Help me help the Bismark!

I was hoping to get in on the Bismark action in the campaign that I saw a few people talking about in this forum last week. I timed it right I thought, with a patrol starting May 23rd 1941, and should've gotten the first command from Bdu to help the Bismark May 24th, but nothing ever happened. I should've also been notified later to help the Bismark at 8am in the NE section of grid BE53 on May 27th (according to testimonials by players here at the Subsim forum during their campaigns), but again nothing happened. My patrol grid assignment was in the area, just like those other players said. So why didn't the Bismark orders come through?

Could one of my mods be in the way or something?? I've got SH3Commander, but with none of the mission assignment changes turned on, shouldn't effect my main campaign assignments. That's the only mod I've got installed besides visual effects stuff and misc, nothing that should change campaign patrol assignments.

Please help!

Rubini added the Werebusung (Norway Invasion) and Bismarck scenarios into Harbour Traffic 1.47. You'll need that to see them. You'll also see dozens of ships and planes when you enter and leave a friendly port.

Thank you, you're right. I feel stupid now. I read some past posts, one guy said he only had the Iub and got it, but I think he was mistaken. Everyone else had the traffic mod installed, and I did too, or so I thoght! I went back and took a look, and I had it in my JSMGE mod folder, but it was still in RAR form, and not unzipped!! That's why I was confused, I thought I had everything I needed and still wasn't seeing the Bismark. I falsely installed Harbor Traffic mod about three patrols ago, and I kept thinking man, it doesn't seem to do much!

OK, so now I reinstalled and have started the mission over again.
