CCOM 12.0

[FUBAR295]

You can’t start career Directly in flotilla 1...you have to start career via Training flotilla, and only type II available here is IIB (don’t have IIA)
I’m using SH3 Commander with Ccom12, and there are some special files to put in there...


Fifi,

Thank you for the explanation ... I will look SH3 Cmdr. I am certain I used the SH3 Commander file that came with the CCoM zip file. I will reinstall just to be sure.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295

[Aquelarrefox]

Thanks Fifi, but I do not have GUC installed on CCoM and that issue is still there.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295
i bealive you were using guc

[FUBAR295]

i bealive you were using guc

No ... I removed it as there are other small issues, though minor, just not worth looking into to fix.

I tried the Type IIA without GUC with a balnk campaign file and had the turm issue.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295

[Fifi]

I’m afraid you have an issue on your side, as i know Rowi wouldn’t have released Ccom with a turm issue...maybe a new scratch install would solve it?
Don’t forget to install SH3 Cmdr and its files

You are more than correct that doing a new install will fix the issue.

I agree, that Rowi would not have released a mod with kind of issue.

I will also reinstall SH3 Commander. :up:

Good hunting,

[RickSarg]

My issue was a conflict between my game Basic.cfg and the Basic.cfg installed by commander which I have now corrected.

I recently met this unsuccessful "Fix for CCoM12". https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2675613&postcount=1
I suggest once again to look at your notes and share what you fixed. To not do the job twice.

:Kaleun_Cheers: finally got around to installing CCoM12, WOW, very nice and a very easy job to do. I have been playing GWX3 since I began playing SHIII and have modded that up pretty good. I felt like a new look, so CCoM12 was it. Other Super Mods were considered. I've now on my 3rd day of my test drive and all is good. Couple of saves and reloads, couple of long pause's and running higher (then what I use), time compression's. Love it. I will admit, that I made my first run to AO83 without torpedoes. Then I remembered reading about that. But anyway, just wanted to say, its worth give'n this a try, you be glad you did. Here is my mods list, any suggestions are welcome. Also if I use, "CCoM_RadioMessages_English", do I need "CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_GROSS-FUNK_120". Not really sure if CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_GROSS-FUNK_120 is necessary if I play in English.

Hi mate, you can replace your Ccom_RadioMessage_English by this mod: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2670197&postcount=8

You’ll have then full radio messages in english...it’s a traduction of GrossFunk :up:

You’ll see Ccom12 is awesome mod, my favorite with NYGM :yep:
But don’t try to use the German Compilation U-Boat with it: CTD for sure...
Be careful with planes! They are deadly!
That’s the only mod that render the planes threat so well to me.

If this post is in the wrong place, sorry. Please redirect. I don't have technical question or modding question. I have a CCoM12 gameplay question :
OK, I've been playing around with CCoM12 for about a week. Loving it. After forgetting torpedoes on my first attempt at a career. I completely restarted from scratch, I know, but hey I’m a newbie at CCoM12, I needed a do-over, but anyway ..... Now I'm about 25km east of Bornholm as instructed. looking for 2 target ships. How do I ID the target ships ? There are 3 Russian warships very close, We are about 25km east of Bornholm. Not sure what I'm looking for. Are they marked. Hey, sorry if this is covered somewhere, but my search has come up empty.
thanx

I usually skip this starting part, but the targets are only merchants stationary :yep:

I had the same question - was almost ready to just fire on the 3 ships, but then spotted the two stationary ships just north. Also I forgot torpedos, so nobody was in any danger:)

Allerdings muß ich gestehen, daß ich den TKSS18- Mod von Ahnenerbe mit eingebaut habe.

I downloaded this mod: http://brat01.mybb.by/viewtopic.php?id=197&p=17#p93556 and just deleted the submarine folder. I now get the splashing over the conning tower with the original waterstreams from CCoM. The Submarine waterstreams from this mod would need a lot of work to get it working with CCoM

I was just poking around this morning and found this mod for "CCoM 12. It's called TAM 2.01 +UCS 3.01 kombi with WS-GUI". The readme was in German, I can figure that out but it was very brief, so I don't think it would explain what this mod does ... thanx

Moin, moin ...

TAM = depth-dependent messages. There I deactivated the standard depth messages and added new ones from films, plus some specific ones. UCS = User Command Sound, because I added missing sounds for TDC, UZO, Bulkheads, Flags,Radar,Periscope etc., with a special mechanism that I worked out for it. that's roughly the content.

It’s a Tycho patch, like for ARB gui.

[Mad Mardigan]

Just started to get this (CCoM v12) set up, and am having some.... fun... getting it finalized.

Main thing is, initial set up of SH3, I set it to open up in full screen & no problems there.

I set up the base mod, setting up the h.sie options up, before activating that. I tested it in training... & when I rang up for flank speed & checked the periscope... it did NOT go back down as it should.

So... what do I do to resolve that issue... & I have all the boxes check marked, just as I do, what with LSH3-2015 (& periscope goes down when I am going flank ahead in it...).

2nd issue have run into, is with attempting to activate the

'Ahnenerbe_WS-GUI_1920x1080_for_CCoM_by Wurmonkel'

On activating it, I checked the h.sie options & recheck marked all as before, as for some reason, it ended up being unchecked except for the '4GB patch' & 'move 1WO to Bridge'.

After activating & double checking the h.sie options, I end up getting the message of

'can not initialize 3D engine' error popping up.

Mod list is as follows:

Make sure your wanted speed to down the periscope is correctly set in the Hsie.ini file (main game folder, open with notepad)

As to Hsie options disappearing after activating all mods, it’s because you have other SH3.exe somewhere in a mod that overwrite the one you checked options...
Best is to have only one SH3.exe in main folder and delete the other (s).
Check all mods and see where is hidden the culprit...

Last, if you want to fully enjoy Ccom, you should not have the last 4 mods, all overwriting the environment folder and scene.dat … and probably messing up original Ccom distances & sensors interactions; but that’s only my opinion :03:

Make sure your wanted speed to down the periscope is correctly set in the Hsie.ini file (main game folder, open with notepad)

Ok, went into that & double checked the settings... minimum was 4.5 & max was set at 7. As I know of it, that is the same as what is in the config set up with LSH3 & it works as it should. I hit 7+ knots and the scope won't stay up in LSH3.

Now, with testing CCoM, using the nav training, right after submerging, as instructed, speed was 8 knots, I checked the periscope &... it did not retract as it should have, like it did with LSH3.

As to Hsie options disappearing after activating all mods, it’s because you have other SH3.exe somewhere in a mod that overwrite the one you checked options... Best is to have only one SH3.exe in main folder and delete the other (s).
Check all mods and see where is hidden the culprit...

Went through each & every folder in the set up... & only 2 folders have any sh3.exe's in them

1. CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Release_120_BASIS_EC

2. Ahnenerbe_WS-GUI_1920x1080_for_CCoM_by Wurmonkel

#1. apparently needs that SH3.exe, in it, for it to function. Tried removing it & got message saying no sh3.3xe found or some such, when I went to use the h.sie option selector.

#2., have no idea what to do with this, as I found something like... 3, in this folder. Folder is set up as follows:

data(folder)
Sh3 Patcher (folder 2 sh3.exe's located in that folder, in addition to the patcher)
d3d9.dll (app extension)
d3d9 (config settings)
sh3.exe (3rd one in the folder, total.)


Last, if you want to fully enjoy Ccom, you should not have the last 4 mods, all overwriting the environment folder and scene.dat … and probably messing up original Ccom distances & sensors interactions; but that’s only my opinion :03:

I cleared out those mods mentioned, went into doc's & deleted the save game folder, before attempting to rerun SH3.. with the WS-GUI folder added in. Same end results last night.

Have wiped the whole shebang out & going for a fresh install... the SH3
copy I was using was 1 from Steam, BUT.. had used SFSF to 'divorce' it from steam... looking into it, somehow it had a MODS folder in there.. & in that folder, somehow LSH3-2015 Full was sitting in there... so no idea if that was causing issues or not. I've since abandoned using that copy & am using 1 from Ubi, that I have now.

Don’t forget there is a full map mod available somewhere, if you are using the nice Ahnenerbe_WS-GUI_1920x1080_for_CCoM_by Wurmonkel
I have that downloaded, but... if not mistaken, seem to recall something about needing to have Tychopatch applied for it to run & it mentioned before doing the tychopatch, to have h.sie done & Stiebler's h.sie addendum patch (if intended to use that 1) done 1st before running tycho's patch... again, as I understand all that... if not, then by all means show me where I am, please.

:Kaleun_Salute:

As it stands, have the Ubi copy of SH3 set up, followed the directions to this point of SH3Cmdr set up... & fixing to proceed the rest of the install from that point... following the instructions found in the C. document of set up for this mega...

M. M.

:Kaleun_Salute:

[Mad Mardigan]

Edit, from original post...

Ugh... what a major pain...

Ok, it took some finagling... BUT...

I got past getting the WS GUI mod that came with CCoM to work upon activation... & solved that bloody error popping up of 'can not initialize 3D engine' that kept popping up, when I went to start up CCoM SH3, after activating that WS mod. :D

Craziness of it all, was... taking the exe, after running the main mod 1st, slapping it into the sh3 patcher, located in the WS GUI mod, running that then locating & deleting that other sh3.exe in the main folder, replacing it with the sh3.exe I created then sliding the patcher folder out of it... all BEFORE activation. Add to that, of going into the control panel & in the section for 'change resolution' & then having in that area, of creating a '1920x1080' setting... then activating that.

&... the rest as they say, is history. It works now...

Now, am wondering, if I go into the control panel & create (even though My native resolution is there... a 16x9 set up, select that... then go into the d3d9 config file & change the res there to My native res... :hmmm:

As is, everything with running this in 1920x1080, is way small as all get out... & I already have enough issues as it is with My eyesight. :D

M. M.

:Kaleun_Salute:

Ok, in control panel, would NOT allow Me to create another res profile, so... I tried with the d3d9 config, of setting the res there to 16x9... & No go... whole
loading menu, view in sub, after choosing the nav training, was offset, way, way off to the right & upwards... so part of the HUD controls were cut off.

So, exited, deactivated the WS mod, went back into the config files & reset it to 1920x1080, saved & then reactivated it. Left the control panel set to native 16x9 res & retested using the nav training once more... &...

Success.!

Everything works as it should now.... Beware enemy ships, here I come... to wreck your day... or night... :haha: :arrgh!: :D

Not to forget the other add on's you did with the antenna & guns rework, as well as the enemy AI rework... which to be frank, have yet to have gotten that far into the career to face off on them... YET, being the operative watch word here. :yep: :shucks:

On that note, I do have a few... questions, mostly concerning that map add on & 1 or 2 others aside from that.

Though I'll wait, after getting some rest... as it is late, where I am. :yep:

Seem without problems.
They are not doubled anyway, just a bit increased.

Also forgot to ask this FiFi; how does this env. handle snorkeling with the larger waves, i.e., crew jumping back and forth between engine rooms ?
And does H.sie's night vision fix work with it ?

Not sure about that. More test have to be done.

[Fifi]

If you think there is a problem with waves settings, best is to delete my scene.dat from mod.
You’ll be back with stock Ccom waves but with new env colors etc...

Forgot to say, if you delete my scene.dat, you will still have Rubini volumetric clouds as they are in scene.sim :up:

[Mad Mardigan]

Ahoy...:Kaleun_Cheers:

Ok,

Having gotten some rest, I did say I had some questions...

To begin with, pertaining to the map add on, noted it includes Tychopatch. Reading further in it, it lists it is to be ran last, in patching... meaning after h.sie & if chosen to use, after stiebler's patch for h.sie, so... if I am understanding that correctly, 1 would need to run 1st h.sie pach, then (& this is where I need to know definitively, which patch specifically...) stiebler's patch addition to h.sie's patch,& then finally Tycho's patch.

Do I have that in the correct order.?

If so, then My follow up question to that, would then be.. which of stiebler's patches would be an appropriate 1 to use, as from what I can see of there are several that were done by stiebler.

Then there is ship mods to consider (& this includes aircraft, as well, as 1 of the ship mods I've seen, includes revision or rework, if you will, in regards to aircraft for SH3.) IABL's MFM (last version I know of, from them is MFM v3.3?, I believe) & WB's USAM... not sure of any other ones, outside of those 2...

Then, what of mods for giving it a whole... Das Boot feel.? :hmmm:

What mods would be considered as being known to be workable with CCoM v 12.?

I haven't added in anything else, at this point, outside of the other add on's you did Fifi, with the antenna & guns rework, as well as the enemy AI rework... oh, & the torp load out mod & sailor steve's SH3Cmdr ship naming 1... can't recall right off what the full name is on that 1. That's it...

I may have further questions, but will hold off, for now.. & of course, those might well pertain to being follow up ones to these that I have already asked, for further clarification... :yep:

If it is NOT that 1, can you provide a hot link to the correct version of the supplement, in your follow up reply back... thanks.

As for the others, in red, I will see of running those mods down & include them, in My SH3 mods folder (kept on a different drive than My C:/Games folder, for safety...) to unzip & check the read me's, for inclusion into the CCoM line up... After I have docked, from the current mission I am finishing up now. That, would be of course, the shake down cruise in AO 83, & am headed back to port now (saved, after getting message to RTB & affect transfer to Wilhelmshaven, iirc...).

Onealex is globally more difficult due to weather and escorts, but Ccom difficulty is from the air.

[Fifi]

Ok, after second try, i will not bring GUC U-Boats in Cccom12.
This for 3 reasons:
- First, it will certainly bring many computers to the knees. Stock Ccom12 is already performance eater, adding heavy submarines files could give us same problems encountered in WAC.
- Second, GUC cannot fit Rowi’s work. As example, Ccom type VIIB is different from GUC. Not the same turm at all. Ccom has the most common VIIB Turm encountered in real life while GUC has the very first one that lasted only very few months in real…and I don’t like that.
- Third, the equipments upgrades are very different from GUC ones, as example VIIB snorkel present in Ccom, not possible with GUC…

Too many problems that I certainly will not solve, so best is to keep what we have.
But I have few ideas for nice enhancements … :D

[ericlea]

Rowi passed away in August 2018. RIP Rowi :cry:



He gave a lot of his time in ccom. He was a perfectionist and this can be seen in his supermod.

VIIB snorkel present in Ccom, not possible with GUC…

Many type U-boats were equipped with a snorkel in 1944 and 1945.
https://uboat.net/technical/schnorchel_fitted.htm
But not a single VIIB.

[Fifi]

Yes but in Ccom, VIIB hull has the snorkel emplacement with hole on deck...under the deck plate.
Maybe (and probably) we can’t fit snorkel on VIIB, because Rowi couldn’t make this error.

[Anvar1061]

This is all fixed in models as well as through eqp and Basic.cfg.

I am trying to add the flyout compass from NYGM to CCoM 12. I located menu_1064_768 file entry [G3F I322], which I suspect begins defining this object in NYGM but I do not want the flyout targeting graphics that appear from the top of screen and cannot determine where the compass definitions end and the targeting dials start. Always assuming this is the correct entries.

