Well, I have had a lot of fun in this game playing it with some realism, but I find myself looking towards just plain old munchkin fun, so I am looking to do a few small tweaks to my game...

I have made the XXI available in '39, but the lack of deck gun is annoying, but I can't make inroads on that due to my complete lack of advanced modding so I'm going with the IXD. So far I have been able to get it converted to a Flakwagon with the VII-4 and 2 quad 20s and 1 twin 37....tee hee!

A few issues and tweaks I want to do, and I need guidance from my fellow Kaleuns:

1) I need the deck gun moved forward, the breach is practicaly in the tower
2) I need to know how to change the muzzle velocity of the 105 so that a level shot can go much farther (I am calling this my "Gauss Rifle" project)

I do have s3d installed, but I can't make heads or tails of what files I need to tweak on this so any help would be appreciated.

1. Move the cfg#M01 Node forwards.
2. Change the Speed and Range of the Gun in the Guns_Sub.sim

I actually stumbled my way to succsess! So now I have a IXD2 Flakwagen with the now gauss rifle of a deck gun not jammed into the tower.

My next just for fun question is how to get more qualifications for my crew?

Ok, haveing waaaaay too much fun with my gauss rifle...

But, I made some other tweaks to my sub that I need to re tweak and maybe someone has figured this out and can help me;

is there a way to get the sub to stop bobbing so much at high speeds when changing depths? (I cranked the speed to 30 kts but I am like a cork when going to periscope depth, I keep losing my tower..)
