I have GWX, but my deck 105mm is 110 rounds of HE is there a way that you can increase the rounds to 180 rounds, In the U- net web site those boat had 180 rounds on the boat.:oops:

Groovy For about 1/3 of the scenes in the film HMS Buctouche K179
played the part of 225 as she was away at the time on Navy buis.

HMS Buctouche was Captained by my wifes grandfather and I came across
mention of the film while researching buctouche all though it turns out
my wifes grandfather had left buctouche and moved on to River Class Frigates
at the time of filming.
Ive never seen the movie.
id love to find a copy locally.

as for your IXB issues MY Uberboot is a modified (just a teeny bit) IXB
Have a read through uberthread and let me know what you need.
for your own boat, If I dont know how I probably by now know who does
know how.

http://www.uboat.net/technical/guns.htm

"The much wider deck of the larger I, IX, and X U-boats could accomidate the much more powerful 10,5cm/45 gun than 8,8 cm /45 on the narrow deck of the VII boats. These larger boats normally had 110 rounds of ammunition, although the IXD variant had 150 rounds, and one boat, the U-196 (http://www.uboat.net/boats/u196.htm), had 240 rounds."

Based on that, might it be possible to have some sort of IXD-specific loadout for the 105mm gun in a future GWX update?

Which file in that folder would one open to modify the shell count for the deck gun? The only one I know of is the Main.cfg file, but those values are "universal" for all the different Type IX boats.

Change the number in Basic.cfg if you want
Will apply to all users of the 10.5cm gun though

Forget that file :damn:

It's this one C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIIIGWXv102\data\Cfg

Then go to Basic Cfg :up:

Ah, thanks. I was thinking each boat had it's own deck gun ammo count, but they don't. :(
