Default Question regarding Flags and Nationality

I was heading towards my patrol area off the Western Africa coast, and I stumbled upon 3 ships, all with French flags. Now, after I sunk them, it showed their icons as green (allied I believe?). I thought the French were enemies, id be glad if someone could help my confusion here.

I was confused as well, especially given that there is a small typo in the flaggen sheet for GWX 1.02.

bigboywooly was kind enough to set me straight:

"France is allied 3 Sept 39 till 25th June 40 and 26th Aug 44 till war end"

Between those two dates she's neutral.

N - neutral, A - allied (enemy)

Ja! You don't want to sink the guys who keep us well supplied with wine, cheese and cognac.

Default Copy new updated flags to paper

The new updated manual for 1.02 has the same layout of the updated flags which can be seen at the periscope or uzo screen. Simply center this page on your computer screen and print a copy on paper for easy reference.

Or go to

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Menu\Gui\Layout

Open the Flaggen.tga and print that

Default Flaggen Sheet

Excuse my ignorance, but Ive been looking all morning for this "Flaggen Sheet" & I cant find it.

Please someone tell me how to access it?

I looked at the maual, cant find it, looked in game at periscope & UGO & saw no access to it, looked in the directory through explorer...there I found it, but couldnt open it .

frusterated

On the top left hand side of the periscope screen you will find a drop down tab. Just drag it and you will see all the flags you need

I do believe there is a typo/mistake on the Flaggen.tga: It lists France as Allied, with date ranges of 03/09/39 - 25/06/40 and 26/08/40 - 31/12/45. I think the 26/08/40 should be 26/08/44.
