I did notice that unique ship names are not displayed even though I checked that option (maybe b/c all kills were ~2000 tons, i.e. small vessels?) I fire up SH3/GWX from the Cmdr GUI and again I have zero kills in base before patrol #2. I checked the my C:\Users\myusername\Documents\SH3\data\cfg\Careers \Johannes Vogel\patrols_0.cfg and it does not show the kills either. That patrol was a wash 
Essentially Cmdr is recording my talley but SH3/GWX is not registering the kills.
Ugh. I smell a reinstall of everything coming, what a PITA....
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions would be much appreciated. Maybe I'm just noobing something simple eh? I installed Cmdr 3.2 then GWX3_SH3Cdr3.2Files_v1.2.exe as specified.
P.S. I read the included Cmdr .pdf, so I don't feel like I missed a procedural aspect.
EDIT: Rechecked my "patrol history" in-game and the list of kills is present. Also, my renown went from 30 pre-patrol to ~230 after even though renown gained shows "0" after patrol 1. Now I'm more baffled. Where's the disconnect? |
This stock SH3 bug is explained in both the GWX manual (page 14) and the SH3Cmdr manual (page 30).
The bug will only appear if you make changes that alter the patrol start date. Adjusting crew, or using alternate crew config files, do not alter the patrol start date. Upgrading equipment (includes adding an emblem depending on mod installed) will alter the start date.
Obviously prevention is the best cure, but if you forget to follow the advice posted by others, then another way of "fixing" the problem is to save your game just prior to docking upon your return. If you then get hit with the bug, simply reload the save and dock again. This appears to rectify the problem.
