Default Malfunctions

Does the Malfunctions setting in Subcommander work with GWX3? I know that it didn't when GWX3 first came out, but has anything changed?

Yes it does, but more if you use sabotage too!

Quite hard with sabotage

Do I have to update anything? I haven't updated Subcommander or GWX since I got GWX3.

I don't know Subcommander, I assume you mean SH3 Commander. In SH3 Commander (Options >> Gameplay Settings) you can enable at "Model Effects" malfunctions and sabotage.

But be aware, sometimes your boat cannot keep depth or compressed air could be a problem too!

I meant SH3Commander. But does it work with GWX3.0? On the GWX3.0 page it says to keep them off.

Default Full systems check

I run with mal and sab both, and have not had a problem to date. I do a full systems check shortly after I clear the harbor, ie run engine check up to fland spped, check tha both parascopes and the TDC operate. fire the deck gun and AA gun. submerge as soon as I get to 100 meter line, check batteries speeds. If I find a malfunction I will either return to port if operating out of France, or dock at K-land if coming out of Kiel ar W-haven for repairs. I I think the propbelm is not too serious, I continue to run the partol. So far I have had parascope malfunction, engine malfunction (I could not use Flank speed) TDC malfunctions, and Torpedo tube door malfunction. I am sure there are others that I have not noticed or have not yet occurred.

Drive on with a vengance!
