GWX 3.0 GOLD issue/glitch

ryanglavin · 07-06-09, 03:25 PM

I have played gwx 3.0 gold for awhile, but 1 thing prevents me from starting my career's in 1939.. why is it that it starts on august 1st,a month before the war started, instead of september 1st, the day the war started? i just don't get it, it might be a glitch of some sort.

Its not a glitch.You can chose to start either at 1st september or 1st august.In SH3commander IIRC there is an option what month you want to start.SH3 engine howeever does not allow specific date just the month.This is done i belive to test out your sub, or if you want to get to some port while there is no war. You may wish to consult howeever the gwx manual.It will give you invaluable information.

If you use SH3Commander you can start on the 1st of any month during the war. Unfortunately the game only allows starts on the 1st of the month.

Get SH3Commander and get control over a lot of stuff.

GWX 3.0 August start allows you to position your boat in the Western Approaches prior to the 3rd of September. Makes it easier to get started on sinking ships.

I have had problems lately getting a Sept 1st start date also (using SH3 Commander 3.2). When starting a new career, if I choose Sept 1st, the game starts on Aug 1st. I can choose Oct 1st without a problem. This is very strange as in a couple of previous careers there was not a problem with choosing (and getting) Sept 1st.

Cheers,
Scott

Have you downloaded the GWX3.0 CFG file for SH3 Commander?
