It is a GWX file that's corrupted.

Check this link for the MD5 Checksums: http://www.thegreywolves.com/downloads/

You will need MD5Mate (which is not available form that page) but you can get it here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/.../MD5Mate.shtml

Then, open the application, choose each GWX file and use the corresponding checksum to do a compare. The application will tell you when it finds the corrupt file.

Thank you very much Danlisa

I noticed that it seems like their depth charges seem score direct hits anddestroy the sub time and time again the instant I rig for silent. It's disappointing because I've nailed four and five ships out of a convoy only to be killed right away. Is there anything to tweak down the AI? I play for fun. Some realism is great, but hardcore isn't for me. Things have gone down this way three times with different convoys.

When they are pinging you,wait till SO says "depth charges in the water" and then flank ahead and turn.Some may not know how it all works and its very hard even when you do.Put your SO to follow nearest warship and try to keep him at your 180 to reduce the amount of your ship your presenting.I do not go deep and survive this way(around 70m tp 100m)....though I am in Type IIa with max 100m dive depth and am not even past 1941.

Questions about GWX and maybe someone can help me.First is that I have my own modded typeIIA that I install into the game but it says that it reinstalls the scene.dat from GWX.I want that except for the 20km part...I want that to stay.Is the 20km just a single line tweak and if so can someone point me to where in scene.dat its located?

Second is....any way to put the Ai to use the sensors I have onboard to their maximum perfromance.I actually hate when I submerge and ask my SO to do a sweep and he states no contacts.Then I get on it and there everywhere.Why is he a SO if he sucks so bad?

[Jimbuna]

The 20km scene dat was a major improvement of the GWX3.0 release.

Add TMT ThomsensShips fix provides compatibility for Thomsens Ships (or TMT + Thomsens Ships) and Extras for the Wilhelmshaven campaign.

I believe instructions are included in WB's documentation for the latter, and you should consult them to be sure, but if I remember correctly the correct order is:

GWX 3 Wilhemshafen,St Naz,Schluese and xtra ships V6
Extras for the Wilhelmshaven campaign v2.4c
TMT v2 + Thomsens Ships
Add TMT ThomsensShips fix

In any case the fix must be enabled after you enable the two mods whose conflicts it fixes.

Acording to the manual,if I do understand well,you only have "+rewon" if you pass each tutorial from the Naval AcademY and if you skink Ships.O.k

Now I have a doubt:

Do you have rewon penalty if you return from patrol whith some torpedos on board??.

Thank you for your help.

Anvart did mods that will give you the pennants and flags noted on the picture plus control of the radar antenna:

For a super duper "upgrade" to your turms, check out Aces' stuff:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=184132

His Super Turms mods are compatible with Anvart's mods and a whole bunch of others, plus he gives very detailed instructions for their use and order of enabling. You can use his own mod list, which he usually posts along with the instructions, as a reference.

Also: there is no renown penalty for returning to base without using all your ammo, you just won't get the reward you might have gotten for using it successfully.

As far as I know the only way to lose renown is by sinking neutral or friendly ships, or a hospital ship regardless of its nationality.

If you are playing GWX, you can earn all the available Academy renown just by passing the test from one of the tutorials. (Take the navigation test, it's the easiest to pass). The others you can just use for training if you want.

[Jimbuna]

In GWX the option is, start with 500 or 1500.

So when after firing torpedo's I dive at full speed, the escorts won't hear me, and the convoy won't start zig-zagging..?

The escorts will know you're around if you get a hit, and will come looking for you. And IME, yes, the convoy may change course or scatter somewhat if only to avoid hitting damaged ships that are dead in the water or no longer making speed.

The idea is to get away from where you were when you fired the eels, and go deep - and then rig for silent running - all of which will make it harder for them to figure out where you are by the time they know to start actively hunting for you. It's not a guarantee of a successful getaway, but if you have to escape submerged it's your best option.

What I meant is; won't the escorts hear me when I dive with my engines at full speed, before torpedo impact?
