Default Conning tower insignia - GWX

I began a career in April 1941 and after my second patrol I added an insignia to my conning tower.... the 2 little black fish. However, they do not show up on the side of my conning tower when I am in a real patrol... nor does any of the other 2 insignias i tried to add. They show up as a small black dot when i am in port looking at my boat in the torpedo loading screen or in patrol in the damage control/crew management screen but when I am on the lower deck by the deck gun or looking via the external camera, they do not show up. Any ideas anyone? Also... is there a new version of GWX coming out? I downloaded my version from GameShadow a couple days ago and I didn't know if there are any new versions or newer downloads/expansions that are worth while. Thank you in advance for your valuable opinions!

Have you added the 1.03 patch ?

Get it from below my signiture

There was a fix for the tower emblems released in 1.02 IIRC
The 1.03 patch contains all previous patches

One question about conning tower emblem and GWX 1.03 - I've just finished first patrol and I have no emblems in "special" folder for choose. Is it correct?

OK, but what about "special" section in game? I thought exactly about it.

I thought that you had to complete a few patrols with renown awarded to get your emblems?:hmm: It's never been available to me after the first patrol.

The emblems should be there at the beginning of your career but it's not adviseable to upgrade anything until you have completed your first patrol

Yeah, I've always had the option to add an emblem right off the bat, but I don't. I wait until after the first patrol at least.

Usually after that first patrol I put the emblem for my Flotilla on. It isn't until I've sunk more than 50k tons or so that I allow myself the priviledge of adding a personalized emblem.

I've finished first patrol with stock GWX (no emblems at conning tower, but available in "special" section), patched to GWX 1.03 and upgrade uboot (KDB), but I can't see any emblems in "special" section .

Default no personal emblems only flotilla emblems

I have noticed a similar thing since GWX 1.03. I use SH3 Commander and in GWX 1.02 the specials folder held all the emblems. Now when I started my second patrol and was outfitting my U-boat. I opened the specials folder and only flotilla emblems were there no personal emblems. I am sailing with the 2nd flotilla so I added the second flotilla emblem. I will try again for a personal emblem when I start my third patrol since I have some good tonnage this patrol.
