GWX 2.0 question

[Greek_Destroyer]

How can i put arrows at the map to know where the contacts go?

[Jimbuna]

Use the tools at the top right of the navigation screen http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

There is a ruller tool that can be used to create lines. You can make arrows using it if you wish

A Kaleun should improvise with the tools he has at his disposal http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

Blue line??? no idea what you mean.... is it a vertical line ? then it's the line instersecting greenwich.

With regards to the blue line....a picture would better explain what you mean :hmm:

You can use torpedoes and deck gun but the AI can only use the deck gun. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

I'm guessing he means the loading screen.

That line tells you how much of the game is loaded, and how much farther it has to go.

[Jimbuna]

Should that not be red ?....or have you installed a modified one ? :hmm:

[Greek_Destroyer]

LOL i mean at the navi map

[Jimbuna]

I'm still unsure what your referring to....unless it's the grid square lines (rectangular shaped patrol areas) :hmm:

[Greek_Destroyer]

how can i take a pic and where do i find it and how can i upload this

[Jimbuna]

Whilst looking at what you are trying to describe, hit the Print Screen pad on your keyboard, open Paint and paste the image there. Save the image and visit the site ImageShack to post your screenshot here :up:

Something is telling me you're talking about the Greenwich Meridien but as Jim suggests a screenshot will help us help you.

[Greek_Destroyer]

here is the screenshot

thanks for your help
The 5 ships sunk near Scapa are 5 destroyers which were destroyed by me at 80 realism
And other. I found a mistake at the game. A message came and it said ship sunk at an71 which is land

[melnibonian]

here is the screenshot
Yep that's the Greenwich Meridien for more information check this http://www.nmm.ac.uk/server/show/nav.2857 and this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_Mean_Time

EDIT: If you're Greek (wild guess based on your nickname ;) ) you can actually read about the Meridien in Greek as well http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%83%CE%B7%CE%BC%CE%B2%CF%81%CE%B9%C E%BD%CF%8C%CF%82 ;)

[Jimbuna]

Agreed......cos I also checked :lol:

I'm glad the Chief approves ;) :p :D

If you are desperate about seeing an arrow on the map you can also use the circle tool. It's radius is shown as an arrow and can be pointed in any direction. And can be moved while still keeping the orientation if you move just the center. The circle itself is something you must take for granted.

[Jimbuna]

Agreed......cos I also checked :lol:

Should you not be below decks testing :hmm:

[Greek_Destroyer]

Click on my signature or on the link below and download the bin files and the executable again. It seems that you have a corrupt download.

[Greek_Destroyer]

that means?

[danlisa]

that means?

...follow the instructions on this page:

what i miss with that prob?

[Pisces]

what i miss with that prob?Looks like the bin files are corrupt or not even there at all, or where the GWX installer expects them.

[Sniper_Fox]

i think trying to torp a sub is a useless gesture... as a crashdive can be done in roughly 30 seconds, and unless the bastard is within 400 metres, well your under the waves and the torp by then!

plus if im at periscope depth my hydrophones would pick the dasterly boat up, and if im above, well i usually have an officer on the bridge, or im on the bridge then.

how can i send messages axept from Contact report(btw this can be used only in for convoys) & patrol report? I mean how can i ask for escort and etc?

You can send a contact or patrol report with your radio. If you're close to German occupied lands (France, Norway, Italy or Greece) you might get air support. It's not too common but it happens.

[Greek_Destroyer]

contackt report only can be usen for convoys?

[Jimbuna]

Anything that floats ie: ship sub etc. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

if there are planes?

[melnibonian]

if there are planes?
You can still use it but it will not help you much. Once you see planes dive deep and don't spend your time reporting their position. They're your Number One Enemy :yep:

Not much point :nope:

First off, it's primarily a sub sim, and secondly, the plane s would more than likely be gone before Bdu received your radio message. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif
