Torpedo Load-Out

[Tonnage_Ace]

Can someone tell me how to change the default load-out of torpedos? I'm using the GW mod and when I dock at a milkcow unit it doesn't let me choose. I keep getting stuck with those darn T2's.

[MarshalLaw]

Not sure about GW but with the stand alone Milkcow mod, there is no way to change it. You are stuck with what they give you. If the milkcow mod is part of GW then I bet it acts the same way. :hmm:

So there's no cgf file I can alter or something?

[clive bradbury]

of course there is...

Ha! Thanks Clive! I knew there was a way. I see you can also set nuber of fore and aft tubes, torpedo types and so on. Can you give your sub torpedos which don't exist yet in a given year? Say I want to give my VIIB type XI torpedos in '41, would that be possible? Could you say give your lowly VIIB 20 fore torpedo tubes with which to launch your payload? Interesting stuff.

I'm not sure about the tubes, but as far as I know you can allocate any mark eel to any year - but don't quote me...

You can, but it's bad...

I just loaded up a game allocating my selected torps but when I load up SH3 via SH3 Commander, the torpedo load-out is reverted back to the default. Could this have something to do with Commander?

Did you "roll back" SH3 Commander before changing the .cfg files? I keep forgetting to do that and my tweaks don't stick.

So your saying roll back commander, make the changes to basic.cfg then enable commander? The only changes I make in commander are for deck reload times and days in base, would this affect basic.cfg?

Yes.

Agreed... very bad.

Heh, just had too make sure :yep:

Please note... If you intentionally make late torpedo types unrealisically available earlier in the war... you will be doomed to wear that medic bonnet forever. :-j

Hahaha, I've changed pictures so many times these past few days, I hope the trend continues, it looks silly. I'm all for realism, but wouldn't mind outloading my XXI with XI's and sinking every warship in the Gibraltar Strait :()1:
