The old NYGM had the Type 23 as an extra addon mod. It wasn't part of the main mod folder. You had to activate it after installing the main NYGM folder.

Just to check I just downloaded the original game files and the mod is in there. So Fifi I guess didn't decide to use the type 23 mod in his revision of NYGM. Dunno.

Fifi I sent you a PM. I'm not sure if it went through though.

You also have to read the read me file because it tells you that it replaces the Type XXI boat and with the type XXIII mod activate you cannot play the type XXI. And it also states that you have to start a career at Stavanger in 1945. I think your best bet is to go to the NYGM original thread and download it from the link.

XXIII Mods
Thanks for the replies.
I found two stand alone mods for the XXIII in a long ago buried backup CD of mine. One was labeled XXIII_NYGM and the other XXIII_GWX. Both versions are stand alone mods and only for the use of the XXIII. I loaded each one as the last mod after Fifi's 4.4 Tonnage War Enhanced stand alone and the ARB Gui. They both work. The configuration of the GWX version is a little different than the NYGM version. Boat speed is too high (more like the XXI) but can be dialed back so that it is correct for the XXIII both surfaced and submerged. The GWX version uses Fifi's model of the FuMB26Tunis RWR and it rotates. The GWX version torpedo's have a range of 5k meters. The GWX version base is Bergen. The configuration of the NYGM version is different than the GWX version. Boat speed is correct both surfaced and submerged. The NYGM version does not use Fifi's model of the FuMB26Tunis RWR. The NYGM version's torpedo's have a range of 7.3k meters. The NYGM version's base is Stavanger. The NYGM version has a flapping flag I would like to remove. I will try a full mission with each mod soon and let you know how they perform. silentwayIII |

But not for the moment, I’m full load on campaign files

I went back and reinstalled the Type XXIII mod and got it working as such.
Here's some screen shots ; I think the first install was corrupted and why I was not able to get things working properly. It is a interesting boat, but not much you can do with two torpedoes. But, all in all, I think I will wait for Fifi's version.

Both mods were included in the earlier versions of Iron Coffin, but I seem to remember that Fifi folded in the 1941 air coverage and all is needed for the current version is the 1943 mod.
Additionally, there is no 1941 air coverage in the mod section for version 5.0. Which version are you playing?

thank goodness! Shame about the number of Beauforts then, but I'm glad everything is working as intended. Thanks for the reply.
edit: missed your last question. It's the one in Fifi's sig. "NYGM ENHANCED STEEL COFFIN EDITION V5" Last edited by Tabris; 02-26-24 at 12:52 AM. |