Also entry [G3F I325] points to a com_direction.tga file which one would expect to find in the Layout folder but there is no file of that name there. A file search found no file with that name anywhere in the NYGM folder.

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance and Best Wishes for a safe and prosperous 2021.

If you're trying to copy and/or edit something out of the NYGM menu file, do separate searches using "Jonz" and "settings mod".
The compass and targeting graphics are under such headers. If you need more help let me know and I'll get actual G# info needed.
Don't forget to also edit the dials.cfg file if needed, after any menu file editing.

If the escorts are harder, that would be a big improvement in itself vs. the usual SH3 <insert version here> cream puffs. :)

We can only make their detection better, not their « thinking » like human...
Nevertheless i think escorts are harder now, assuming when they have veteran/elite skills...because at war start it’s always easier (as in RL)
And i don’t want to make Ccom12 unplayable either, due to unbelievable Difficulty!
As always...compromise!

:Kaleun_Salute:

I know it's mostly about detection, etc. Problem is, they don't and even if they do it's not a concern :) Even the early war is easier than it should be imo.
Late war is too for that matter.
I approach a convoy at any time with the thought of "I wonder how many ships I'll sink this time" vs. the thought of "I wonder if I'll survive this attack". :)
I may try looking at eliminating the affect weather has on escort sensors. I know irl it did but sometimes it's best to use ahistorical methods to achieve historical results, in this case escorts that should be respected.
Anyway, good to hear.

One more model i have to enhance :haha::timeout:

Could someone explain me why they made this strange hull shape for IXC?

[ivanov.ruslan]

Probably due to an increase in fuel at the expense of tonnage
But this is just a guess

[ivanov.ruslan]

Actually not, it is done in order to improve the speed of diving

But the effectiveness of this is called into question afterwards

[Fifi]

Oh really?
Interesting Ivanov...will try to search more infos about this strange IXC hull shape

:Kaleun_Salute:

[Niume]

From U-boat.net forums.

The "Schnelltauchback" modification was applied to some U-Boats in the later years of the war, when the Allies dominated the air. The reloads from external containers to the boat's internal stowage was rather difficult because of presence of the enemy airplanes.
Moreover, the external, upper deck torpedo containers were withdrawn from use because of frequent damages from depth charges. And finally, increasingly used G7e type torpedoes cannot be stored in upper deck due to impossibility of maintenance.
The number of internally carried torpedoes were not increased due to lack of room.
The modification reduced the dive-time because the narrowed shape of the upper deck facilitated the escape of air, which was traped under the casing. This - in turn - shortened the dive-time by about 10-15 sec.



Are the diving times reduced when you use this modification in the game?

I have a renewed interest in CCoM12 since the introduction of Fifi's Enhancement Mod. I don't speak German and the translater I use online is OK at best on a sunny day and smooth seas. CCoM12 is beautiful, to put it mildly and has proven to be very stable. I would like to be able to maximize my fun by being able to transfer to a Flotilla like the 2nd out of Wilhelmshaven and use a Type VIIB or C and eventually to a Type IX boat for east coast patrols for DrumBeat and so on. I'm a tad bit foggy on how this is done. If someone could please get me an explanation on the procedures to doing this or point me to an English manual, or even a brief "how to", it would really help me out. thanx all. Doolar (Jerry)

In CCoM (and also in LSH Edition 2020) you can get new submarine types exclusively in the "Test Center Kiel" (german: Erprobungsstelle Kiel).

This means, that after starting a new career, the "Test Center Kiel / Erprobungsstelle Kiel" must always be selected as your starting flotilla.

Then select the desired submarine type there. Then you have to do ONE test drive with your new sub.

It is important not to change anything on the submarine or the crew before the test drive. Upgrades to the submarine can later be installed in the front flotilla!!!

After returning from the test drive, you can be transferred directly to a desired front flotilla in the menu.

Note: There are no new submarine types in the front flotillas, but exclusively in the "Test Center Kiel / Erprobungsstelle Kiel".

