Medals - Renown changes
I was on my 4th patrol and was a relatively good patrol sinking 6 merchants for 32,500 tons and a Battle Cruiser for 48,000 tons, and was awarded almost every award in 1 patrol:
The thing is now I don't have any awards to look forward too, I assume the basic.cfg file containing the following would just have to be changed: Quote:

I hadn't seen the thread or it was so long ago I'd forgotten, do the values you use pan out ok, I generally find that I get all my medals in the first 6 or so patrols then at the end of all other patrols nothing, have nothing to look forward to so the enthusiasm is lost!!
If yours works out ok I will give it a go. Thanks.

Wow Reece your values are low!
SH3Cmdr stopped modifying the values sometime back in 2006. They're still in "Static settings.cfg", but commented out. They are: Code:
;The below lines provide more realistic promotions (sooner) and medals (longer) ;within the context of the SH3 game engine ;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel0=0; SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel1=1499; SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel2=7999; SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel3=15999; SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings0=0.25 ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings1=0.5 ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings2=1 ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore0=3000;2 class, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore1=6000;1 class, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore2=20000; knight, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore3=30000; oak leaves, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore4=40000;swords, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore5=50000;diamonds, SCORE ;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore6=90000;all, SCORE The above settings, IIRC, were originally RuB settings. |

I thought the same thing concerning the higher level medal award process. After I became a more proficient u-boat commander, I thought the medals were given out too quickly. I did modify the basic.cfg file and doubled all tonnage requirements. The Knights Cross with diamonds now takes 100,000 tons of shipping sunk to reach, for example. I like this a lot better, now. SH3Commander also monitors the medal distribution, as well.

Ahh, getting a better picture now, I might up mine to the values you show Jaesen, I am using the latest SH3 commander and the basic.cfg file is a couple of years old, never new SH3 Commander ever altered these.
Thanks.

Reece,
I like the background pictures that show, when viewing your reports page. What mods are you using? |
