I'm currently playing vanilla, but have been downloading GWX for a couple of hours, should be finished reasonably soon.
Already been checking your site over, I find the tutorials especially interesting. 
As for the external torps - I keep auto-reload on by default and also tried to reload those ones manually while surfaced, but no dice. I was in a pretty bad storm at the time (which never seemed to dissipate, no matter how far I sailed), so perhaps that could have made reloading impossible? I know I can't man the deck gun in such weather... |
Welcome aboard.
The weather in stock SH III is awful.
I think that you'll notice a big improvement in GWX; it's much more variable.
To add more realism I took a tip from others & only transfer external torpedoes in calm weather with the deck slightly submerged (6-7 meters). From what I've read this is how they did it in real life.
Play around with stock until you get the hang of things. GWX makes a lot of changes that may throw you off if you just dive in to it right away.
