Need Help GWX 3.0 No enemy in Career Option

silenthunter3grh · 09-30-09, 05:15 PM

I need some advice and help. I downloaded the GWX 3.0 to my silent hunter 3 several weeks ago. I really enjoy the new scenarios. My problem is this; when l select "single missions" most of them work fine, but several ( 3 or 4) of them function normally EXCEPT the intended enemy doesn't show up! If l select "Career" instead of single missions

, the enemy is never present. I can park a sub on the surface at the mouth of the Thames in broad daylight and nary a DD or aircraft shows up. Obviously something has not loaded right. Any help would be appreciated. Tks

checked the date? when you start a career at in 1939 you begin in august, before the war breaks out, like the real U-boats did. So there is no enemy.

I took your advice Ford Perfect and tried careers in 3 later dates (during the war). In all cases l had no enemy traffic nor any axis nor any neutral shipping or aircraft traffic. In Career mode, I have the sea all to my self. I transited the English channel in broad daylight with no contact. There simply is no other traffic of any kind in the Career mode, other than my lonely sub. I am desperate for some help here

. Just imagine, starting a war and nobody comes!!! Help Help ?

Do you have friendly traffic in the harbors?

How much RAM is in your computer?

Try the Naval Academy missions

A nice one to run is the Flak Artillery training.

If no enemy planes don't show up you must have serious Problems.

If you enabled the Black Sea or Indian Ocean campaigns, you will not have any ships in the Atlantic.

Precisely......check you have neither installed.

You might also want to consider enabling the merged campaign, this will ensure every theatre is populated, but is heavier on your computer resources.

Ok thanks for the help. My Ram is 2 gig. No friendly traffic in harbour. I wil take HW3 advice and disable Indian Ocean campaigns. I give it a try now. Tks again. grh
