Still Beating That Horse, Yes He's Dead, But

I have posted this before without much luck.
The problem is that SH4 will not give me a Gato when playing career.
I can start a single mission with a Gato so I know they are in there somewhere. But in career, playing out of Pearl or Manilia it goes up to a Tambor then jumps to a Balao class, no Gato!
I have tried everything from deleting and reloading the game to getting fresh mods and starting over.
It seems to be TMO2.5 that is to blame. Has no one else had this problem?

Thanks...

cant say I know much about the situation but have you considered that maybe that sub wasn't available during that date period?

often supermods like TMO and RFB will change things to reflect historically accurate dates and times for things so maybe that's why?

I think Webster is right. At the outbreak, the Gatos were either still in the shipyards, or in the process of workup.

If you can't get one at a later date, I don't know what the problem would be.

See if you can get one from Pearl in early or mid '42.

Yes, I do have the small patch applied.
As for the date, well it changes subs correctly up to the Tambor.
Then gives me a Balao when it should be a Gato, a date before
Balaos became available.

Have no idea what is going on.

Thanks...
