Drakken, not sure I understand what you are saying. You do a one-day patrol to establish the initial SH3 saved game folder, then use SH3 Commander to set the number of days you spend in port so that you leave port on the start date of the next WaW patrol.

An example; if the previous WaW patrol period was January to end of March 1941, and you got into port from that patrol on the last day of February ( you came home early because you had exhausted all your torpedoes or fuel ), you would set your number of days in port to 31 so that come the next WaW patrol period ( April to end of June ) the sailing date in your game would be April 1st.

The orders to actually start each patrol period comes from WaWs BdU and FdU admins, of which Gozo is one.

Hope this helps, but you can get a lot more help over at the WaW forums if you need it.

Dead easy Drakken, and a terrific little utility. I wouldn't even consider playing SH3 without it now.

It will be just fine. Mohr´s new persona (kptlt. Matsmann) is to be the XO for the new 30:th flotilla in the Black Sea.

Very true Lange. Also never mind what SHIII says about new equipment, awards or promotions....All is administred via the WaW Admin.

Also, the 15:th Schnellbootflottillie should have been up and running soon.

Excellent! I hope my character (Heinz Rothler) is approved and sent to the 30th flotilla, to sink some Bolshevik tonnage!

I loved WaW when I played. Best time I ever had, swear to God.

Good little bump, time for more people to come join us. Its nothing big as far as committment goes either, a few weeks to carry out a single patrol - who here (bsides the 1x players) can't do that!!

In the Wolves at War MODs wiki page there are the supermods (NYGM and GWX) listed together with the Longer Repair Times mod.
Does this mean the LRT mod is compatible with both of the supermods?

I'm thinking of installing SHIII again after a long break and trying out a WaW patrol which would require me to install one of the supermods if I understood correctly. It may sound ridiculous but the LRT mod is more important for me than a GWX or NYGM mod, so I need to know if it is compatible with at least one of the supermods.

Oh really? I thought it was the other way round.
Okay then I'll try it out and maybe sign up for the next WaW patrol
