Can anyone tell me what other file(s) I may have messed-up, that caused the sub to ride so far out of the water?
I have a stock SH3 install too (no mods) and could fix this problem with stock files, if I knew what files to copy over to my modded version of SH3. Any idea as to which file(s) might fix this?
p.s. I thought the depth gauge might be wrong. It's not because I've checked the VIIC with camera-view enabled, and it is riding way too high out of the water. Props are out of the water half the time, even in calm seas.

You could try copying the stock NSS_Uboat folder for that type of uboat ("\SilentHunterIII\data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c\" for the VIIC).
The problem file is NSS_UboatX.sim which contains the actual max surface depth (the surface depth listed in the cfg file only affects from what depth and up the game considers your boat "surfaced" and able to man the tower or guns (or use radar, radio,etc) and nothing else)
