A GWX question

how do you re-enable renown when you get to the patrol area? for me it just makes the game seem sort of pointless, becuse you can do whatever you want.

In the basic.cfg file there is the following lines:

Quote:

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=0
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=0

Just set those to whatever values you feel is appropiate to justify you hanging around. I go for 250/500.

Get to know this file, there's a lot of tweaks you can do to make the game more enjoyable for you.

To be more specific:

The first line is for how much renown you get just for going to the assigned grid.

The second line is for how much renown you get for patrolling there for the "required" 24 hours.

Goes without saying that you should make a backup copy of the "basic" basic.cfg in case you ever make a bad edit that gives you problems, or at the very least just as a reference.

If you use SH3 Commander you can also use the "Static Settings.cfg" file in its Cfg folder to make selected edits to the basic.cfg only when you launch the game via Commander (if you open the file, there are instructions on how to set it up right at the top). And if you have auto-rollback selected in the Commander options, it undoes the edits when you exit the game - so you always have the original file in place if you need to refer to it in between gaming sessions. That's become the only way I make those kinds of edits.

Good to know this, I think I'll re-enable it too (but only for reaching the grid)

Is there also a way to re-enable the hull integrity display in GWX?

I believe there is an option for this in Commander, to either show or hide the hull integrity %. The default is to hide it so you have to go in and change that if you want it to show up in the game.

Frau's belief is correct. Click 'SH3 Options' (the wrench at the bottom of the Commander screen) and choose the third option 'Text Settings'. There will find the option to show or hide 'Hull Integrity'.
