View Full Version : Change bases

As I was leaving Willhelmshaven in late August 1940, I got a pop-up saying the base had changed to Lorient. The mission is to leave and return to Willhelmshaven. The last time this happened I returned to base and the next mission was 'Null'. I restarted the mission and returned to Lorient and it said I was in another base after mission. The next mission was again 'Null'. What do I do?

when your in base try transfering to a new flotilla? that could reset the base option.
alternatively if you have sh3 commander for your next mission choose the option to be at sea rather then in base and try returning to your home port or wherever they tell you is your current port see if that helps?

When pop-up saying this, you must return to Lorient - a new base, not to the Willhelmshaven, because after this messege You aitomaticaly starting from the other base. Now is like this. Willhelmshaven is the other starting base now. Lorient is a home base from this time. If you have problem with this, try to leave Willhelmshaven and then save game on the sea [minimum 50 km from land or other unit]. Then load Your seaved game again. :know:

"Null" info sometimes is display, when a base is not operational yet.:yep:

On some careers I've noticed the game decides to tell me that the flotilla has been disbanded and I've been transfered to 1st flotilla at kiel at the start of every mission no matter where in the war I am. To counter this I have to retransfer back to the flotilla I was in at the end of every mission. :damn:

If your playing GWX3.0 and use SH3 Commander.....don't forget the CFG file.

I started my patrol in jun `40 nad base of the 2nd flotila has changed to lorient.So when I allmoust run out of fuel I docked at Lorient but I did not get any sub impovmernt just like I docked at neutral harbour.
Just refuled, restocked my torps and left in one day apart.
How to change my base.Should next time i just hit the esc and exit patrol and then when in Willhelmshaven try to change the foltila or what.
Should we not be transfred automaticly?

Gwx and Gwx mods are all I use. And, yes I have the SH3Commander32 thing with the GWX files. Sometime tonight, or maybe tomorrow, I should dock in Lorient. I'll see what happens and let you know.

It enhances your gaming experience if your using GWX3.0 and SH3 Commander.....correct flotilla dates, ship names etc.

We are not talking about this one right?

http://files.filefront.com/GWX3+SH3Cdr32Files+v12exe/;13164096;/fileinfo.html

If not, the one you are talking about was not mentionned (to my knowledge/to me anyway).

If different, are we supposed to installed it after the actual SH3 Commander 3.2 and the CFG (file above)?

Thank you

Will see what Jakethescott will observed when trying it again.
For my case I cannot talk about it really since I am just starting. It is just that I am starting with the 2nd flotilla (so can have the same problem later on - hope not).

I suspect the two files may be different (312KB and 476KB).....my link was to the 'Official' CFG.

Ok,
So can I apply (Install) it above the other cfg (the 321kb one).
Is it going to change my present Log Book?

Thanks
Jimbuna
08-20-09, 01:18 PM
My advice would be to overwrite the one already in but only when in port and preferably at the commencement of a new career.

Jimbuna,

Again just want to make sure here ( I am doubting myself now...)
On the official site of GWX3.0 Gold, it says to make sure to apply the CFG that I put the address above (the 1.2 version).

You are then saying that I should apply the other one (472kb) instead (or overwrite it? Correct?

Thank you

I docked in Lorient and everything was as normal as could be. Had access to each option and even got a new patrol area. Go figure.

Anybody install a different CFG Ver 1.2 (with SH3 Commander 3.2).
Jimbuna has installed a different one. So I am just confused to which one to use.

Thank you
Mau

Jake,

You had the same config as before (same CFG - or you changed to the one of Jimbuna?)

08-20-09, 08:34 PM
I had the one that I downloaded from the Grey Wolves site that had a link to Jimbuna's filefront page. I installed it on top of the SHIIICommander 3.2 I had already installed.

Check you don't have the Alternative Flotillas mod enabled. Failing that you have a corrupt installation....only one solution then.
