Default Extra Ammo for Deck Gun (GWX) ?

This mod supposed to increase the number of shells from 150 to 250 for the deck gun and 350 for the flak guns. I have installed it with JSGME and when in the game, the deck gun now has NO Ammunition.

So I disabled it and I have my normal 150 rounds. Does this Mod work? Maybe Jimbuana can throw some light on it.

Yes you have to load the gun manually with the 1st shell

How do you load the gun manually? The shell symbol is showing 0 of 0 Shells. Cicking fire with the space bar states that I have no ammunition left.

Click on the shell itself; it should then load and show you all your ammo.

The reason it shows 0 of 0 is because it defaults to AP rounds, but GWX removes the AP and only gives you HE rounds.

We've all had to learn at some time or other and that is what makes this community so great to be a part of.

Thank's Yes I agree, this community are always on hand to help out and it's a pleasure to be part of it. Without people like you, who have made many mods for SH3, us lesser mortals would not be able to enjoy this sim to the full.
