eh...how to get the XXI in the beginning of the war
I have played this game loooong time now. did just install the gray wolf mod...great mod by the way. but...I dont have the pleasure of playing with XXI in a real warpatroll and loong one. Sure. i did try it and started my carrier -44 and cheat alittle to hade afford to buy the boat, but. how can i cheat so i get the XXI in the begining of the war. Why i want to do this, becourse i have played the game so loong time now..and have tried all the other boats my earn them, but XXI if i get it, i can only play with that a couple of month and the war is over. I want to play more with that. HOW? love to have patrolls to USA on the drumbeatle operation and so on.

Now goto your Basic.cfg file / open and search for [SUBMARINE_AMMO11];XXI to find the parameters related to the type XXI sub. Then paste all the info above over the original [SUBMARINE_AMMO11];XXI list. 3. Edit the [CONING_TYPE12] ;XXI/1 section. Change Year=1943 to Year=1939. 4.Edit the [AMMO_TYPE9];2cm FK C/38 Flakzwiling XXI section. Change Year=1943 to Year=1939. SAVE Now we need to edit the Flotillia.cfg. 1.Open the file. 2.Find the flotilia section you need to edit. For example we want add type XXI to the 1st flotillia which has the Flotilla0=902 id. 3.In the Flotilla0=902 section find the NbUboats0=2 string and change it to NbUboats0=3 string. This is the number of available submarines. 4. Now we need to specify a new third submarine. Find the following strings: Uboat0_0=0 Uboat0_1=1 5. Add :Uboat0_2=3. Uboat0_0=0 Uboat0_1=1 Uboat0_2=3 6. Repeat this steps for other flotillias if you need. For example for the 2nd Flotillia: NbUboats1=3 Uboat1_0=1 Uboat1_1=2 Uboat1_2=3 Save. Now to fix the sub files. 1. Goto the Type XXI Sub folder found in */Silent Hunter III/Data/Submarine/NS_Uboat21. Copy the info below: ;equiment cfg file, high level of detail [Equipment 1] NodeName=A01 LinkName=20mm21_UFlak StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 [Equipment 2] NodeName=A02 LinkName=20mm21_UFlak StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 2. Open the NSS_Uboat21.eqp fie, select all, paste. Save 3. Copy all the info below. ; sensor configuration file ;lookout on conning tower [Sensor 1] NodeName=O01 LinkName=Visual StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;atack periscope [Sensor 2] NodeName=O02 LinkName=Periscope StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Observation periscope [Sensor 3] NodeName=O03 LinkName=Periscope StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Hydrophone [Sensor 4] NodeName=H01 LinkName=Hydrophone StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Hydrophone2 [Sensor 5] NodeName=H02 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Sonar [Sensor 6] NodeName=N01 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Radar [Sensor 7] NodeName=R01 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;RadioDF [Sensor 8] NodeName=D01 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 ;Radar Warning [Sensor 9] NodeName=C01 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 [Sensor 10] NodeName=R02 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 [Sensor 11] NodeName=D02 LinkName=NULL StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19451231 4. Opn the NSS_Uboat21.sns file. Select all, paste. Save. 5. Start game. select Type XXI Boat. Go sink lots of ships and have Fun. |
Don't forget to change the dates on the XXI's roster.cfg file too.

Don't need to. But you can do if 1 so desire's.

You don't need to if you dont mind having no patrol grid. You need to, if you do mind not having a patrol grid. I experimented with this alot awhile ago, and i always ended up with the same behavior. Start a new patrol with a newly aquired XXI, and you start with a patrol grid. After that, i'd never see a patrol grid assignment again. In hindsight you could aways use SH3 commander and give yourself any grid you want, but to me it really takes away from the game when you pick and choose your "assignments". Id rather have the feeling of behind handed orders to carry out. Personal flavor thing i guess. |
Correct.
Personaly I think the Patrol grids are over rated. Boring as hell. I prefer freelancing it. More so if your taking a Type XXI out in 1939. A patrol grid sorta becomes redundant. :) |

Cdre, speaking of 1939...A question out of the blue. Is there any way to attach a double DG of a DD to any human playable u-boat? I was thinking a mod about the U-cruiser. Is this possible? If you're not familiar with u-cruisers: Type XI U-cruisers Huge U-boats, designed in 1937-1938, with 4 127mm deck guns ( ) in two gun-towers (one fore and aft of the conning tower). 6 torpedo tubes (4 in the bow and two at the stern, all below the CWL). One Ar 231 small aircraft in a watertight 2.6m in diameter container shaft. These boats were to have a crew of about 110 men almost double that of any constructed German U-boat. 4 contracts (U-112 thru U-115) were awarded to the AG Weser yard in Bremen on Jan 17, 1939 but wisely cancelled at the outbreak of war in September that year There is a pic in http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=47482 BTW, how can you attach a pic in the message body? :88) |
You mean like this?
[img]what ever your link is to the pic put here[/img] I take it you mean 1 of these ? http://features.cgsociety.org/galler...1122152994.jpg Ok heres the deal. No NON Sub Gun can be used on a PCO (Player Controled Object - meaning Human player sub) NON Sub Gun - Any weapon mount that is NOT part of Sub_Gun.dat. So there for if it comes off an AI Boast, you cant use it. Ohh it can be mounted an hell it will even track a target, BUT it will be reported as destroyed and your crew wont man it. However something close is sorta possible. BRB, need to close Campaign and take a SS for you. |
:o
. . . That was good. :rock: :P Are both DGs controllable by the player, or only the front? Was that an IXD/2? What was that plane? Can we simulate shells "larger" than 10.5 inches? Can I have it? |
