Now if you could just get my Sargo to tote a bow gun with crew at career start you would be "The man"

Them crooks are gonna charge me cash money just to move the deck gun from one end of the boat to the other I'm just gonna steal the money.

A career start has choices for year, home port, sub type, and renown - that defaults to 1000, but I always change it to 2000 before going into the office because I know they're gonna gouge me to move the cannon to where they should have put it in the first place. If I do figure out how to change the default from stern to bow I'll let you know, meantime increase renown before going to the office, then spend the extra dragging the 3"50 bow gun to replace the stern gun. Better still trade it for a 4"50 bow gun.

It just takes the crew slot away. There is a few huge threads on it about well this fixes it and that fixes it but I looked at some of the files they where talking about and did not see what exactly had to be changed or deleted or if something was said to be deleted I didnt have that phrase in the file. I do know its somewhere in the crew area but its crazy. If I start out in a Sargo no telling how long I am going to have to wait for a Gato to get a Bow gun. I know if you start in a Gar its about 2 return to ports.

I guess I will have to use the rudder alot again

Hmmm, Le Bug. Version 1.3 often did that, I thought it was fixed in 1.4. Still got the bug where you start with an aft gun you got an aft gun forevermore, there's no changing it between patrols. At the very start of a career it works fine though in 1.4, just moves the gun crew to empty slots.

What I always did for 1.3;

Increase renown,

Move the gunners out of the crew slots for the aft deck gun so it don't have a crew.

Spend some renown to slide a fore gun to replace the aft gun.

Check that the slot now says fore deck gun, slide the scurvy swabs back in.

Gots fore deck gun so I can shoot where I'm going instead of where I been.

Possibly that Narwhal is gumming up the works somehow, if I'm reading your previous posts correctly it uses some parts from the Porpoise? If so it might be using something from Sargo as well, and screwing up the base model it's taking parts from. Where did you get the Narwhal?

And Den0, I find it hilarious your subs tower is 818 and hull is 101...

And as for OP, this will likely help me out a bit as I am just NOT used to the early war boats...or..anything at all. I've always played SH3 GWX as my laptop could play it, but not SH4....I'm a sneaky Type VII skipper!

Actually saw that on a helicopter once, the AM guys painted 554 on one side then knocked off for the night, next day painted 557 on the other side. This was on a shore station so a night at the enlisted club was probably a factor. (HIC!)

I still don't have 1.5 yet so no SH4 Das Boot, but when I played SH1 through SH3 the type VII was my favorite too.

Den0 · 03-09-14, 09:07 PM

I moved them to DC changed then mount bow went back to put crew and deck gun slot is gone.

The narwhal comes with 1.5

Ok disregard my last.... If you do it before you touch anything else on the sub it works!

Like Sniper has figured out along with me will trying to get it modded out. It is put together with different model sub parts. Why I don't know. I do have a regular Nautilus skin but I am not to crazy about the skinny new black look. Just my taste. Its here. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=211702

Any chance you or anyone could tell me which mod this camo comes from? Of all the things I like about SH3 more,..The varried amount of U-boat camo's makes the game for me. Found very few for the fleet boats.