[Doolar]

thanx for the help

If you're trying to copy and/or edit something out of the NYGM menu file, do separate searches using "Jonz" and "settings mod".
The compass and targeting graphics are under such headers. If you need more help let me know and I'll get actual G# info needed.
Don't forget to also edit the dials.cfg file if needed, after any menu file editing.
Having spent hours trying to activate the NYGM flyout compass' in CCoM 12 am at the cusp of giving up. I also tried the GWX flyout compass rose but the NYGM version is easier to read.

If your kind offer of providing the correct Menu_1024_768 entries still holds, my response would be a very grateful "Yes Please".

Thank you in advance.

The compass info is in the menu.ini file in the "NYGM3_F" folder which should be in your mods list. Do a search for "Stiebler" in its menu.ini file and you should get to it.
Starts at G3F I321 through G3F I328. If you've applied any mod with a menu.ini file that overwrites this one you'll have to be sure to use the NYGM one to get what you need.
NOTE: - You can do as he did and add the above blocks to the end of your menu.ini file or insert them directly into the G3F section. Either way, the added G3F blocks will probably need to be renumbered to make it work with the CCOM menu.ini file. Must be in consecutive order from the last G3F block. I.e., if the last G3F block in CCOM is G3F I10, the G3F I321 NYGM block would have to be renumbered to G3F I11 in CCOM and so on for each of the seven NYGM blocks.
With only seven blocks for the compass, easy to do by hand vs a renumbering program.
- Take note also of the necessary .tga files in the blocks. These will also have to be added to CCOM from NYGM if not present.
- This was made to use at the stock 1024 resolution so if you're using a different resolution you'll have to adjust the compasses screen location accordingly. This is not difficult (though does require some trial/error work) and is done via the "Pos" settings line in the blocks.
Hope this helps.

[Randomizer]

Hope this helps.
It did, thanks. Spent all afternoon on it but the process was not quite as straight forward as your description. It would be amazing if any two menu_1024_768.ini files are identical because of mod-soup issues. Finally got the compass to appear and retract but the problem now is that it cannot be set.

The course indicator on the compass remains frozen at North and no new course can be set although the dials.cfg has been updated with what I believe is the correct entry copied from the NYGM dials.cfg.

The fix is probably something simple but I cannot find it or figure out where to go next. And now Cat has plunked himself down in front of the monitor and I expect that he wants to be fussed.

That's usually one of two things: 1. Not all the necessary .tga files got moved into CCOM. 2. The dials.cfg as you think. Iirc the needed entry is the last one.
Also be sure to check nothing is overwriting any of it.

Thanks. The *.tga files should all be there, I copied those from NYGM over to CCoM but did not over-write the existing CCoM files with those from NYGM. Since that dial never existed in CCoM it stands to reason that the additional files from NYGM should include the compass *.tga. Unless there are relevant *.tga files outside of the ...\data\menu\GUI\Layout folder that are applicable to the flyout compass and I cannot ID them.

The Dials.cfg entry was copied straight out the NYGM and re-numbered for CCoM.

Did you also increase the total dials # at the top of the dials.cfg file ? It should read one more than the last dial number.
Ivanov has a good info. link too. Other than that, I'm at a loss though I'm intrigued by the statement "I copied those from NYGM over to CCoM but did not over-write the existing CCoM files with those from NYGM". You want the NYGM tgas to overwrite anything else so they can be used. My overwrite statement was to be sure nothing is overwriting the NYGM ones.
If I get a chance I'll download CCOM and give it a try but the 'net here is slooooooow with all the covid use.
I blame the cat ! :)

[John Pancoast]

Another thing; I don't know what gui CCOM uses but do a search in the menu.ini for the same tga files that NYGM uses.
Sometimes when you mix two different gui parts together there will be duplicate entries in the menu.ini as they may share some common files.
This can lead to trouble sometimes, though usually it just means two of the duplicated item(s) show up on the game screens.
Worth a look though.

