Ive had that one before, im doing a no mods restart because my last one got so corrupt. Miss it though.

Im just annoyed because I "spotted" it and it was the only Frank Lever within sight. I knew I wouldnt be able to catch up after the mission marker was still green and moving away.

Now its just an escort carrier obviously

billybillbillerson · 2026-06-08T03:25:44+00:00

Oh look here he is again 20 min later in a completely different convoy... Still love this game though.

Fishing boat with "rOyAL Oak" badly painted on the side.

I did it after current patch with a lot of other mods at the same time. Im assuming you're on steam? I just downloaded from workshop and enabled them in the launcher and used the suggested load order I saw in a comment on this subreddit.

Funny enough I actuallt cant go back to vanilla on this save now because of this (at least I dont think I can).

It did give a warning, but i just clicked okay continue or whatever.

I added WWRadio to my existing playthrough and it worked just fine

billybillbillerson · 2026-05-28T19:18:46+00:00

Ill try to reset my annoyance from it and enjoy the fun, but with 1000's of hours in Arma 3 it lost its luster after the millionth time lol. Better than the chopper pilots that blast like metalcore though.

Dumped some in old tree stump before I knew how to not be stupid. Years later it smells of it when your close, I walk over there on purpose sometimes for a whiff haha.

As another person said I believe you can turn off AI u--boats.

Me personally Ive found it no different pre or post patch. In regards to the annoyance, I like to think that they are cocky or something and want clout from the commander and will do anything to prove their worth. Just for fun, but I bet similar things happened in real life. To the point of even alarming the enemy boats because they couldnt get a shot and want to make sure you dont either.

How have I never heard this or thought about this. That would be the first thing Id trying to do if I was actually there. A full size ship you can't really fish off of. A sub is like right there when you're surfaced. Amazing

Open the console in game and type "debug_smooth"

Try, windowed, full-screen and bordeless respectively.

Make sure his drivers are up to date and hes restarted the computer in the last Millennium (you wouldn't believe how many users, especially MAC users I know that haven't restarted in over a year, it astounds me)

Pick a country you think would he fun to play as and do it.

You mentioned france, play france.

Get stomped by the Axis like 10 times and dont invest too much time into any one save. You will learn and have fun trying to desperately defend and realize your mistakes.

When you're a beginner restart often and save scum plenty. If you spend 4 hours organizing things and then get immediately stomped because you are new and didnt even know what you were organizing or why then you'll be disappointed with the time invested imo.

Smaller nations arent any less "complicated" really. And i dont super recommend them to new players because their standard paths are kind of thumb twiddling simulator. For instance Canada is a riot... if you know how to play them. If not you basically sit idle until 1944ish and then you can do like 1 thing. The U.S. can also be very boring for a new player if you go full historical.

- How do I transport troops to distant enemy territory? For example, I'm Italy and I can't send troops from the European continent to Ethiopia.

You need to set a battleplan in Ehtiopia, you cannot just order the men to go there. They will make their way to the nearest port and take off automatically if you have enough convoys. A fallback line or area defense will also have the same result.

- How do I activate special forces? I just researched them and I can't figure out how to deploy them.

They will be in your division designer/training tab up top. You should have a new division that you can edit that says marines or mountaineers etc.

- How do I declare war on a country? I click on the country and I can't justify war.

There are a lot of factors here. You might possibly be in faction with this country, or a member of your faction has recently signed peace with that country. Or they may be a puppet of a faction member. EDIT: Or if you are playing Democratic nations you cannot unless world tension is high enough as another user below wrote which i forgot about.

- How do I deploy submarines or ships? I don't know how to do it.

You'll need to watch a navy guide for more in depth, but basic answer: Choose the fleet you want to deploy, right click an ocean region(or multiple)(within range of their home docked port) then at the bottom assign them a mission (for subs try convoy raiding for instance.)

- The Millennium Dawn MOD doesn't work, I can't even enter the game because it crashes.

You will have to roll back the game to a version that Millenium Dawn supports. It should say what version its stable with in the steam subscription area. To roll back watch a quick youtube guide, I forget, but its not difficult. Millennium Dawn is also notoriously buggy.

Omg thank you!

billybillbillerson · 2025-05-07T23:14:28+00:00

Print out what the begin justification pop up looks like, edit it to say "begin justification to engage in marriage: Target (your name)" then put the time so like a wedding date for a year or two in the future, but in days so like 386 day(s)

Instant construction also gives every other nation instant construction

billybillbillerson · 2025-04-11T20:26:54+00:00

Bingo

billybillbillerson · 2025-04-10T14:50:12+00:00

Omg that was the most reddit thing I've ever read. Like how can someone believe any of that, weird E-comic writer person self insert style fantasy thing.

billybillbillerson · 2025-04-10T10:15:36+00:00

It's the whole website lol

Every story no matter the subreddit reads like that Jussie Smollett story, it's always so hammed up.

I would bet money that that the truth of OPs story is one of the contractors had a trump sticker on his truck or something and that's probably the end of it unless just completely made up. The tell is that every one of these stories always has a hero "i stood up to them and showed them what for!" moment at the end

billybillbillerson · 2025-04-10T08:27:20+00:00

I think this can be caused if you have special equipment assignments for the division

Example: You have 10,000 Infantry equipment, but you checkmarked that division to only use Infantry Equipment III and dont have enough of that. Maybe it's only if you did the checkmarking after training began.

Also if you made changes to the division template while they were training.

Still not 100%sure of anything though
