My crew has been shot up and killed in a few careers,but I never seen a wound medal, My crew has been straffed so many time I lost count,but yet not 1 sailor or officer has been awarded a wound medal in my last 5 careers.

You're right, they did do "Front" patrols, but the numbers I see are different than the ones you post:
U-1: 1 patrol, the others were training.
U-2: 1 patrol, the others were training. It says 2 patrols, but the listing says otherwise.
U-3: 2 of the "5" were combat patrols, the other 3 were training.
U-4: Again the actual listings are at variance with the stated "4" patrols. They list 6, 2 of which are front line.
U-5: Again they say 2 patrols, but list 5, and only one of those says "Front Patrol"
U-6: Same thing-2 patrols, but list shows 5, only one of which is war patrol.

Which one is correct?

But you're right; they all did at least one war patrol.

I also posted before I saw your post about looking for the other thread.

I apologise. I don't usually react that way.

Well, usually, but not most of the time.

Well, most of the time, but certainly not all of the time.

No probs about the apology mate. :up: Though Steve, I think you are reading Uboat.net wrong. It lumps patrols together according to when it went combat operational etc...

That is of interest to me !!

:arrgh!:

If you use SH3Commander, at the end of a patrol it will give you a name of the merchant/s you sunk (in the patrol report). I like it personally...makes it much more submersive.

At the risk of putting this thread back on the rails . . .

I think the crewman has to be wounded at the END of the patrol for SH3 to award the badge. If his wounds are healed during the patrol, then SH3 won't give him the badge. You should use SH3 to award him both the wound badge as well as the U-boat Badge (since earning the one automatically earned you the other).

Correct. He can be all but dead during a patrol but if he was healed before docking, no wound badge for thee.

Not necessarily - it was still at the the Commander's discretion, thus not automatic. It's why SH3Cmdr does not force a u-boat badge if a wound badge has been awarded. I may, however, add a "suggestion" as it would prolly be a mean Commander that said no.

Hehe, I just remembered the main reason why SH3Cmdr uses IIB numbers instead of IIA numbers...

It wasn't due to a lack of IIAs in combat, it was simply due to the fact that the 1st Flotilla didn't have IIA's, they only had IIB, IIC and IID's!

Medals for the Kaleun
 
SHCommande3 is great, however it doesnt permit me to adjust the medals I receive personally. SH3 seems ahistorical, after my second patrol (sinking 17000+), I received the ICII, ICI, Knights Cross, Knights Cross with Oak Leaves and the War Clasp. At most, I should have gotten the ICII after the 1st patrol (17000 also) and the ICI and War BADGE after the second. Any way to adjust this? Thanks.

brunowe 06-27-06 09:32 AM

I should mention...
 
...that I'm using the Grey Wolves Mod. Should I be discussing this in that thread? Thanks.

Personal medals and ranks are controlled in Basic.cfg.

Code:

[PLAYER_RENOWN]
AcademyBonus=1000
RankLevel0=0; SCORE
RankLevel1=1499; SCORE
RankLevel2=9000; SCORE
RankLevel3=15000; SCORE
MedalSettings0=0.25
MedalSettings1=0.5
MedalSettings2=1
MedalScore0=3000;2 class, SCORE
MedalScore1=7000;1 class, SCORE
MedalScore2=15000; knight, SCORE
MedalScore3=25000; oak leaves, SCORE
MedalScore4=37000;swords, SCORE
MedalScore5=50000;diamonds, SCORE
MedalScore6=70000;all, SCORE

Note the values may differ on your install.

Simply adjust to your liking. SCORE = renown required.

You could add this block to SH3Cmdr's "Basic changes.cfg" file, which will ensure that your preferred values are used regardless of whatever mod you install. However, it would still be *very* prudent to review after installing any new mod.

You are right, the 1st never came out of Wilhelmshaven either....they came out of Kiel for the first part of the war. Suppose they put it there as a starting patrol for new players, as it was easier out of Wil then Kiel. :)

JScones 06-28-06 05:41 AM

Yes. And RUb and subsequently most other mods change that too! ;)

brunowe 06-28-06 09:47 AM

Thanks!!! (NT)
 
Much appreciated.
