October 1942 in SH3commander

Yes, in October '42 I see the following:

1st
2nd
7th
10th
11th
29th
33rd

No 30th. If I click on the 33rd it says

10/42 to 07/44 - Error!
08/44 to 05/45 - Flensburg

Do you have the GWX specific files added to SH3Commander ?

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R3824YLO

And SH3commander 2.6 or above ?

Yes. I installed those files, and I'm using Commander 2.7.

October 1942 has no 30th Flotilla. Obviously something is wrong. How do I go about tracking down the issue? Is there some file I can check for to see if I have it or to see if the code inside it is correct?

But even without SH3 Commander there's none. If I go into the game directly and try to make a new career I don't see the 30th.

Then it sounds like your install is corrupt
Did you do the MD5 check on all the files before install ?
Remove the SH3 folder in my docs before install ?

It should say 30th/33rd Flotilla

You can look in

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg and open the Flotilla cfg
And look for

Flotilla7=909
TO7=945
NbStartingDate7=4
NbDate7=4
Emblem7=data/Emblems/SubEmblems/Flotillas/33rd flotilla.tga
NbBases7=2
Base7_0=760;Constanza
Date7_0_0=1942
Month7_0_0=10
Date7_0_1=1944
Month7_0_1=7
DeparturePointLong7_0=3436713.000000

Odd
I just clicked it in your post and got mega upload

I didn't do the MD5, but I did blow everything off the hard drive and reinstall. Without SH3 Commander installed yet, I was able to make a career in SH3 directly with the 30th/33rd Flotilla. So it looks like whatever problem I was having it was mine and mine alone.

Thanks for the help.

Are these the asian subs?

If so, you need to make the days inbetween patrols -----> 55 days.

I read it in the GWX manual concerning using Commander.

You sure your SH3Cmdr is pointing to your GWX installation? If SH3Cmdr lists anything OTHER THAN:

1st Flotilla
2nd Flotilla
7th/13th Flotilla <note the difference!>
10th Flotilla
11th Flotilla
23rd/29th Flotilla <note the difference!>
12th Flotilla
30th/33rd Flotilla <note the difference!>

for the Flotillas AND you have GWX installed, then SH3Cmdr has not been correctly set up to point to your GWX installation. Make sure you use the /l switch appropriately.

What a fantastic mod - thanks folks!

A funny thing happened to me in El- Ferrol. I had fled to the nearest neutral port to patch up my boat after a disastrous passage through the channel....

I stopped a few hundred yards off the wharf in El-Ferrol and ended the mission.

My only option to end patrol was to return to base - which I clicked on....

and then suddenly I ended in Willhelmshaven! LOL

Probably user error on my part but the Spanish were very helpful! :rotfl:

A bit off topic, but does the GWX Auto-Installer check the game exe files?

Yes .

I installed GWX and everything is fine except that I don't have any sound! At first I could hear a bit of music but I had to turn up the volume to almost 100% and now the sound is gone completly. Do you have a clue whats wrong?

[alexoscar]

This is the Pyro Ship I found in North Sea today. As you can see, there are a lot of textures or polygons missing:









Any idea? Is the first issue I find with GWX. Congratulations again for your work guys. You are the reason Im yet playing SHIII.
