Side emblems

Foghladh_mhara · 09-20-07, 04:12 PM

Just started a brand new career in a Type IX. I've never driven one of those babies before so figured I'd give it a whirl. Had a spectacular first patrol sinking the Nelson I might add and returned to base with 74000 BRT under my belt

I didnt attempt any equipment upgrades prior to the first patrol just in case of any 'first patrol bugs' but before my second I upgraded the hydrophone and then tried to paint on my lucky side emblem. But under the extras heading there was nothing for side emblems. Is this normal for type IX's?

Are you using GWX?

Yeah for a longtime now. Driving the type vii's it was always there as an option

Boat Emblems have nothing to do with the boat you're using. They should be in the "Extras" Tab in the upgrades menu. Check the C\Program Files\Ubisoft\GWX\Data\Emblems\SubEmblems Folder to see if they're there.

Emblems are all there Mel. This is the first time in x amount of patrols that I havent been able to choose one. When I click on extras in the ingame u-boat menu there is nothing though. I'll check again when I dock after this patrol.

My lucky emblem has seen me through many, many sinkings. Just wont feel right to implode without it

I'm not close to my installation at the moment. Nevertheless did you eollback SH3Cmdr before enabling Mods etc? That's usually a reason for problems in the game. At the moment I can't think of anything else
