[HEMISENT]

Jason. Thanks for the help but the cutting and pasting didn't do it either.
I located the problem tho.
I recently had a huge sound problem with the new SH3 Commander 2.3.
After much trial and error & repeated uninstall/reinstalls I ended up reinstalling version Commander 2.2 then using the auto update function. After fiddling with certain tc settings the sound problem was solved.
Somewhere in the updating process the "Medals & renown.CFG" file got disappeared.
I just did another fresh install + patch + tested the game to run ok then
went thru the entire SH3 Commander 2.3 install routine. The missing CFG file reappeared I then followed your instructions and now the fatigue options are showing as advertised.
Started a test mission in game and everything plays ok so far. Thank you for your help getting it up and running.
**Feedback on the new version of damage mod.
After getting the test mission up and running I ran a little test on a Type VIIC. I took the boat up to flank speed and t-boned an escort. The escort was physically sitting on top of my bow section on fire. All sorts of grinding, screeching kept the boat at flank speed grinding into the escort waiting for all sorts of damage to appear-minor damage showed to upper casing just below deck gun. absolutely nothing else.
Using your earlier test version I performed the exact same test impaling my boat into an escort, as expected I received all sorts of serious damage + flooding to all forward sections. All repairable but still heavily damaged.
Did you strengthen up the hull above what the test model used?

Thanks again for all your effort and quick response to my inquiries.
