Default Adjusting Speed

Hello all,
Just bought SH3, and I'm wondering how I can alter the sub speed to make them go faster. Not accelerate the game, just go faster. I just like speed but can't alter a game properly to save my life.

Which boat are you driving? I'll get you a modified file for that boat that will let you run fast, shoot fast, & dive fast.

...My answer is "all of them". (If possible.) Seriously though, I'll take whichever.

Don't do it. Just don't do it...
You will miss the meaning of all this.

Bloody show off in the movie clip unless you've got WW2 jet engine built inside the engine room I reckon it possible to dive up and down that quick.

Are you honestly telling me you have never wished to go faster?

If the man wants to spend his time playing Call of Duty with torpedoes, let him!

I can give you a starter. Go to
E:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Submarine

or wherever you've got shiii installed

open up the appropriate folder for the type of boat whose speed you want to adjust. In there is a .cfg file. Open it with notebook and at the top of the list you'll find a value for the top speed of the boat.

There may be other things you need to do, dunno, never tried it. Someone else will know tho! Meantimes back your file up and try it.


EDIT: or just try the s-boot mod. Should satisfy your speed urges.

Personally I don't like that sort of cheating, but if you really want to go faster, you can go to programs/ubisoft/shIII/cfg/main and watch for the engine upgrades...GW and MAN. There is a string called SpeedBoost (normal 1.01(?) and 1.1)...Just increase them... (sub normal speed X speedboost value = new max speed)...this value will affects all subs...but you must buy a supercharger to get the effect.

Solution n°2...switch to Mikhayl's Schnellboot mod 40 knots for free
