I don't know where the old thread is, so I'll start a new one.

The nuclear weapons mod [7KB) (http://home.earthlink.net/%7Etycho102/data/silent_hunter_3/silent_hunter3_gun_torpedo_cheats.zip)
A little movie to demonstrate the torpedoes [Divx, 2MB] (http://home.earthlink.net/%7Etycho102/data/silent_hunter_3/torpedo_power_mod_demo.avi)

You can use JSGME with them, and there's a readme file included. One mod changes the power of the XXI's AA gun and the 88mm deck gun, while another mod only changes the deck gun. Then there's the torpedo power mod, which changes the warhead power on all torpedoes. Then there's a torpedo speed mod which just increases the speed of all the electric torpedoes (to 40 knots) -- especially useful for the acoustic torpedoes which normally have a tough time catching up to a racing destroyer.

Make sure you backup your original files. The only problem with any of these is a crash-out due to all the secondary explosions. On older Forceware drivers (the 60.xx's I think), it would crash out on me sometimes, about 3 seconds after the torpedo hit and pieces just started to fly.

One shot, one kill. Be it bow or stern.

mmm i always found that altering the accoustic torps speed resulted in a torp that just went straight as it couldnt hear any other engine noise over its own "new and somewhat super propulsion system" I tried it out several times quite some time back and iirc i missed alot of easy kills, since then i've left it well alone.

As for any other torpedo speed...you could always use "TimeTravellers mini tweaker" to alter any other torp speeds. :up:

Had a mod like that sometime ago I think the torps and the 88mm had a hit point of something like 2000.It was fun start of with but just got boreing after a while.all hits and no misses,In theory you can take on any ship with deck gun and take a down.with one shot be it torp or deck gun.

You don't understand: this doesn't make it easier, it makes it sillier. We're talking a torpedo so powerful that it blows a battleship 1000 meters into the air, making it spin end over end until it hits the water and sinks.

Try it, you'll laugh yourself silly.

Note...I only mentioned that torp speeds could be altered.. If you wanted to do so... i did not mention anything about damage unlike the poster of the original thread.Personally i leave 99% of stuff well alone, who needs it when you have mods like NYGM war tonnage mod 2 which rock!

That's not this mod, and to do that, you have to reduce the actual mass of the ship. Just increasing the power of the torpedoes won't do it alone. It's a bit strange because you've got to get the mass down to under 100 tons, and the ship won't sit deep enough in the water to fully cover the propellers so a King George is bobbing like a cork at 3-4 knots.


However, this mod *will* drop any ship with a single torpedo, whether it's all the way at the pointy end of the boat, or all the way aft in the propellers. If you hit way up at the top of a crane or superstructure of a ship, it's possible for them to survive one of the 88mm shells. The XXI's 20mm cannon is less powerful and it's difficult to hit anything beyond 2km, but you can "walk" the shells up to the boat or just fire different ranged bursts.

When I had the mod It didn't blow the BB 20M out of the water it hit her and she sank 1 shot only, (I don't have the mod anymore and can't find the thread) it wasn't yours!.
But It worked for me when I started off in sh3 learning how the fish worked,
but in time I lost this mod(don't want it anyway)but why cheat like I said it will get boreing sooner or later.

I couldn't get the movie to work. I like to see what happened, but I'd sick with the standard hit values, as I prefer the challenge:yep:

The torp hits midships, there is an explosion with fires all along the boat. Thick smoke immediately starts rising the length of the boat. All the while, the boat keeps moving along at the same speed while slowly sinking. The video ends before it has broken up or gone under.

Mildly amusing, but sounds like something people do when they are bored with the base game and ready to move on.

Oops. Sorry; I liked that mod a lot, and just assumed...:oops:

I know a lot of poeple do not like "cheating" modes but i say to each their own. Everybody buys a game and wants to play it in their own way. So long as they are not cheating online and ruining other poeples experiances. That being said, does anybody know if there are any unlimited torp mods that work with the one shot kill mod in thie forum. Or perhaps an invincible mod. As a truck driver who is constantly trying to make a living by driving yet maintane some sanity, i like to cheat in the games i play since i do not get a lot of spare time. Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

I find much more fun and amusing to increase the rate of fire of my deckgun to look like a machine gun (600 rounds per minute)... But increase the shell damage to kill in one shot? nah... too lame...

Did a quick search regarding this oldy, I did find this:http://tron-chaser.net/data/silenthunter3/cheats/
The mod is in the upper left hand corner, you will see the link. However the member has not been here since last October,
and the mod is quite old, so as far as questions about it....

Go back to sleep now thread :yep::zzz:

If you can run TimeTraveler's 'MiniTweeker' program you can change your torpedo power, speed, and how big of a shock they give your victim. Same with the 88 & 105 shells, same with other weapon stuff.

Some of it is also revealed in TimeTravelers 'SH3 Inpector' program also but everything.

What kind of sub are you driving around and do you want to soup it up a little? I don't think you can get to invincible but you can get pretty close to being the toughest dog on the block.

Hi Bob,

The last time GenLeo was here was back in March of 07', your probably are not going to get an answer anytime soon. With regards to the MiniTweaker Program, it's a great one. You should see this one though: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=119571
Can be used with SH4 or 3 for that matter. Ok, back to sleep thread :zzz::zzz: please