[Randomizer]

Problem solved! The solution was in the Dials.cfg, the top line of which needed to be amended from DialsNo=69 to DialsNo=70. The devil is always in the details.

The clue was actually provided by a post from Forum Member Joegunderson linked to the thread provided by Ivanov.ruslan.

So many thanks to John Pancoast, Ivanov.rusland and Joegunderson for steering me down the correct path.

Cat has been found Not Guilty and has returned to a state of slumber.

Odd thing in the current patrol though, I know that you can receive special missions in CCoM but had never gotten one until this patrol. 24 December 1942 and U-741 has been sent to the Portuguese island of Madera to await further instructions. When BdU's orders arrive they are to penetrate the port of Murmansk and attack shipping there. Right! Somebody at BdU cannot read a chart since I was sent to square DH52 from a far more northerly BE56, in a Type VIIC and in gale force weather. Execute the mission by January 3rd. Sigh.

But at least now I have my NYGM compass!

CCOM12_ Type7_ without_ full_ interior :



What does this mod do ?

-It removes the full interior and engines animations from the type 7 (which use a lot of RAM).
The mod allows the game to load and prevents CTD



When to use this mod ?

-It is recommended to activate this mod with jsgme,
When you want to play CCOM12 :
-with an uboat type 7
+
-in high resolution 1920x1080 (Ahnenerbe/ARB or DGUI widegui)
+
-with Fifi_Enhancements.

Use this mod only when using a type 7. No needed with other uboats
(only type 7 has full interior in CCOM12)

(No needed also if you play type7 :
-in high resolution 1920x1080 but without Fifi_Enhancements.
-with Fifi_Enhancements but without high resolution 1920x1080.)

[Soni2]

Could someone explain me why they made this strange hull shape for IXC?


As quoted, the "Schnelltauchback" (Fast Dive Bow) was designed, to speed up the diving process. One of only four surviving Typ IX/C Boats (U 516) where refitted with this modification in the end of 1944 and approximately half of the surviving Typ IX/C40 Boats (19 in total) where refitted from March 1944 onwoards (with a maximum of 16 active "Schnelltauchback" Boats in March 1945 out of 35 active front boats). It also seems, that some new Typ IX/D2 Boats where already commissioned with the "Schnelltauchback" (as stated for U 875).



If I remember correctly, the effect on the diving process was less effective than hoped, but it seemed to improve depth control.

If so, then it’s a Data/Library/Camera.dat problem, you have to open it with S3D and in FreeCam node, check if there is a terrain collider controller (terrain collider name from memory - it stops the camera when an obstacle in the way)
Not a big deal anyway.

Well, i don’t check each time because playing 100% and avoid using external cam except for screen shots, but of what i already saw in my careers, ships hull do have damage decals here :yep: (The few i checked)
So don’t know what to say...

Does anybody know where the deck gun ammunition icons live?

What has happened is that my there are no ammunition icons that show up in the deck gun screen. This gives zero ammunition available. The icons for the flak gun ammo show up as intended but the deck gun ammunition issue is present in all models of Type VII and IX.

The ammunition window and Basic.cfg show that the correct ammo loads should be present.

My current Mod-Soup follows but this is only about half of my CCoM mods. The rest have been rolled back to try and find the file in question.

CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Release_120_BASIS_EC
CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Bunker-Start_120
CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_GROSS-FUNK_120
CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Ohne-Ermüdung_120
CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Ohne-Orden_120

1500 meter bearing overlay
Fubars_XXI_Uupdate_for_CCoM
Ccom_ATM_BlueWater
GWX3 Emblems
CCoM_RadioMessages_English
Ccom12__ExtentedChallengeBlackContacts

I have used Silent 3ditor in the Guns_Sub and Shells files found in the library but cannot seem to find the offending file. Spent over one hour sifting through the menu_1024_768.ini file but could not determine which entries governed the deck gun ammo icons.

