Default Type XXI

Can someone tell me where I can download a Type XXI mod that allows you to get the XXI boat from the start of the war??

Cheers

I downloaded this mod last night, and ran it through SH3 Cmdr, then remembered that it says if you're running it with SH3 Cmdr you have to put the Type XXI Sh3 Cmdr file into the SH3 Cmdr folder.

However there doesn't appear to be any specific Type XXI SH3 Cmdr file to put into the SH3 Cmdr folder....this might explain why when I go to look at my Uboat before starting a patrol in base, and the game is in 1939, the master display is all screwey....the main body of the Uboat is the XXI, but the tiny conning tower is that of a IIA boat, leading me to think there's a screwup somewhere with me not having this Type XXI SH3 Cmdr specific file.

Can anyone offer any advice on this if possible?

Thanks

If you mail me at wildhawke11@aol.com i can send you the XX1 1939 file that works. I had the same problem so Wexford kindly send me one that works. Just use JSGME to put it in MODS.

I'm curious. I'm looking forward to get my hands on the type XXI and I was wondering. Anybody remembers how much renown it costs?

Ouch, that's costly. I've only cumulated half that so far and I'm already halfway through the war. That may be tight!
