Not quite right.

If the gun had ack ack historically, it has it in GWX. In other terms, the icon will be displayed if the flak gun is supposed to carry ack ack.

However, be warned, if anyone is using a menu.ini file that is not based on GWX 2.1 they will not be displayed correctly.

MMMmmm EH ok then so what you are saying is that with GWX2.1 you may or may not have AA shells working with your guns and if you have they wont show anyway because they should not.
so how come when i just looked at my deck gun it shows the HE shells faded and the shell load shows 50 which is the AP load but the AP shell is not showing or did the VIIC not carry AP and HE shells or they did but GWX dont think they should have or is my Menu.ini file currupted by some other mod or am i a NUB again?????

OK, lets see.....

FLAK Guns:

Flak Guns capable of firing AA & HE rounds will display the correct loadout.
Flak Guns not capable of AA (ack ack) will only display the HE loadout.

Deck Guns:

The deck gun will only EVER display HE rounds and the correct round count for that round.

Please note : All rounds displayed are clickable.

I can assure you that if you are seeing something different than this, somewhere along the line the 1024_768menu.ini has been changed from it's original state in GWX 2.1. I hate that file but I made sure it was correct before GWX 2.1's release.

List your activated mods if you like.

ok mods used..



View from deck gun...



even when using the game from freash start and no mods this is all i have ever seen....and maybe i am not the only one

[danlisa]

I will check my install tonight, however.....

Both of these mods, 'JCW_U-Boat_Interface V 0.1' and 'Without Labels' will change the menu.ini from GWX 2.1. As both of these mods are 'older' than GWX v2.1, you can see how they are not compatible.

If you want to make them compatible, use WINMERGE to compare both of these mods' menu.ini files with the default version supplied with GWX 2.1 (please note, you will have to disable the mods to get a clean copy of GWX's menu.ini, unless you have a backup copy).

Hey, it's no problem.

If you like, I can make it compatible. I would only need you to search your MODS folder for the menu.ini and then upload me a copy and I'll make the GWX 2.1 changes.
