renown in GWX 2.1

[lobomarinho]

GWX 2.1 is .... there are no words good enogh to describe it; amaizingis an understatement but for newcomers like me it is very difficult to get renown.
Nothing wrong with it,on the contrary but I was wondering if someone has developed a mod to make it easier to ger renown.

For example, standard feature in gwx 2,1 is that no renown is given by reaching the allocate grid zone and patrolling it for 24 hours.

Is there a mod that can reset this so we can get the renown??

Thisi way it is a little bit easier to have mor renown for uppgrade to a new submarine a little earlier.

Thanks,

LB

Hi
Be back in port

Go to C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg

Open Basic.cfg in notepad

Look for

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=0
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=0
CompletedPatrol=0

change to

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=300
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=200
CompletedPatrol=100 < doesnt work anyway - never has

Or whatever floats your boat

:up:

Another way , which is a bit naughty ,is go to: My documents\sh3\data\cfg\careers\"player"\patrols_. Open and near the bottom adjust "delta renown" to your liking. (Be in port)
I dont advocate this but i also dont think Kaleuns had to "buy" most upgrades for the war effort,also it was a feat completing a patrol seeing as 75% of u-boat crews never returned. I prefer BBW's method,keeps it in the spirit of things.:up: :up:

The renown system is bullcrap, talk about arcade.

I agree though it could have been better
Not sure how

My vote would have gone for a hidden renown system, in which you are offered upgrades after certain levels, but you could never know what the criteria were. Same would work with replacement crew: as time went on you would be offered more experienced men but would not see any evidence of why.

Meh....we would only investigate and overcome, then people would learn and exploit :lol:

The main thing in the game is adventure, action. Renown, basically, is not so important (though to receive a medal is certainly pleasant:D)... BUT. In GWX 2 points of renown are so poor, that practically useless. Practically nothing can be "bought" for these points. And it at realism 82 %!!!
BTW... Editing of My documents\sh3\data\cfg\careers\"player"\patrols_0 has changed nothing. The quantity of points remains invariable (I am in port). Is anything wrong? :-?

Change the DeltaRenown value at the bottom.

I'm giving away 10 billion renown points today! Grab them now before there gone. :D

How was it IRL? I must admit, a "points system" dose seem alittle arcadish:yep:. I would have to think that when advances in weaponry were made, the boats would be fitted with the new toys to help the war effort. Unless only the most successful captains were offered the new toys:hmm:, in which case the "points" as we know them are there to reflect this.

[Jimbuna]

The newer equipment tended to be fitted to the boats as they were built and the kaleuns would occasionally leave their old commands to take charge of the newer platform.

As the war progressed and the losses to U-boats increased, this tended to happen even more often.

Change the DeltaRenown value at the bottom. I dont know why, but it doesnt work. My path is so: My documents\sh3\data\cfg\careers\Helmut Entdecker\patrols_0.cfg. After editing I start the game (I am in base between patrols) and I see that the quantity of points has not changed. ps. I realy use GWX2.1 :) May be do I have to change anything else?

After you have altered the numbers, are you given the choice to save the CFG file before closing it :hmm:

Failing that, send me your Pateols_0 CFG and I will alter it for you.

[Horsemann]

Thanks. The reason is found. The matter is that at me in file Patrols_0.cfg patrols are located some originally :-? and last is located not below, but in the middle... I have simply verified indications with current quantity of points and have found the necessary line... :know:
This time all has worked...
