There is a mod that adds it back into a GWX install, however it does this by overwriting the basic.cfg file which means that any other changes made to it manually or by other mods are also overwritten if you use it.

Consequently, I don't let any mod overwrite the basic.cfg, I just edit it manually if a particular mod requires it to be changed.

The basic.cfg is in the /data/cfg directory of your game folder, and the section that needs to be changed is the third one down that looks like this:

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=0
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=0
CompletedPatrol=0
NEUTRAL=-1
ALLIED=1
AXIS=-10
WrongShipSunk=-5000
FirstRankRenown=100
SecondRankRenown=350
EndCampaign=-5000

That would be the GWX version, where the value for the first two lines is set at '0' - thus removing the renown awarded for reaching one's patrol grid and completing the 24-hour patrol respectively.

Change the first line under [RENOWN] to

RenownReachGridObjCompleted=500

and the second to

RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=200

This restores the stock renown awards.

Don't bother assigning a value to the next line, which was supposed to reward renown for returning all the way to base at the end of a patrol. That feature never worked, not even in stock.
