In my earlier post i showed how the Bismark in GWX did not leave at all, it was there, but didnt leave. It is now May,22 and im looking near Norway and all over the North sea and guess what...not Bismark. In the end this leaves me dissapointed!

Are you referring to this post?

I didn't realize that we were on a seven-minute timer to address such matters.
:shifty: :shifty: :shifty:
Now, so that you know... due to scripted traffic in the vicinity of harbors, historical task forces may (or may not... depending on various scripting issues) be represented at anchor in harbors... later disappearing from view in the harbor... to reappear outside the harbor, whereupon they begin their journey to whatever operation is involved.
Doing things this way prevents all sorts of traffic jams etc. (each ship's AI includes object avoidance routines, which given the WRONG circumstances, can cause them to run aground etc etc etc.)
In future. A little patience from you will be better received. We are happy to answer questions time permitting... but we are not required to do so.

Not a very big error is it? Honestly, I couldn't care less about Bismarck in port, just be sure to be were she is on May 27th (is that the date? I'm getting old).....

It is not an error as I explained in my last post on this thread... it was done purposefully to prevent other problems.
Regarding the exact date, I'd have to look it up too. She does appear for her final date with destiny in the correct place and time though in the GWX campaign.;)

XXX Will we get a comment, thanks for clarification or even an apology from mstgnymike? The world wonders. XXX

Does the Bismark make her "appointment with destiny" in stock SH3 or are these scripted events only to be found in mods?

In stock SH3.......
Sure does. And not a thing you can do to save it.
It has sunk, it is sinking, it's going to sink.
Nevermind have fun taking on British BB's.

Well, that's a gamebreaker for me. Since it's a fault with SH3 and not any mods, I want my money back and I'll never buy another UBI product again!

lads, you really should be prepared for the fact that not everyone think that GWX is flawless. To tease them won't make it better.

GWX is not without faults
true
But personally i played stock SH3 for so long it was a major breath of fresh air when GWX made the scene.
I think what you have now is a hand full of players who go buy SH3 and load up GWX right away... they have no basis of comparison. (not that im implying thats what this post is a spawn of).
Its kind of like the brat in high school who gets a corvette at 16 years old VS. the average Joe who drove a rusted rambler for ages before getting a nice car.

:hmm: GWX is not flawless,
but GWX is on the Edge of the limitations the SH3 engine alows to mod.
I dont know how the Ships work in SH3,
but my guess is that the 2 ships you're looking at (prinz eugen&Bismarck) in the other thread are without waypoints, so you can sit there as long as you want maybe they drift a couple of mm's but they are defintly not going to fire up the engines and move away.
my guess is you have to enter the game (spawn) on the right date a couple of minutes after the Starting hour. to withness the Bismarck starting its journey.

Sorry i havent been on in a while, but i would like to thank all of you GWX users or GWX team...ers? for clarifying this for me. I get what most of you are saying as far as the behind the scenes physics goes with the game and what not so thank you for that. Mabye if i was a lil more patient to see it somewhere on its path to Bergen who knows. But thanks guys, apologies and i will continue my use of GWX because everything else i see is great!
