IXD2 - Conning tower missing

dizza · 09-07-06, 12:30 AM

My first post here... lots of good info so far that I've seen here. I did a search for this, and couldn't find it.. so if it has been discussed before, I'm sorry.

I just got a IXD2 boat, based out of Lorient. When I start a patrol, immediately my rader, flak guns, radio antenna, radar warning receiver, and periscopes all become destroyed as soon as the patrol loads. I can't go to any of the stations such as periscope or bridge. And when I view the boat, the tower is completely missing!!

ETA: I am running it with SH3 Commander and the "U-Boat: Battle in the Mediterrean" add-on that a buddy lent me to try out.

Welcome !

This has been posted before, and solution too IIRC.

I can;t remember what heading and sadly not the solution either. Well I do remember this it has something to do with you spawn coordinates in Bordeaux.

Are you able to move the sub ?

Yes I can move the sub. I saw the post you are refering to, and doing that solution had no effects on me. The game acts as if I don't have a conning tower at all on the sub. Weird seeing my sub in at the dock with no conning tower on it, only the deck gun.

Ok not the same problem then. I'm browsing through right now, if I find something will post.

:hmm: dont know a great deal about battle of the Med but IIRC the other nations playable subs use the IXD2
You switch between the 2 with the shortcut it places on the desktop
It maybe that it hasnt switched over ( if you played the other subs ) or just a problem on install
Your best bet would be to post in the Simhq forum as that release is their baby

Sorry cant help more than that

Inconvienient I know, but no conning tower you could run surfaced and be nearly invisible. What radar signature?
