GentleKaluens,
About the time when I installed TDW's new UI (Ver4.2) plus the latest Patcher, I noticed that my SSS enemy radio intercepts from ships I have torpedoed have ceased. I no longer get them at all.
I still receive all the historical intercepts and the in game Sub sighted intercepts. The only ones missing seem to be the distress calls from my unfortunate enemy ships.
I am primed of the destroyed marks problem and that one is not a very big deal.
I have tried going back to using the previous versions of FX as well but that hasn't helped so far.
I would like to know if everyone is still getting these SSS intercepts from their sinking ships.
My working mod list is below. I am re-arranging these so they are not set in stone. Also, I have temporaraly taken out IRAI while I figure this out.
If I place FX and the UI above Mighty fine crew and MCCD I get the navigator calling out every waypoint I place on the map. If I could kill that permanantly I would be indebted, because placing the UI above mighty fine crew might help, I just can't stand to have the navigator calling out everytime I place a waypoint on the map.

If anyone can let me know any personal experiance in this matter, I would owe them many rounds.
Thanks.D40 :up:

I have basically same mods as you but more. The distress calls are totally random in my experiences.

Yes, I used to get them every so often. I have my UI set to pick up radio intercepts at 100% and even with it set so high, I haven't had one of these in months. So, I'm looking for something that changed but there has been quite a lot of changes. I didn't notice this right away either which might have helped.
So now, eveytime I sink a ship, I get nothing. No distress calls at all.
This is going to put a damper on the ships calling for aircraft from local airbases I suppose. :hmmm:

Modlist is hard to read even when I enlarge it. If I see list correctly, FX update can be updated from v21 to v22.

Add IRAI (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=171973) which add planes, etc. to find you. I have seen planes come after me when a distress call (or flare?) happens.

I notice this too some weeks ago, there wasn't any destroyed messages shown, I have the possibility at 100 % as well.

As far as I know, the reason is NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_ByTheDarkWraith. This feature worked in the previous version, but for some reason not in this. We can only wait for TDW's return to fix this.

Mikemike, Yes I mentioned that because although I knew about it, this problem seemed to appear at about the same time. I can do without the destroyed marks for now. But my SSS intercepts...I can't understand why these are gone as well. I haven't read anyone else having difficulty with these. I am still getting things like distress flares ect... but the SSS intercepts have ceased.

Thanks Rongel. Yes I've tried FX 22. In fact I'm going back to it today because going back to v21 didn't solve anything. Sorry about the list being so small.
