Ok - wasted a couple of hours getting to the assigned grid - re-clicking the time compression to 1024 everytime something's spotted but too far to chase after - wasted another one zigzagging through the grid - over like 3 days (Patrol objective was to patrol for 24 hrs). Didn't come across anything - so decided to go get me something close to the British coast - all I got was a nasty little patrol boat - too fast and too small to engage by a torpedo - tried and got close - by that time I was desperate to hit anything - even a friendly unit. So I surfaced - hoping to man a deck gun to blow that f. annoying thing out od the water, but the sees were stormy so that was out of the question - by that time they damaged me a bit so I had to dive and time-compress back to St. Nazaire like a loser with nothing to show for and 3 cigars left - after arriving to the same dock I left from - nothing happened - I expected some message to say patrol completed and refueling and repair.

What did I do or not do ???

Also, my GWX has frame rate problems sometimes with 2.8 GHz, 1 gig RAM and 512 Meg NVidia 7600 - well above the recommended - any thoughts ??? No problems with vanilla before ?

Thanks guys...
