S/H cheats

steve51 · 07-30-13, 10:08 AM

Hi all,
I have S/H 4 and while still getting use to it I would like to know if there are any cheats,such as unlimited torpedos and unlimited deck gun ammo.

Thanks in advance

"stupid thinks(things) like cheats"
Maybe HELPFUL suggestions would be more of a welcome to a new member of this site instead of "comments" like this.

As I am still fairly new to gaming, perhaps I worded my question wrongly, sorry about that.

So maybe we got off on the wrong foot?

Lets start again? Hi Sjizzle, I am Steve, any help,advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'd say he has every reason to be angry. He says he's new to gaming and is looking for something to make it easier to learn, and you tell him he's cheating. I think you could try to help rather than just criticize.

I don't know as much as I'd like about unlimited ammo, since I've never used it myself, but soon enough someone will come along who knows more about it. I understand there are mods that make the torpedoes more powerful, but I'm having trouble even finding those.

Thanks Sailor Steve, I would prefer to use the sims without any mods/cheats, unfortunately, for some reason, I struggle doing this, maybe a patience thing?

As soon as i find my way around,I never use any mods/cheats,the game is more exciting that way.
The only trouble then is my wife tells me that I go into my own little world when I use any Silent Hunter sim (cannot for the life of me think why)

The big problem is that all of the Silent Hunter series are flawed, and need mods to some point just to make the game run properly. Then there are many mods that make the game look better, play better and be more realistic.

For SH3 and SH4 you can't play properly without certain mods, and you can have a lot more fun with certain others.

"Hi all,

PS. sorry if i was a bit arogant but in my opinion it's better to not play a game if u can't play without cheats...

you have a right to have your opinion and he has every right to have his own wants and needs for what he wants out of the game.

here at subsim we pride ourselves on being friendly and helpful so why inject your own opinion of what the game should be and imply his desires are somehow wrong. your comments can be seen as being rude to a new member even if that is not how you meant it to be.

steve click on the link in my sig "My Mods" and you will find a good many small mods that make small but important changes to the game to make it more easy to enjoy.

to start the torpedo and deck gun mods will serve as your "cheats" until you get used to the game and then you can move into some of the realism mods that increase the difficulty to match your increased skill set.

as you get to be a veteran in the game you can start into the area of manual targeting which is like math class but will be very satisfying once learned.

welcome aboard and you will love this game.

also make sure you have v1.5 of the game, that's the one with the UBM ad-on patch you have to buy. almost all mods are made for that game version so it really is needed to play the game. if you stick with v1.4 of the game there are very few mods for that game version you can choose from

Hello, steve51!

I'll be brief:

If you'll tick-out all the realism settings, you'll have your game almost with cheats:

Your fuel won't deplete, so you can always go on flank speed and round convoys.
Your sensors will be much better then your enemies' and you will find them sooner and can plot your course to get very close.
With automatic targeting system - it's much easier. You only have to lock the periscope on enemy and enable TDC updating (don't remember, how it's on English).
Same is for map contacts update.

You can download Webster's improved torpedos, so you'll sink almost every merchant from one torpedo.

The point is.... If you want cheats for some other aspects of the game... there will be not much gameplay actually for you to play! You'll get bored!
So bring realism to 0 and try like this.

Best regards

This game has a steep learning curve. I'd advise "cheating", to learn each aspect of the game. If you go 100% realism at first, you will get frustrated and quit. There aren't "cheats", per se, but you can tick off/on different game parameters to suit your needs.

Manual plotting/targeting in this game is not a skill you will learn overnight, it takes practice and work to figure it out.

We're here to help with any part!

and Welcome!

Welcome aboard

What others said.

Get U-boat Mission which is version 1.5 (if you don't already).

When starting a game / campaign (after entering a name, port of departure, starting date and so on) you'll find yourselve standing behind your desk looking at a map on the wall, look to the left and you'll see a bookshelve, move your mouse over it and you see some books highlight with 'options' lighting up. Thats the place to set every setting to easy / 0% realisme.
