Default Circle above sub thinggy

Quick question here. I love this game, but I am not an all pro like many on here. I have this love for the external cam that I just cannot quit. I like seeing a DD come up my rear and depth charge the livingheck outta me. Maybe it has some personal satisfaction with being an actual navy gunner.... I really dunno. My big question is how to get back the indicator circle that lets you know where underwater your sub is when you use the external cam. I have grey wolfs installed.
This is the only part of the mod that pisses me off.
Cheers

I love the external cam too! I even did what you're doing and added back in the umark.tga to my Grey Wolves install.

However, after finding out how much an IX boat costs with renoun, I've turned off my ext cam for that extra 15% renown. One more patrol and I can afford it!!

By the way, when you upgrade your boat, do you keep your crew and any upgrades? I didn't notice when I got my trusty U-50 VIIB.

Your crew transfers with you. With the upgrades-i believe you start at the base model for whatever sub you pick--when i upgraded my VIIB to IXC --I had to upgrade the engines and hydrophones of the IXC. (i could be wrong--one of the gurus might know for sure)

Yes, when transfering to a new boat, you keep your crew and their qualifications, but you begin with a basic model boat without upgrades.

Ahh, ok. Is the IXB or IXC a wise upgrade from the VIIB? I've done 10 patrols in my trusty VIIB and feel almost dirty for trying to ditch it for a new boat.
