After I send the status report, all I receive are unrelated BdU messages like "Shoot, charge, sink!" or "We have high expectations!". Once I got a message telling me I will have new status and weather news in 24hrs. So I waited like 30 hrs for it, but there was no new status news.
Now I am thinking if I should go back to Kiel and end my patrol or not. Is this a bug?

Here are the mods that I am using(I can't exactly remember the order in which I installed the mods but I think the mods are installed correctly cuz I have had no other problems aside the above mentioned):
gwx3.0
4gb patch
sh3 commander
hsie hardcore fixes
v16b1 supplement
Optional O2 gauge
gwx 16km visibility mod
arb widescreen mod

Also I have appended the new english lines in hsie through the static file in sh3 commander cfg folder. Thank you for your replies!
Ahoy, cmdr_loslos...

1 thing you have to keep in mind, should you have played SH4 or even SH5... SH3, does not extend your patrols out, after having completed the initial 1 given you, before leaving base or your home port, as it were... only SH4 & I believe SH5, does so.

What this means, is... once you have patrolled whatever area you were given to before heading out, is it. Once it's done, you can either:

1. Continue roving about, & sink any & every thing that crosses your path, should the war have started by that point in time...

OR
2. if it has not, then avoid sinking anything & head straight back to do at the port you are assigned to, which.. given the date you mentioned, would be the wisest course for now. Not attempting to sink any thing at all...

After you dock, time will fast forward by around a month, if you are going it with SH3, stock... & even around that, even if you are using a mega mod.. like CCoM, GWX, LSH3, nygm or even W.A.C., which include using SH3 Commander (which can have the time you are in port, after docking randomized... so that may turn out to be anything from a few days to that full month time frame...) which accordingly, you are using gwx as your base & SH3 Commander.

At this point, in time... your best bet, as I outlined in point 2, is to RTB & let time fast forward according to however you have it set in SH3Cmdr...

Just be aware that replies back from 'BdU', will be rather limited... unless you utilize a mod that says other things than the base stock messages you've gotten thus far, but keeping in mind there will NOT be other assignments given out, other than your primary 1 before leaving base.

Hope this info helps.. & Gute jagd, ihr Himmelhunde...

M. M.
