In career. Cannot read incoming radio reports

So I assume you're hitting "M" to check your messages?

Ha! It took me awhile to figure that one out. I'm not big into reading directions and all. But I think I finally did read that somewhere and was like "Oh snap!"

At least you get messages. I can't remember the last time I got one. I'm running the same version with no mods.

The only messages I've gotten, besides enemy convoy positions, is "Keep up the good work!" after I sent a report. I'm running a few mods, mostly graphics, but no super mod.

Don't forget that heavy/lite radio mod, adds a few more messages!

Will someone please direct me to the "heavy/lite radio" mod site?

Hopefully,

Look for 'Radiolog 1233' and 'Radiolog lite'. The difference is the lite version only gives you procedural signals. The full version has many distress calls and u-boat reports. If you have your game set to go to normal time anytime you get a radio message, the full version can get annoying. Me, I love it.

Hehe, yeah what messages? I get none whatsoever, unless I send a patrol report which gets the same old, same old respnse so I just dont bother anymore. In fact I dont even see any point to having a man in the radio room for that matter.

I remember when I was in training it was like 'follow the radio messages closely!" and I kept getting them, but never knew about 'm' so just kinda sat there wondering when my Radio Guy was gonna mention things to me.

In the vanilla game there are to few messages, but in GW there are way to many! I think I hit a radio hot-spot near Gibraltar, and got hammered with messages. Strangely my boat keft floating although we had 30 tons of handwritten messages onboard.

Download IrishRed's 'RadioLog' mod. It includes hundreds of messages from 1939-1941. It's not complete, but he has promised that someday it will be.

Be aware, though:
1) The messages are real, but do not pertain to the game at all; they are just there for flavor.
2) You will find your Time Compression dropping to 1 many many times every patrol day.

My thanks to all.

"M" was my problem. I now can get my messages.

I'm also going to try the link for more messages to see what this offers.

I do appreciate your quick responses. I wound up playing till 4 a.m. this morning.

Enjoy!
