Please tell me if there is new one or if i installed wrong.

Sounds like you are up to date.

Was just wondering about the clock volume as it has already undergone a couple of volume reductions.

Go into: C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SH3 or GWX etc\data\Sound find the wav clock sound and reduce it's volume via Windows Sound Recorder

I too am running GWX 1.03 .. all the latest ... FANTANSTIC you guys .. thanks ...

I only noticed the tick toc of the clock in the conning tower since I was standing next to it ... and can barely hear it in the other screens .

I have another question and don't mean to take anything away from this thread but it concerns GWX maps ( plus don't want to start another thread for it ) ..... can't seem to find if the question has been brought up before ...... anyways , I keep getting messages from BDU with something like :

TO : U-46
44 degree N , 31 degree W
XXXXXXXXXX ( X= name of a ship )

I pulled all maps down and all but can't find a true navigation map that would show degree's ( I think SH2 had this type of map ) ......... Kinda hate ignoring orders from command but they should just give me grid positions instead .... Navigation map has a BIG compass on it when I zoom in ( same as for attack map ) .... any way to remove these easily since I don't do manual targeting ?

Those types of message are historical messages sent to uboats in WW2
Or from attacked merchants

They are there for immersion only and even if you translate those into grid coordinates you wont find anything

I had a problem with not being able to see ships at night.

Lets say a big problem. Battleships at 500 meters were invisable to my eyes, but I could see with the little upside down arrow thing on the scopes. Not quite sure if that is exactly a fix for your mutliple questions, but REWINE helped me with these files.

Download "Visibility Mod Blend"

As far as I know Redwine is the author and credit goes to him. ***Anyone else that participated, please do not be offended that I didnt read the readme.***

Try using these files, they are JGMSE compatable and worked for me well.

MODs I use are below. Although the 400m depth gauge doesnt work, but since I cannot find a MOD that makes a boat go that deep, it doesnt matter so I have not un-installed it.

Thanks for clearing that up for me bigboywooly .... Every time I got one of those messages and unable to comply I was getting worried I might be met by the Gestapo when i returned to port because I didn't do anything ......

On another note I think I might be last u-boat left pretty soon .. all my fellow kaptains seem to want to give their position away by gloating to BDU that they sunk a ship or two and radio in
