I'm one of the few that liked the Star Shell in the locker. I know it was not realistic but it was convienent to light up a lone target on a dark night for gun action. I haven't tried lately with the new GWX but can it be done? In the past I could get star shells added to the locker but could not load them in the deck gun. Any Ideas?

Don't know why you think having star shells on board is not realistic. GWX designers didn't put SS in their mod because they couldn't find any reference to any boats carrying them. However, several months ago a few references were cited in this forum, of subs carrying SS IRL. So, some boats had SS on board on some trips, others did not. We don't have enough data to say much more regarding timelines or frequency.

Different boats used different loads. Some carried only AA shells for their deck gun. Some carried AP or SAP. Most had some HE.

Sorry, cannot help re shells in lockers not being loadable.

I also need some guidence in this area. Night time even under cloudless full moon calm sea is almost completely black. I can see the stars the moon, but as for ships not a chance. I can bearly make out the silloutte of the bridge crew. This makes for night time engagements almost imposible.

I'm guessing this is a graphics card issue. I'm running with the ATI x1900. Is it possible to adjust the video card brightness settings some how?
