Ok so this is my new mod it changes the VIIC/42 into a battle sub. http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/thumbsup.gif

It is JSGME ready just pop it in there. http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/yes.gif

When you start a new career all you need to do is select the VIIC/42 sub.
If you up-grade in a career select the VIIC/42 and then Conning tower VIIC/4
You can then up-grade the sub any way you want to get some good crew and off you go http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/shootingsmilie.gif

This sub can be selected in any Year at any Base. http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/terminator.gif

This mod includes its own version of the Basic file so you need to disable any other mod containing
a basic file unless you enable this mod last http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/j12.gif

The sub Skin shown in the pictures is ....Venatore's VIIC Atlantic WorkHorse Skin IV.
it is not included in the Standard mod although it is in the Extra version and the sub looks better with it http://bts-mods.com/forums/Smileys/BtS/thumbsup2.gif

i saw in a post that someone, by tweaking a .cfg file, was able to make their u-boat go 52 knots. Which .cfg file is it?

my guess is the .cfg fie in Data\submarine\Uboat-put desired type number here-
its the only.cfg file in there, open up with notepad, and crank that puppyy up

That was mine, if you are using SH3 Commander, just rollback and go to your data/CFG folder, then open Basic.cfg and search for this value "SpeedBoost1=" then add any number you like (actually you can edit everything in here to get all the peak technology in 1939 and at 0 renown) for 52 knots I was using a XXI at snorkel depth obviously with the snorkel up, if you use it on surface you get maximum 42 knots, the value I set was 2.50

Can you give a little description of the mod? I'm at work so I can't try it out. I'd like to see what are the highlights since it sounds interesting.

Thanks,

This mod has been updated to Version 2 for some very good reasons.
(1)the mod now has the stock version deck gun placed in a new position on the deck
(2)The response time of the Deck and Flak guns turning to target has been shortened so as the M42 flak gun can engage fighters and not spend its time turning around and never shooting.
(3)Shorter reload times on all guns.
(4)Faster rate of fire from all guns.
(5)New deck TGA added to the Flecktarn skin to remove the doubling effect on the lifeboat blisters ( in the Extra***8217;s version of this mod) only

Now the BattleSub is even deadlier to aircraft then before.

The mod is self contained and will work the same in the stock game or GXW so you can use which one you like. :salute:

I just had to congratulate you on your VIIC/42 BattleSub. I have been unable to play SH3, my PC is down, I am using an old laptop to write this, and search Subsim; I hope to be back in action in the near future. I have only one request, now that there is a boat with some real fire power, is there any way a mod could be devised that would allow a commander to have his flak gun crews concentrate their firepower on ships with out having to control the weapons himself, much like the deck gun? This concentrated firepower could give a sub caught on the surface a fighting chance. In any case, your boat is a very welcome addition to this KaLeun's fleet. I can hardly wait to return to sea.

@ Plissken 04 with all due respect to your site I was never asked permission
If my mods could be hosted on your site and also this is my thread and I would ask people to Download my mods from this link only
please remove yours.

it is easer to control any changes I make to the mods if hosted in one place

If your download is not named Gunsub v3 then you do not have the latest version
