You can modify Crash Depth=140 to a higher value in the zones.cfg file C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Zones.cfg as per Vdr's post below or just add a semicolon in front of this line to make it indestructible. |
Awesome, Thanks heaps. I took the easy out and added the ;
you might be able to help me with another problem I'm having although
having the extra depth will help now.
I can't seem to ever escape from the escorts
I've been trying this method
Crash Dive to 120m when detected deploying decoys at 40m
at 100m depth enable silent running and set speed to 1 knt
If I get pinpointed , flank up to 50m , decoys , dive 100m 90 deg course change then silent running. I try to offer low aspect when pinging but as you know not much maneuvering power at low speed.
I just don't seem to be able to get away If more than 2 escorts.
Iv'e had SH5, 4 , 3, 2, and 1. Sh5 since day 1 although I go through long
periods of no play I recently got the game running stable and mods how I like but I don't recall the escorts being so hard or have I just been unlucky.
I realise the escorts vary from dim to expert.
thanks