It's possible that it has been this way for a while but my last 3-CCoM careers were 1943 and later so no deck guns were mounted.

Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

First, compare the images data/Menu/GUI/Shells /**_ shell.tga with the stock version of the game.

Then look in menu_1024_768.ini Page deckgun [G38 I**]

[Randomizer]

Brilliant! Thank you very much.

The problem appears to have been that the HE_Shell.tga file in CCoM was different than that in the other mega mods. I copied the file from NYGM, which I knew had deck gun ammo to CCoM and all seems fixed.

Was going a bit nuts as I checked the deck gun entries in the menu_1024_768.ini file first and they are essentially identical to those in the other mods.

So the issue proved a minor graphics problem although I am really not sure why. The HE_Shell.tga file in the stock CCoM appeared brighter and more detailed than that in NYGM, which had a washed-out appearance, at least in the TGA-Viewer. But it now displays fine in the game.

So many thanks for the help. Am not a huge fan of the deck gun and seldom use them or run early-war careers but am starting to think that the latter might hold some attractions.

Cheers and Good Hunting.

DEX YOUR MISSING A STEP I BELIEVE

if you did what you said above, "when you dock at milkcow just click esc.click continue". I feel that yoy left out step 2. Don't know if this is the solution but it's worth a shot.


1. When you are close enough, you press ESCAPE, then
2. 'Exit Patrol', just as if you were planning to dock. However... when you are asked 'Continue mission' or 'Dock at U-463' (for example)
3. you click on 'Continue Mission'!!!

is your issue with Milkcows or re-supply ships

I checked the renaming of the re-supply ships in the CCoM12/data/campaigns/campaign/campaign_SRC.mis file and all looks edited on my end. Some mods I've had to edit myself and most have already been edited when H.Sie hardcode fixes were includes in the mod itself. I didn't edit the re-supply ships in CCoM12, they appear pre-edited. I've included the U-Tanker Mod (by Stiebler and h.sie) fron the "Realism and gameplay hardcode fixes for SH3.EXE" below.

12. U-Tanker Mod (by Stiebler and h.sie)
Everyone complains that, when you dock at a U-tanker in mid-ocean, you lose all your current renown/tonnage for medal purposes, you get a full refuelling, full repairs, full torpedo load-out and you lose the patrol grid which BdU ordered. And then you start again from the tanker a month after you docked! (unless using SH3Patrol or SH3Commander). No longer!
Now you 'pseudo-dock' at the U-tanker. When you are close enough, you
press ESCAPE, then 'Exit Patrol', just as if you were planning to dock. However... when you are asked 'Continue mission' or 'Dock at U-463' (for example), you click on 'Continue Mission'!!! *Now* you get 1-4 air torpedoes (loaded only into the first 4 slots of the fore internal reserve - so make sure there is space enough!), you retain the patrol grid details, you
receive some repairs to your hull-integrity (but not to equipment) and you
receive a fuel upgrade, of up to 30% of the full capacity. Unlike conventional docking at a base, pseudodocking is only possible if there is no 'heavy fog' and windspeed must be 10m/s or less. After having (pseudo-)docked at an U-Tanker, you can (pseudo-)dock again after 2 weeks. Also,
you can only pseudo-dock at U-tankers, not at surface tankers (e.g. Brake),
nor at land bases. You can still choose to dock in the old way, if you wish. If you want this mod to also work with surface tankers, these must be renamed e.g. from "Brake" into "U-Brake" in the campaign files

I didn't quiet get the answer I was hoping for. I guess the only other thing to check is to make sure the " U-Tanker Fix is CHECKED in the H.Sie Option Selector for SH3. I have never had to psydo-dock in CCoM12 but it looks as iff the edits to the Surface Re-Supply Ships in the campaign_SRC.mis are done. So all should work. Sorry I couldn't help any more. Jerry
