truly LOVE the mod, eveything is 10X better than the original.

but i'm having a strange bug i think. i started in the 2nd flotilla in 1939 but i got to go and patrol grid BF10, but it doesn't show on the map?

sorry for all my (stupid) questions

I'm using the ''GWX3 - Fuel Economy'' mod by Wreford-Brown. Are you also using that mod?

Yes I do have that mod in it & the configurations of the mod are the same in the submarine configurations in the game & I still have poor fuel economy.

What about the other Uboat types? Do you have the same problem?

Would you mind checking the value for 'AheadSlow'? It should be 0,30.

Disable the mod and look at: ...\WB's Fuel Economy\data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat9d2\NSS_Uboat9d2

stimy, The BF10 patrol grid assignment is caused by a error in the Flottille.cfg file. Since GWX removes the renoun for reaching and patrolling assigned grids, just ignore it and patrol where you want.

No question is stupid.

The configuration on the mod say .30 & your statement says ,30 The game says .30

WB's ''fuel economy'' mod is known to be incompatible only with the mod that alters the ''crash dive'' depth. I don't know the name of this particular mod. Do you also have this mod enabled? Other than this, i don't have a clue. As a last resort open a thread where you'll be addressing the problem. There is a high probability that WB or anyone else who knows better will show up to assist you.

I don't think I have a mod in it that involves crasd depth. I will start a new thread to see if anyone else has any ideas. Thank you for all your help.

Hey guys since the terrible release of the blasphemous "SHV" which thankfully I have not purchased I was though looking to get back underway in the Atlantic after quite a while away. If I remember correctly GWX was still in the 1 stage lol.

Anyways my main question is what is the recommended level of realism to play at? I normally play at 100% but that doesn't give map updates that the crew should be able to perform. So what do the GWX devs suggest or anyone that has played it an extended period of time?

Thanks for the input!

Jimbuna · 03-30-10, 04:07 PM

I'd suggest you play it at around 25% then up it a little as you get used to it and more proficient.

i got a report that a steamer was taken as a prize by a sub.
is this possible to do by me or just sink every enemy ship?

i got this as a message from another U-boat
how do i derive where he is somewhere, as the grids only have 2 numbers? and what do the other 3 things mean?

grid BE 3451. W 7. Sea 7. MB 34

thx

MikiBzh · 03-31-10, 02:46 PM

Hi,

Location grid BE 3451 is :

Grid BE34 then subdivised in
1-2-3
4-5-6
7-8-9

So 5 is just the middle,

Then subdivised again in the same way, so 1 top left corner.

Wind 7 meters per second.

Sea State (Beaufort Scale) 7 (which means waves averaging 4-5 meters in height, but then the wind should be 14-17 m/s).

Mean Barometer (or Mercury Barometer - I'm not sure about the German) 34 (inches? millimeters? millibars? I'm not sure on that one).
