The first time I was re-acquired, the second, one of the remaining destroyers was returning to it's possition arround the convoy leaving only one corvet in a rough sea which I easily lost.

It's ironic as this is a Sub Sim but NEVER save while submerged. Very weird things happen. You have experienced one bug due to this, the other include the crash dive of doom and corrupted saves.

For clarity, this is a Stock Issue.

Also it is not advisable to save near convoys, harbours or sinking ships, and during combat. Usually I only save on the surface in the open ocean.

Bug Report

Got through the straits into the med. Dock at Anzo for fuel, eels, and beer.
When we got back into the boat, it was half in half out of the water & taking damage.

Tried to get the people on the dock to help push us back into the water, but they just laughed at us.

I think this is a common issue with SH3. You cannot dock to a port that doesn't have a flotilla assign to it. You can dock only to actual bases and milk cows.

Yes there have already been 2 seperate threads with these problem highlighted
One docked at a town

And the other at a port in the med and started on land

Mel is right in that is only safe to dock at ports with uboat flotillas assigned
However since the second episode I have changed all friendly bases to have the facility to dock at and start in the water

This fix will be part of the Jan 31st update

That's great news BBW it will make our lives in the high seas easier

Pretty nasty bug, imo.

How typical...we all arrive home safe and sound, and the band is playing on the wrong pier.

I've noticed that time compression is extremely slowed down, so much that going on patrol is far less fun than it was before. My machine, a P4 3.4 GhZ with a gig of RAM, /crawls/ past 512. Vanilla SHIII is smooth as silk. I never get the slightest slowdown ever, even in the middle of convoys. Is there any tweak that can be done?

Tikigod · 01-17-07, 09:12 PM

Not sure if this is GWX related. My friend and I have both experienced rain and lightning on a clear day with GWX install. It will be clear, sunny, and calm seas and yet it will rain, thunder, and lightning (flashes). There is also sound effects of a strong storm yet the weather reports calm weather. As you can see there isn't a cloud in the sky, the wind and water allows me to go on deckguns, and the sun is out in the open just over the reflection in the water.

There is a freighter stuck in the southern sea wall at Fremantle (It's an Australian, the red Southern Cross flies from the still visible mast).

I´m not sure if is a GWX issue but the map weel seems to be with 2 degrees of error.

i take this screenshot whith rudder amidships and heading 270 . is normal or perhaps a optical effect ??

danlisa · 01-19-07, 04:32 PM

This is not related to GWX as such. It has always been present since the bearing overlay mod was produced, we have learned to live with it.

bigboywooly · 01-19-07, 05:39 PM

Dont try and cover up the sinking of a neutral by blaming the overlay
:rotfl:
There was a bearing overlay fix for GW1.1a
Not sure if that will do GWX too

Myxale · 01-19-07, 07:01 PM

Hmmm
Ok I have ask
Any other sound mods installed ?

SleazeyWombat · 01-19-07, 07:17 PM

One is the Lutzow, and the other is a smaller ship (I forget the name). Both are awash, with parts of their weather deck submerged. When you are anywhere in Kiel harbor, you can hear the sunken ship noises (groans, grinding, metallic screeching).

I'm not 100% sure this is incorrect.:hmm:

Wasn't the Lutzow docked in Kiel for some months after heavy damage?
