Type XXI Renown cost

Tonnage_Ace · 11-18-09, 01:21 AM

Just a quick question my fellow Kaluens, how much does the type XXI cost in April '44? Trying to save up, so far I have 16,000 in November '42. If it's not that much I might just get a type IX to carry me through '43.

Anyone else using the XXI at the moment? I'm using GWX 3.0 Gold and SH3 Commander 3.2.

There's an easy way of finding out.

I believe it's either in your basic.cfg located in the data folder of the Silenthunter3 main folder, or in your Type21 folder located in the submarine folder, also in the data folder.

I'm not at home right now so can't check for you but there is a mod by Wreford-Brown that allows you to choose the year you can get a XXI if your not too fussed about historical accuracy

I don't know if it's right or not but I just found a figure saying it will cost me 20,000 renown which is way more than I thought it would be

Instead of a mod how easy is it to just change a value for date/renown cost etc.?

20,000 is steep but I can probably earn that much before April '44, but I don't think I can take command of a IXC/40 which is disappointing...

It's very easy to change the cost of the renown for anything.
Before you do so you should make a back up of your basic cfg. file.

Just open your basic cfg. file and find the line for renown cost of which ever U-boat you want to upgrade to, and manually change the cost value.

You can do this for any upgrades to your U-boat that you want. When your satisfied with your changes, select save changes when closing your file. Oh and one more thing, I wouldn't perform these changes untill you are starting a new career, or you have finished a patrol. Do not make changes mid patrol.

I just had a look for you, If i've looked at the correct part of the basic.cfg file, renown required for a type XXI is 20000.
