Default I love my Crew...

I wonder...if I start my carrer with VIIB boot, and later in the game i want to switch to Constance and play with the IIA submarine and my crew (form the VIIB) can not all fit in the IIA and some of them will remain a undistributed is not it? And when after i return to VIIb Will all my crew come back again?

You'll have to dissmiss some of your crew in order to use the IIa and once they're gone they're gone as far as I know so if you move up a boat again you'll have to recruit fresh replacements. If you save your reknown up you could recruit some well qualified men to help make up for the loss.

Myself the loss of the stern tube stops me swapping back to a type II boat, that stern tube comes in very handy indeed. Claimed more than one or two swines trying to depth charge me to bits.

Agree fully with you. I ask this because I plan to play and the patrol from Constanta when it becomes available.And if I understood well from it can patrol only in the IIA submarine or is there another tipe of U boot i could use?

As far as I know (playing GWX 3.0), you are transferred along with your UBoat, the one you had just before the transfer. And that means you can use your "old" UBoat.

Use SH3CMDR to save your crew; from the manual:
SH3 Commander includes a “Realistic” crew configuration that is based on actual U-boat
crew composition. In addition, you can import your own crew configurations for using with
new careers and missions. To import your own crew configurations, simply add your crew
configuration files into a descriptively named sub-folder under the SH3 Commander\Crew
folder. For example, to add the real crew of U-97, create the following structure: SH3
Commander\Crew\U-97\data\Cfg and then add the appropriate crew_config_*.cfg files. U-97
will then appear as an option in the "Use Crew" list box.

Hello, Irish1958

While we're here, as you seam to know pretty well about SH3 Comm, could you please explane to me the use of those 2 folders :
- !BACKUP ( that is always empty it seems... )
- Random/XX/date

Sorry but apart from ticking the availiable options, how SH3 Comm work is a mystery to me.

Thank you.
