GWX2.0: Black Sea patrol grids missing
 

As per the instructions in the GWX 2.0 manual, I used JSGME to install the "GWX Black Sea Campaign Files Only" option prior to starting a career with the 30 Flotilla in Costanza.

According to the manual (p.172), there are three (3) Black Sea patrol grids. On each of my missions, I've been assigned a grid to patrol, but the grids do not appear on the Navigation Map (F5). Is this because the limitation in SHIII mentioned on the same page (i.e., you can't earn renown in the Black Sea), or am I doing something wrong?

I started my career in the Black Sea too and I have the same problem. Not only is it not listed on the map but I also don't seem to get any credit for reaching the grid.

So far, it's all pretend on the grid stuff.
The grids have been elusive till lately.
;)

As the enemy have been too, sailed into Pola, surfaced in broad daylight and it was deserted. Not one contact the whole patrol!:damn: :damn:

Isn't there a JSGME mod that needs to be enabled for the Black Sea?
Hell, I only try to KEEL you in the game!
Not track campaign stuff!!!

well, im using the light harbor mod and the black sea mod and ive been finding ships, heck i found a task force and got 2 destroyers couldn't get to the troopship. (but the game crashes crashed!!) so, im finding paydirt... actually just ran into a neutral hospital ship and spared it...

There Ya go!!
Whip those Pups into shape gimpy117!
Slackers!!!!
Be More Agrii;.....ummm ???
Well you know!!!
Where's me Rum?
I didn't post that did I?
DAMN!!

Hi!

There is a stock Silent Hunter III limitation that prevents GWX from displaying anything but the stock Silent Hunter III grids. Page 174 shows the grids on a map of the Black Sea since we couldn't display them during the game.

Ummm if you have the Black Sea files enabled you wont find anything in Pola as its in the Med

Oh lord, it wasnt pola, it was Poti!:oops: :oops:

Sorted!:up:

Sorry, but I'm still a bit confused. My assigned patrol grid was OST and even when I go to the very east side of the Black sea I don't seem to get credit for reaching the grid. Is this supposed to happen due to the limits of stock SH3? Page 43 of the manual did say that the Black Sea campaign files were supposed to work around the limits that prevents gaining renown.

Correct.

Patrol areas outside the Kriegsmarine grid map as presented in SH3, do not yield renown points for reaching a patrol destination... and secondarily the same is true for spending 24 hours in an assigned patrol region outside KM grid areas.
