SH3 no longer recognizes enemy!

Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with the lines not lining up. I've counted the lines and even held a ruler against the screen to check this.

It is actually registering all sinkings as neutral vessels.

Just prior to this first occuring, I had one of those "Silent Hunter has encountered a problem and needs to close" messages when starting a game from the last save point .... every career started after that has registered all sunk vessels as neutral.

The real surprise was seeing it do the same thing in stock, after re-installing.

I will try one more fresh installation tonight. Pray for me!

Possible your defside cfg has gone south
Thats the file that tells the game who is Axis and Allied at any given date

Tis in the Roster folder

Though a reinstall should have solved that issue

That could very well be the case, and if it (shudder!) ever happens again I'll know where to look! Thankyou!

I very happily report that GWX2.1 is installed and all is back to normal

The armed tugboat sunk southwest of Long Island registered as enemy.
(I also note with satisfaction the 48 stars on the flag! Such attention to detail!)

Is your renown being registered as negative?

If you sink a neutral ship it's about -5000. If an enemy ship it will be positive.
