Two Problems
Problem 1 - I was promoted using the stock SH3 some time ago to Kapitänleutnant but SH3 Commander keeps rolling my rank back to Oberleutnant z. S. When do I get SH3 Commander to give me that promotion back. It is presently Dec 1942 and I have had 35 patrols. What is the rank promotion based on???
Problem 2 - I tweeked my VIIB to use only G7a torpedoes for all years, but I find that on this new patrol I have G7e as well, what happened, and can I tweek it again while on patrol?? |

Problem 1: Open Basic.cfg with notepad. Copy this section: [PLAYER_RENOWN] AcademyBonus=1000 RankLevel0=0; SCORE RankLevel1=1499; SCORE RankLevel2=9000; SCORE RankLevel3=15000; SCORE MedalSettings0=0.25 MedalSettings1=0.5 MedalSettings2=1 MedalScore0=3000;2 class, SCORE MedalScore1=7000;1 class, SCORE MedalScore2=15000; knight, SCORE MedalScore3=25000; oak leaves, SCORE MedalScore4=37000;swords, SCORE MedalScore5=50000;diamonds, SCORE MedalScore6=70000;all, SCORE Now open a new window to C\Program files\SH3 Commander\Cfg\Basic changes. Open this file with notepad. Paste there. The Ranklevel0-3= is the reknown needed for each rank. Fiddle with these values to get your rank. Click File and then save. Don't close notepad yet. Problem 2:Copy and Paste your subs section from Basic.cfg to the same notepad window as above. Set your torp preferences in the file. Click File then save. Exit notepad. Close all windows. Now whenever you launch SH3 through Commander it will overwrite basic.cfg to use your preferences. zz |

1a: Rank is based on reknown. When you buy something keep this in mind for if you drop below the required reknown for that rank you will be demoted. 2a: no you can't tweak that in mid patrol. Only graphics and sound files should be tweaked mid-patrol. zz |

You have done some adjustements within the ranks? That's the only way you got these problems. I assume you have touched game files but not Cmdr files. -RC- |
Okay Robert, went digging into Commanders files a bit more. Here is where your problem is: SH3 Commander\Cfg\Menu static
[de_menu.txt] 13=Geladen via SH3 Commander. Gute Jagd! 160=Matrosengefreiter 161=Matrosenobergefreiter 162=Matrosenhauptgefreiter 163=Bootsmann 164=Stabsbootsmann 165=Stabsoberbootsmann 166=Oberfähnrich z. S. 167=Leutnant z. S. 168=Oberleutnant z. S. 169=Oberleutnant z. S. 170=Leutnant z. S.; Oberleutnant z. S. 171=Oberleutnant z. S.; Kapitänleutnant 172=Kapitänleutnant; Korvettenkapitän 173=Korvettenkapitän; Fregattenkapitän 174=;Kapitän z. S. Change to 171=Kapitänleutnant; Oberleutnant z. S. Thank you JScones for leaving documentation in your files so we can see what was changed. zz |
Thank you zz. I'll give it a try and see if that corrects my problem.
Thanks to everyone who has given me help and good recommendations. It is greatly appreciated Robert (alias Subguy since I put up my Silent Hunter CE website - I'll try to get it back up again but Yahoo isn't cooperating very much) |

Oh, I already have the Knight Cross and the Knight Cross with golden oak leaves, swords and diamonds in my medals box in the office. There are three medals in there and I forget exactly what they were. Also I check the Basic file in SH3 and I mentioned what the values were in red above. So what should I do? |

Oh, I already have the Knight Cross and the Knight Cross with golden oak leaves, swords and diamonds in my medals box in the office. There are three medals in there and I forget exactly what they were. END QUOTE This will teach me to be 100% precise in my answers. :rotfl: It never dawned on me that you would copy/paste from my post. My instructions were based on you opening the SH3 folder and going to Data\cfg\basic and doing your own copying/pasteing into Commander. So I figured the easiest method would be to open a second window to copy/paste into. LOL zz __________________ |

You still have to put your subs info in that way as I wasn't gonna go looking for that. My later post I think has the right answer for your rank problem though. EDIT: I just scrolled up to go back to the forum and noticed you edited the medals requirements to what SH3 wanted. I honestly have never cared about my rank or whatever medals I could get. the pleasure for me was in perfecting the day to day mechanics of surviving in the SH3 world. zz |

You may be embarrassed to realise that SH3 and SH3Cmdr use THE SAME RANK LABELS. SH3 actually took mine and implemented in v1.3(?). Please, compare them. You'll see below what the actual cause of his problem is, which he has been told many times over the last month, and which is NOT related to SH3Cmdr... |

Please tell me, what do you NOT understand about my response? Here is the forum version AGAIN which is not as detailed as the email version I sent you... http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...t=93290&page=2 This is the first time I have ever said this, but please, PLEASE, PLEASE uninstall SH3Cmdr and save us all, but especially yourself, the stress. |
