well, it's bloody useless going on patrol with no torpedos.
was the squadron supply officer a nemesis of your at The Academy?

welcome to subsim.

couple of questions for you to help us help you:
  • had you been playing other missions/careers prior to this career?
  • are you playing a mod set? if so, please send your config from JSGME? if you don not know what that is then you are not playing a mod set?

KaleunMarco +1

As KaleunMarco points out, the attentions in the details... without which makes it downright difficult to diagnose what is the cause of the illness, as it were or in this case, the issue or issues.

Welcome, Skipper!

Unsure if this is the problem you are experiencing, but when a refit is ordered and you check the torpedo loadout, some tubes may not be loaded. I discovered that this can be because the outer torpedo doors for the empty tubes are open. I go to the conning tower and close the offending doors and I can reload the tubes.

Ahoy, jimmbbo...

Can rest assured, it isn't a refit.. as is you look at the very tail end of what they posted, it clearly reads:

''select next patrol from the wall map, it all loads and no torpedoes....''

Selecting next patrol via the wall map, only applies with being in the office, AFTER having chosen to dock at your home base you are assigned to, in order to start your next patrol.

So... that leaves out their doing a refit...

So, this only leaves finding out how they have SH4 set up, what mod/s they are using.

Default No Mods

No mods just basic game, i've been playing it many years ago, never a problem, I'm in career mode, and second patrol, so should have had a refit automatically when I ended the patrol, if i select refit, still no torpedoes and i'm still on the current mission which is completed. I fear well out of date game, shame as iread SH5 is full of bugs.

Carpless, when you first start the game and get to the main screen (load,schools, etc.) what is the version listed at the very bottom right on your screen? Mine says "v 1.5"?


It will help the guys to figure out what might be the problem.

Ok, just to clarify...

What is the source of SH you have, for starters.. & is it what.. SH3, SH4 or SH5... your mentioning of SH5, makes Me wonder... if maybe you might not be posting in the wrong section of the forums.

Would not be the 1st time, that someone has mistakenly posted in the wrong Silent Hunter section here... & likely won't be the last time... either.

That's not a hanging indictment on it happening if it is indeed the case.. don't want you or any one else thinking it is.. when it ain't. Just saying it can & has , does & will in all likelihood happen sometime in the future... just saying it can happen.

Main thing is.. trying to assist you, in figuring out this.. snafu... you're dealing with & correcting it. so as to get you back on track with doing a career.
