Its pretty easy I guess...I would presume using the "SH3MiniTweaker_build104" would do the trick. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=109854

To get to that screen shot above:

1. Use Time travelers SH3 Mini tweaker program, and read the instructions on how to use it. Get that here:

http://www.delraydepot.com/tt/sh3sdk.htm

2. Once you have installed this neat little program, Then download NVDrifters very handy MODS from here:

http://hosted.filefront.com/aragorn155/1928452 (http://hosted.filefront.com/aragorn155/1928452)

I believe the file to MOD speed is in:

SH4_Modding_Tools_Package.zip

3. Once you have opened this zip file you need to extract “Sub .sim and .zon Tweak files” zip file into the SH3 mini tweaker folder which should be under:

C:\program files\SH3 Mini Tweaker\Tweakfiles

4. Extract that file into the Tweakerfiles folder

There is a readme file in the zip file. Read how to install/use them and have fun.


Note: in the top right corner of the Mini Tweaker program there is a button for you to specify the game directory. Every time i use this program to mod files i have to re specify this directory to the SH4 folder. You might have to also.
Furthermore, cruising around at 50knots might sound fun, but it isn’t. For one you wont be able to submerge suddenly, and you will find you sub cant even get to periscope depth, the only way down is to crash dive, and in shallow water at 50kts its not a pretty sight. I keep my surface speeds at 25kts, and have risen my submerged speeds to the same.


Hope this helps, have fun!

but how come i get stuff like this ???
You have the wrong version of the tweak file selected or installed, so the mini-tweaker is pointing to the wrong parts of the NSS_Salmon.sim file and you get the gibberish you see listed.
See my instructions on how to install and use mini-tweaker for SH4 in this thread:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=110889

Read through it and see where you may have unzipped or copied something different.

Well I was able to use the tweaker just fine. Yeah it's not fun hitting your last waypoint 1km from land and not being able to slow the game down fast enough to turn. You have to be careful. My problem is this, I can't seem to slow down worth a crap. What should I do put the drag values higher? I just don't want to screw up the system like I did with SH3 and I was 'crash diving' anytime my boat went over 80 knots.

Yeah I did that on 7000+ time compression and ended up pushing my sub halfway up a mountain :P. Game gets really laggy going into ports so slow down the TC before you get close otherwise your system will start lagging bad and wont respond until after you've laid it up on dry land. I hit the escape key to pull out of high TC's as I near a port and it usually takes about 10 sec before it finally responds.

glad to hear you figured out the minitweaker. I was going to offer to make you a few modified sims if you still needed them.

I'm a newbie here

On filefront i can't find these files

can someone give me q quick link

Kind regards

[Incandescent]

When you are using higher speeds, you must turn to slow down.
Use a zig zag if nessicary.

[CaptainHaplo]

Well, for giggles I tried this - and it looks like the sftw limits you to about 40-45 knots. I used various numbers for the engine power and top end - cant get above these numbers.

I only tried with one class - the Tambor. I may try the others. If there is a specific request for a class - I can see about creating it.
