Some Questions

1) speed will not affect battery charging, actually the batteries recharge when you're on the surface , even out of fuel. :rotfl:

3 Just stay out of shallow water at 20-40 meters you're dead meat.

yeah make sure to stay our of shallow water.

If you go to the (F2) Control room after surfacing while charging batteries, you can see that one engine is propelling the u-boat - and responding to your speed commands - while the other runs at constant speed to recharge the battery. Confused how it recharges without any fuel though...

Thanks for the good answers.
Its kinda hard to stay out of shallow water when your operating the type IID boat in the North Sea along the west coast of the England/Scotland.

When I pick up sound of what I preceive to be a Warship, I just get out of their way. I don't attack fishing boats, Trawlers or armed escorts because while I would be trying to sink them with this puny, POS pop pop gun they would be calling in air cover to sink my little boat. I haven't been depth charged yet, but I know that my day is coming. the odds get worse with every patrol & I'm in the middle of Patrol #9 now. There is deep water over next to Norway, but not much traffic that I have seen. I haven't been sent to the Norway coast as yet. I do go home that way & have made two or three sinkings, however it showed on the score card that they were neutral...even though their flags were British!

Ask far as that GWX...man I am so shy of doing mods. Every da*ned time I install a mod I screw up the install & end up having to uninstall & reinstall everything from the beginning.
Maybe after I get killed & have to start over again anyway I'll look iinto it. I just hate downloading & installing stuff. I always screw it up...guaranteed!

All response as in JU_88 are 100%

To install:
1. Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6.Download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.
