Default My Favorite GW Moment :)

I love all the harbor traffic in Grey Wolves, especially the friendly U-boats, and the little surprises that keep popping up when you least expect them - Ran into this the other day while leaving from Lorient:



Hey - we can dream, can't we?

Oh well i didnt look at it that way. I just thought that was just an unusual moment in the movie. A boring moment in other words...

Dont get me wrong, i reckon das boot is there alongside all the great war movies. For realism, you cant go past das boot.

You got me all excited for a moment...I thought it was a GW "easter egg."

That is a cool scene in the movie.

Yeah - for sure - I was using Paint Shop Pro and I've never really gotten the hang of layers and transparencies. Something went wrong when I finally managed to get the sub picture layered under the binoculars and left a white ring around the edges of the binoculars and it was too late and I was too tired to do a decent job of fixing it. The worst part is I was clicking around trying several things and now I don't even remember what I was doing when I finally got the sub into the binoculars view

Maybe one of these days.

Thanks for the offer - I might take you up on it when things slow down here a bit (lots going on with graduations, birthdays, and family illness at the moment) - haven't been underwater for a couple of weeks or so now, and will definitely want to get some game time in before messing around with pictures again - at least long enough to see if I can finally get in a shot at this convoy I've been tracking through heavy storms for 4 or 5 straight game days

Where has all the traffic gone?

I have GW supermod installed and I've played a few patrols with it.
Now i'm on to my third patrol, but there's no traffic anymore?
I did install a mod called "Real Battery life" so could that be effecting the traffic at harbours somehow??

Thanks,

Johnny

The Real Battery Life is not affecting harbour traffic.

-Have you installed anything else?
-When you say "no traffic", what do you mean. There are no ships / subs at all? 2-3? 5-6 stationary ships?
- Which harbour is your base?

Yes I mean that there are no ships/subs at all in the harbour area.
I'm based at Lorient and the year is 1942.

No not that I remember installing anything else, besides some manual tweaking in the config files to experience the XXI early in the war, but that was a different campaing.

One other thing that bothers me is that on my last patrol which lasted for about 3 months, I received no Convoy reports at all. not even once.

Thanks
