I am having a problem with map contacts with olc.

I aint got none!!

I recently dusted off my copy of SH3 and decided to upgrade to GWX3 (it has been a while since I played SH3

Installations seemed to go ok

SH3
GWX3
New version of SH3 commander
OLC gold

No other mods

I set my realism just like I used to do in GWX2/olc

Limited Fuel deselected
No map contacts deselected
No event camera deselected
No Stabilize view deselected
No weapon officer assistance deselected

Everything else selected. Under my old configuration this gave me a realism rating of 80%. This time, however, it is up to 95%

The problem is when I play, I have no map updates. I have tired rebooting, selecting and deselecting No map contacts. No change.

When I select No map contacts the realism does not change. I don't remember this with my old version of GWX.

I tried using the world famous forum search function on this forum,but could not find any posts that addressed this

In my desperation, I even read the manuals!

Since I could not find anything that addresses this, I have come to the conclusion that I am doing something simple but wrong.

I uninstalled OLC and the problem went away. So what am I doing wrong with OLC.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

How do I get my map contacts back?

Another question. Like I posted, it has been a while since I played SH3. Did war careers always start 1 Aug 39? I don't seem to remember that from my past play. Seems kinda weird to have to kill a month just to get to the sinkin stuff?
