Yup, if you go at the historically correct times, it's actually fairly easy. Just follow priens path.

You'll find HMS Royal Oak anchored there from the 4th to the 14th October.

after explaining to my wife why i was cussin at my computer and how my nights may get a lot longer due to long patrols, i have SHIII running exactly the way i want it to. SHIII+GWX+Merch Mod=the best u boat sim ever. I had some issues getting the merch mod to work, had several CTD's and reinstalls but i read through the merch mod thread and it mentioned a 4gb patch tool for 64 bit computers. I downloaded that and made it zap the sh3.exe and fired up a career and then after a lengthy load time during which the progress bar stopped where it had been ctd-ing, and all the sudden...Not so long ago...., and bam in in the control room and everything is working.

So to people who are having problems getting the merch mod to work, try the 4gb patch. especially if youre on a 64 bit system. It worked for me.

VERY VERY satisfied with shIII now.

Just one quick question...i enabled AA through the NVIDIA control panel, as well as AF, but does SHIII support AF? The AA makes it look gorgeous, but i didnt know if AF was working or not.

Now you need SH3 Commander to give all those merchants the proper names. And crew. And cargo.
