The Ghost of Leopold.

It was a dark night just like tonight... on the lonliest part of the Western approaches. It was the worst submarine sinking I ever saw.

it sounded like a dump truck dropped from the top of the empire state building...

... and when they finally pulled the twisted, mangled body of petty officer Leopold from the burning, sinking wreck

it looked...

...LIKE THIS!

Very nice, Rivet! hahaha! Well scratch that whole thing... I'm going back AGAIN and re-upgrading to a new VIIB. You wouldn't happen to know where I could find the neutral bouyancy mod, would you? Does it work with GWX 2.0? I don't like the whole negative bouyancy thing... very irritating. I've got enough to worry about in GWX 2.0 playing at 100% realism DiD. Thanks and good hunting comeradden!!

Seems Bernard let his brother Hans out of the Cube.

Nah, he's probably a saboteur infiltrating your boat when you aren't looking.

Perhaps he came with the sabotage & malfunctions settings in SH3 Commander, LOL

One thing's for sure, that guy is a hell of a swimmer!

Is it possible to alter the number of crewmen a boat can have? The reason I ask is because my Type II is only allowed a maximum of 9 Petty Officers and 14 sailors, however there is easily room for 11 more men based on the amount of space that's still available in my bow and stern quarters. Is there any way to adjust this slightly without affecting GWX 2.0 playability or the characteristics/playability of the Type II at sea? (I'm assuming you'd have to go into some file and open it up with the "note pad" and edit something... does anyone know what and where, though?) Say maybe add 3 PO's and 2 or 3 sailors? Any help is much appreciated!!

FYI I would like to do this for BOTH the Type IIA and IID. Thanks.

I think it's just a "no ticket" guy hoping for a free trip to US (probably "no visa" and "no money" too). You can launch him for fun.

You should find the Type VII more to your liking since it's quite stable. I've just gone from a Type II to a Type VII, and I had noticed the same bouyancy problem with the Type II as you have stated. Kpt. Lehmann said he was going to look into it but suggested it was probably due to smaller size and weight of the Type II. Most of us use the Type VII and IXs anyway.

Deathfrombelow23 · 01-14-08, 06:39 AM

I decided that I am not going to go back to the type VII. I love my type II! Call me crazy but it's very cozy and the commradery between my smaller crew can't be beat! Now if only I could figure out how to edit the files for the Type II's so they could carry a few more PO's and sailors...

You should have kicked a non quailfied PO off instead of Leopold.

At least he wasn't Bernard!
