I don't know what version of DW you play (RA, LwAmi or vanilla) but not all missions or campaings are compatibile.

Earn your dolphins in RA had small bug. You probably have no patches for RA 1.41 because bug was fixed.

Fix on RedRodgers forum

Better way is to patch RA

patch #1
unpack in Game folder then run Patch_DWX_141_1.bat file In Graphics subfolder

patch #2
unpack in Game folder over Patch#01

Where's a good spot for a newbie to start out?
In my opinion best way is to learn all about one sub. For example - LA is best for learning.
You don't need to read all 500 pages of manual - just all about prefered sub.
This is important because all submarines have little different sonars (sensitiveness, max speed without "washout" and most important: frequences of detecton)

For detection you should use Towed Array sonar in narrowband mode. Which one (port or starboard) - that you have to read from manual
If you play with autocrew option on sonar station you can't work manually because AI all the time changes cursor possition on displays. So turn ON autocrew only if you are on map or other station. When you do sonar job better is turn OFF Autocrew.
