hai there,

I'm Matador and play SH3 for many years. I am not sure though how many, but i guess at least 4 years. Dont always play it, might leave it aside for a year or some. But recently i wanted to reinstall on my vista pc and ran into problems. So forced to search for a solution i found this webzite, and what a blessing was that!

By now i Play SH3 with 1,4b and with GWX which i must say is stunning!!! respect for its builders :salute:

Anyway, i started a new campain about 2 or 3 weeks ago with 94% realism in '39 and just finisched my 8th patrol. Sinking 11 Merchants (60713 Tons) and 3 warships (3150) with a total of 2196 renown. Unfortunately my the last torpedo i had (a single one) hit a fleet carrier (22.000T) east of Stornoway (Isle of Lewis) but, did not had "the lucky hit" to sink it with one torpedo.

I have a question though. I found this tutorial on the net:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9q7nac1Jps

Though in german (i am dutch) it did the trick to learn Manual Targeting. What i did not understand, nor found, was what kind of MOD he has showing the "fuel, engine and ammo rooms".

QUESTION :hmmm:
Due to this tutorial i really increased the tankers shot with just one torpedo. If somebody knows how to "import this information" in the ESB i am all ears....

It would have been great to have sunk that Fleet Carrier with just one fish :yeah:

Cya,

Matador

Hey, Welcome Aboard!:salute:
This is a Tutorial that i uploaded, it's very helpful as long as you use the Notice function on the right upper Corner. Some GUI Mods disable them.

Hay, i have a question. I only return to base when i am instructed to. This will happen after you send a status report after you ran out or torpedos. But sooner or later it is going to happen i have valuable torpedos onboard which might not be worth it to sink a small merchant.

Does it affect renown if you RTB with live torpedoes on board?

In game its easy to just shoot around, in reality one would think twice before "wasting" a torp...

Aye
