Back to base.

Here is some more specific information:

Edit Basic cfg file in SH3/data/Config directory by implementing Tessa's info:
[PLAYER_RENOWN]
AcademyBonus=1000
RankLevel0=0; SCORE
RankLevel1=1499; SCORE
RankLevel2=7999; SCORE
RankLevel3=14999; SCORE
RankLevel4=22999; SCORE
RankLevel6=36999; SCORE
RankLevel7=58999; SCORE
RankLevel8=94999; SCORE
RankLevel9=152999; SCORE

Next step - Edit en_menu txt file in SH3/data/menu directory by implementing this:
(...)

169=Oberleutnant z. S.
170=Oberleutnant z. S.; Kapitänleutnant
171=Kapitänleutnant; Korvettenkapitän
172=Korvettenkapitän; Fregattenkapitän
173=Fregattenkapitän; Kapitän z. S.
174=Kapitän z. S.; Kommodore

175=Exit To Menu

176=Komodore, Konteradmiral
177=Konteradmiral; Vizeadmiral
178=Vizeadmiral; Admiral
178=Admiral; Grossadmiral

(...)
than edit in SH3 Commander Cfg. files directory file named static settings in this way:

";The below lines provide more realistic promotions (sooner) and medals (longer)
;within the context of the SH3 game engine
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel0=0; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel1=1499; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel2=7999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel3=14999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel4=22999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel6=36999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel7=58999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel8=94999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|RankLevel9=152999; SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings0=0.25
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings1=0.5
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalSettings2=1
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore0=3000;2 class, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore1=6000;1 class, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore2=20000; knight, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore3=30000; oak leaves, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore4=40000;swords, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore5=50000;diamonds, SCORE
;PLAYER_RENOWN|MedalScore6=90000;all, SCORE"

And that should do the trick.

Now SH3 Com. will recognize ranks higher than Kapitänleutnant. It will also support it with appropriate rank labels in SH3 crew list and crew management screen.

Good hunting

I've seen that as well on some of the SH3 files. Usually, Win7 gives you a pop-up box that offers the option to make the changes as Administrator. That said, I've had to cancel the changes, reboot the system, and try again. Eventually, SAVE works or you get get the Administrator box.

Assuming you are the only one using your system, you should be Admniistrator by default.

You didn't install into the program files, did you?

Raptor · 01-17-12, 08:12 PM

Irish1958 makes an excellent point.

Win7 protects c:/Program Files with a passion. Wise are they who never try to install other programs there, no matter if that's the default path your program disc chooses.

Always install into c:/Program Files (x86) instead.

Save yourself a lot of headaches later.

Since this came up I have to ask something.
I did all these changes in the files but nothing happened.
I am using XP 32bit.
Any ideas?

Only way I know to reach korvettenkapitän is to manually edit Carees.cfg file.
