Holy Crap...

U-94, first patrol in Nov. '40.

Just loaded GWX. My first convoy was a big 'un, and managed to sneak in with decks awash. I spotted a whaling factory ship and dove to periscope. Sank her and two others, for 20,000 grt.

Then one of those effing Black Swans came in and cleaned my clock. Smashed three of my tubes to kingdom come. I had to go home early, after he bashed me around a bit more. That S.O.B. could shoot!

This mod is the cat's pajamas!! Kudos all around!!

Returned home with 31.8% Hull. At least we got an extra bit in time in port, and we could get caught up on our drinking and fornicating.

Speaking of hull damage, where do you find it at now in game? It used to be on the crew screen, but is no longer. What I do now id after being DC'd, I take her down slow to see how far I can take her.

You need SH3 Commander and then set the game options so that Hull damage shows. It will then be there in the crew screen.

Yuppers--GWX is the its!

Smokin':
You can only guess at the damage. However, when the game loads, the lenght of time lights blink and sparks fly will give you an indication of the severity of the damage.

When (if in my case), you get back to base you get a report that shows hull integrity as well as all the other metrics from the patrol.

Hmmm. Seems someone is a convert.

Glad to see you enjoying the GWX experience HMCS!

Is "decks awash" a GWX mod? I am in stock SHIII (for the moment, while I figure things out), and I was on the surface, and tried to set my depth down just a hair, and it closed up the hatch. Is that what is meant by "decks awash"? I guess I imagine I should be able to stay on the bridge.
