Default Sub Speed

I recently reinstalled SH3 after a two year hiatus (actually, got new computer to play SH4 and only recently reinstalled SH3). I had previously modded the various speeds of my subs, but I have completely forgotten how I did it before. I tried changing the values in the subs' .cfg files, but that doesn't seem to have worked. I think I changed the drag coefficients for the subs, but I can't find the right files to mod. Anyone have an idea where I can look? I appreciate it...

Currently running SH3 1.4b, with GWX 3.0 mod installed.

Welcome to the forum Cykko! To modify the speed of the boats I recommend you use Skwasjers Silent Editor (http://sh4.skwas.net/) which is also suitable for SH3. To modifiy the speed of the Type VIIC for example open the file "NSS_Uboat7c.sim" which is located here: "\data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c". Look for the node "unit_Submarine". There you find values for the propulsion of the diesels and the electric engines which you need to modify to speed your boat up.

Cheers!
Mr. Fleck
