This has happened before i updated GWX and after it.

Upon leaving port I would test the AA and the deck gun. Both AA guns work just fine. The deck gun says that it has no ammo. I checked the inventory and it does have ammo for it.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Try clicking on the ammo-icon when using the gun.this should fix it.

Be aware, SH3 still has the AI recognition bug. If you load and crew that deckgun, they will fire on your own escort.

I forgot about it and blasted my escort coming out of Keil yesterday. It's pretty funny actually. :p

It's pretty funny actually. :p:o:o I remember from GW 1.1a: Leaving port (think it was St. Nazaire) and manned the deck gun, just for fun. Then the crew started firing at merchants docked in the harbour! Did they actually fire at the enemy, or is that a bug? It would be rather stupid for a british merchant to dock in one of the kriegsmarines largest u-boat ports...!:yep:

If I'm reading your post correctly Deep-Six you have already 'clicked' on the shell icon (HE)...then it should work mate :hmm: ...have you checked it is manned ?(sometimes it is possible to think just because your AA is manned then the drck gun is too)

As for the SH3 'AI recognition bug'...thank god I've never actually experienced that one :nope:

Thanx for that info, good to know.
Am I to understand a maned flak gun would fire on friendly planes? :hmm:

ps that escort crew probably swiped the crew's superstisious rotting bananas. :huh:
