No, it is not normal.....you should be able to attach an emblem.

Maybe I missed it in the 100 pages here; but whan I have GWX 2.0 my game runs fine. When I load 2.1 the game slows to a crawl. Any hints?

GWX2.1 already comes with emblems for both boats and flotillas.

Go to:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\GWX2.1\data\Emblems\SubEmblems

Check the folder is a) there and b) contains the emblems....you may have a faulty installation.

That shouldn't be happening.......check your game settings are not set to the max.

What specs is your rig equipped with.

Your specs should run it fine then.

What exactly do you mean when you say "the game slows to a crawl" ?

What fps are you getting when in the open sea and also when in the proximity of a convoy ?

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Emblems there are the emblems but not in the game, anyway i installed 2.1 over 2.0 is that ok? I think the installation is correct, i see the loading screen gwx 2.1 etc.

This maybe a Dam stupid question but how many kills do you have and have you completed the recommended amount of patrols …have you qualified for the right to display an icon :hmm:

I did 6 patrols in the Med, but when i start a new campaign i can set an emblem before my first patrol. But this isn't a big prog, i'll start somewhere else and transfer to the 29th.

Another question, is it possile to change the atlantic looking water to some more mediterranean one?

I checked the frame rate and on all screens I get from 160 - 60 FPS. Once I go to the Bridge, Periscope or Main Gun it drops to 2 FPS. I have JSGME loaded but no moda active.

I believe he means the actual water colour and not the clarity.

You can do a search and look for a mod someone has developed to change it to a more 'bluey' colour.

I'm sorry but I don't recall the name.

Really!!

That certainly wasn't what/who I was thinking of.

IIRC there was a mod developed over a year ago but never got round to using it/trying it out personally.
