Default Where is my Biscay cross?

I'm in late 42. I am sure the cross is on my boat. I don't see it. Is there a mod to place the cross on my deck? Or is it just assumed it is there? I'm on a type 9c.

Looks like this :



Primitive radar antenna made out of wood strips with wire around the outside edges. Something like a kite.

Playing NYGM the cross usually shows up at the proper time. I do not remember having to upgrade the equipment on the Uboat screen. It's been a while since I had a career in late 42.

I know what it looks like, but I meant where is it in my game? It is not on the deck of my IX. Is there a button to bring it up like the radio antennae or periscope? do i need a mod?

In SH3 in the Career Menu, select the Uboat, and under Equipment look for Radar Warning select Fumb-1. That should do it.

I did that. I have the cross. It is not on the boat when I play. Which is why I ask is there something like a button or a shift-"whatever" button to make it appear? Or do I need a mod to make it appear?

Here's a what it looks like. It resides on the port side.




Try the Funkmate icon and click on the radar button and see if shows up.

Tried that too. I did upgrade my tower before I got my fumb. May that did something to it.

What Type IX and turm are you using. I'll try and duplicate your issue. Every version of IX I have in late 42 has the cross.

Good Hunting,

Biscay Cross is on my IXC with Turm 3. Patrol start day is 4AUG1942.

Not able to replicate the issue.

This is how SH3 Commander shows the Uboat set up:

[PLAYER_SUBMARINE]
ClassName=SSTypeIXC
UnitName=U-155
Z01=data/objects/Turm9c_3_hd
M01=NULL

PatrolArea=CA29
DeparturePointLong=-404249.000000
DeparturePointLat=5727370.000000
DeparturePointHeading=200.000000

You can see the cross listed. Do you have the same showing in SH3 Commander?

Go to SH3 Commander in your Documents folder where your careers are kept and follow SH3/ Data/ Config/ Player Settings.

Good Hunting,
