Default I made a mistake

quote=I'm goin' down]I have a Gato. But since I have not been available in the game yet, I downloaded another -- a Gar. I just checked and I need an emblem for it. [quote]


The Gar that I downloaded had an emblem. I reported that it did not. My mistake. Sorry. My apologies. I downloaded a Porpoise and loaded it with JGME before I read your post that said it would overwrite any skins that I have already activated. That was the problem. Once I deactivated the Porposie and the Gar, and reactivated the Gar, the emblem was in the conning tower.

When I report to Cinpac is their a board where I can see what I report. Otherwise, how do I keep track of my total career tonnage sunmk, damaged, etc. ? I assume their is a site, but I have not found it.
In the game when you start a patrol (or end one) and you are in the office, you can go to the "leader board" to see what your total tonnage is. It's on the left hand side of the wall facing you as you sit at the desk. Just click on it and you'll see it close up. You can also keep an index card or a note somewhere with the numbers by patrol and add them up to get your total (kind of like a captains log for his career).[quote]


I never knew you could click on that item. Nice surprise, even though it said, "No aces yet."

I just started playing SH4 again, I usually don't play the campaigns but since I found this mod I gave it a shot. Now my question, how do I know if it was a small merchant ship or a Merchant Maru (with my low ton total of about 10k for 2 merchant and 1 warship, I'm thinking it was the small ones)

Edit: oh some of those maru ships are 19tons....yea I'm going to go with small merchant ship

Default My Gar and its alleged stern mounted DECK GUN!

My Gar list of boat equipment says it outfitted with a stern deck gun. I clicked it and it filled the slot at the bottorm of the screen that lists equipment on the boat. It is early 1942. I wanted to see my beautiful, lethal new deck gun when the boat was surfaced, so I went topside and looked for it. SURPRISE! THERE IS NO DECK GUN, SIR (wtf?). I am going to file a lawsuit against the boat manufacturer for breach of warranty. Where is the DECK GUN hiding or why is it missing, Sir? If it is indeed on the boat, why won't it load or appear on the deck?

Default Inferno

Digital Trucker can best answer your question. I recently asked him the same qustion in a PM. He responded by saying fishing boats, etc. were small merchants. Everything else in the merchant fleet is a Maru.

I generally consider Sampans, Fishing boat and trawler small merchants and anything bigger that isn't built (or retrofitted) purely for combat to be a merchant.

Really good question, but we need to forward that one to the deck gun department Which mods are you running and which version of the game (1.5 = Uboat missions add on).

Oh that's good to know.
I'm running the game stock (except for this mod), the game keeps on giving me missions to japan, first one was a patrol off the main island, this one is deliver a agent just off of Osaka (at least I sunk a 5t med Euro composite merchant ship)

Default reply to Digital Trucker

Of course, I am playing with the Gar you built.

I have SH4 1.5, U-Boat Add-on, RFB with the current patch and hotfix, and current RSRDC. Mods - Hitman's in Game TSAC (torpedo spread angle calculator) v 2.1, USS 206 SS Gar Combo Fooskin. And of course, RSM by none other than Digital_Trucker!

Also, for some reason the slide rule no longer appears on the map screen but that is probably a RFB issue.

I would have installed Fred's radio stations but the downloads were corrupted, so that is on the back burner. I gave up on Captains Girls and GIEP. Actually, I was using the photos and drawings with a mod that displayed them at intro the game, but my computer crashed, and I am not going to waste my time with it again.

Doesn't sound like any of that would cause a deck gun to disappear, but you never know. Did you, by any chance, move the deck gun from the front to the rear when you got it? Sometimes that will cause strange effects.

Did not move the Deck Gun. Do not know how to move it.

too bad you can't slap people with it...well I guess you can slap ships with it
time to go and sink more ships (I need to work on my intercepting)

Also, I like the emblems / forums sigs that you make, they look nice
