1 April 1940 - End of War?

[K Gunz]

Dear Karleuns,

Me again :).

Well, my problem this time is that having sorted my Graphics Card issue and started out on a completely fresh career - every time I dock at Wilhelmshaven I now seem to be retired and cannot continue with my career. I am told that the war has ended :damn:.

I have noticed that even though I have been away on patrol for a number of weeks, all of my saves say 1 April 1940 (the day I started the patrol).

I have completed several patrols and each time I dock, I then have the potential of losing many thousands of tons shipping sunk. Has anyone any idea of what is going on? I would appreciate any advice:-?.

Oh, I am running SH3 Commander with GWX2.1. I have a number of other mods too but all of these are fresh installs.

Regards

April's Fool? :p

Maybe he set TC nearly to 'c' during patrol. So time on his sub passed slower than in home base... http://img103.exs.cx/img103/6541/biggrin.gif

This is no April Fool I assure you.

I have completed my first patrol after a complete refresh of all of my mods, GWX and just about everything else I can think of. In other words, a complete fresh install. Every time I complete my 1st patrol with a lot of tonnage sunk, the next time I log in to start Patrol 2, I am told that I have retired and that the war has ended.

Thanks very much Reise,

It worked. I followed the advice as per the SH3 Cmdr instructions and I am now back in business. I am indebted to you Herr :up:.

Thanks again.

I was going to suggest that perhaps you were so successful in your first patrol that the Allies surrendered. :huh:

:rotfl: LOL CRM,

Yes, the Allies ran away scared :D. The problem was that I didn't fancy such a short war :down: - that wouldn't make such a good sim would it?:p. Thankfully it is now all sorted and my career is now back on track. Gute Jagd mein freund.
