Well now I'm thinking your right. CTD tonight while trying to load saved game.
November 1940. I was racking up a pretty good score to!

Sorry if I misled anyone, I really thought I had it working
tore it all down and went back to

GWX - Merged Campaign
GWX 3 Wilhemshafen,St Naz,Schluese and xtra ships V6
New Lorient v1 - GWX3 Merged Campaign+Wilhelmshafen_et_al_V6

I'm guessing the the only way (safe way) to add all those ships is to edit the campaign files.

Absolutely
Many things involved in those files...plus probably some errors...sometimes game run it ok, sometimes not.
It’s lot of work to merge all things right here.

For the moment, i run GWX without all those mods. I don’t care to not have the harbor locks and other extra stuff...just enjoying GWX original merged campaign files. Anyway i spend just few minutes in the harbors!
If i want all this extra eye candy in harbors, i have it in Ccom12 anyway. And all settled right without CTDs...
Rowi did an absolute awesome job.

I'll never give up on the eye candy
two hrs stoking a convoy I need that money shot baby.

I'll keep digging, been going far back in time here and reading up, maybe at some point it'll start making sense to me

again, sorry if I gave bad advice. I had it working for almost a year (in game time) before it hit the wall. checking back on old posts seems it's a ships names issue.

Maybe I will add here an occasional question.
Anyone know why Terrain.bfd and Terrain.bfi version 7 (2009/08/08 ymd) have an older date than version 6 (2010/03/07 ymd) ?


Because besides, that the Harbor_kit.dat file is 11 times larger (260 974 482 B) than version 6 (20 370 803 B) is probably due to the amount of information added in ports?

Version 7 is in my opinion much more unstable than version 6. I hope it is only because of the amount of memory used, which may be lacking, and not the number of errors it contains.

Sorry, I edited my mistake (swap) in file dates but not in your quote.

I'm not sure were I got it but I'm trying WBs extras for Wilhelmshafen on a gof I loaded New Lorien on top of it,

Now I'd tried this before and it worked but any mission started from New Lorien would put me at SH3's stock location for Lorien.

Till now. I loaded it on top of WB's and all sterts are in my pens for all bases BUT I've have a couple of lose ships...one on the roof of my pen
