Did you modify the shell slots for your sub accordingly? SH3C does access basic.cfg but it won't overwrite your custom loadout.

I had a weird problem with SH3 Commander. It stopped with an "unable to write to basic.cfg" error. I checked the file and it had been set to read-only. I reset the attributes (from both Windows Explorer and later with the command line) and it didn't help -- every time I ran SH3 Commander it would reset the file to read-only. I even deleted it and let the game generate a new one, but the next time I ran Commander it became read-only. Reinstalling SH3C fixed it.
