Does anybody know where the deck gun ammunition icons live?
What has happened is that my there are no ammunition icons that show up in the deck gun screen. This gives zero ammunition available. The icons for the flak gun ammo show up as intended but the deck gun ammunition issue is present in all models of Type VII and IX. The ammunition window and Basic.cfg show that the correct ammo loads should be present. My current Mod-Soup follows but this is only about half of my CCoM mods. The rest have been rolled back to try and find the file in question. CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Release_120_BASIS_EC CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Bunker-Start_120 CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_GROSS-FUNK_120 CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Ohne-Ermüdung_120 CCoM_CaptainsChoiceOfMods_Update_Ohne-Orden_120 Catalina Fix Functional Draggable Chrono for GWX3 1500 meter bearing overlay Fubars_XXI_Uupdate_for_CCoM Ccom_ATM_BlueWater GWX3 Emblems CCoM_RadioMessages_English Ccom12__ExtentedChallengeBlackContacts I have used Silent 3ditor in the Guns_Sub and Shells files found in the library but cannot seem to find the offending file. Spent over one hour sifting through the menu_1024_768.ini file but could not determine which entries governed the deck gun ammo icons. It's possible that it has been this way for a while but my last 3-CCoM careers were 1943 and later so no deck guns were mounted. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance. -C |

First, compare the images data/Menu/GUI/Shells /**_ shell.tga with the stock version of the game.
Then look in menu_1024_768.ini Page deckgun [G38 I**]

Brilliant! Thank you very much.
The problem appears to have been that the HE_Shell.tga file in CCoM was different than that in the other mega mods. I copied the file from NYGM, which I knew had deck gun ammo to CCoM and all seems fixed. Was going a bit nuts as I checked the deck gun entries in the menu_1024_768.ini file first and they are essentially identical to those in the other mods. So the issue proved a minor graphics problem although I am really not sure why. The HE_Shell.tga file in the stock CCoM appeared brighter and more detailed than that in NYGM, which had a washed-out appearance, at least in the TGA-Viewer. But it now displays fine in the game. So many thanks for the help. Am not a huge fan of the deck gun and seldom use them or run early-war careers but am starting to think that the latter might hold some attractions. Cheers and Good Hunting. -C |
