So, I have a few questions. I have Silent Hunter 3 plus GWX 3.0 plus SH3 Commander, and when I start a new career...well here's an example...
I set my start date to be August 8th, 1940
I select the 7th/13th Flotilla and a VIIC as my U-boat type. I also choose a U-boat number (Let's say 77)
Now I understand that I must go into the game and the changes will take effect after I start and save from my first patrol...however...
When I exit SH3 Commander and come back, none of my settings have taken effect. The In game date will still be October 1st of 1940, and I'm given a VIIB, and not the VIIC like I chose.
I also have to reassign my same U-boat number.
To add to this, when I select "Use Real Ship Names" in Captain's log, and sink ships, I do get ship names, but never any crew information. I decided to post a screenie of my personnel file when I review it after updating it. You'll see the ship names and original type and tonnage, but no crew lost like other people's logs I have seen here...
Please ignore my meager 10k tons...

Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance Kaleuns!
