Adjusting Speed

People are making wisecracks about 'Noobs' and 'cheating'. I also like to play in what I think is a 'realistic' fashion, but don't let them discourage you from doing what you want.

And WELCOME ABOARD!

Thankyou. I only would ever modify one sub probably. Most of the time I am serious but sometimes I get bored and need to let off some steam.

Why not just pick another game for that huh ?

Some people still don't know the meaning of word SIMULATION here as I see.

Simulation must stay simulation, without any transformation to some half arcade crapy game.

I will always fight for ideology and purpose of simulation games!
Becouse this is the way they ment to stay
I think it's not right to do whatever you want with this game this way distorting historical facts and showing lack of respect for these guys who sacrificed they free time to make this game look more REALISTIC.

Dunno how more clear to be on this one.

Wow...thats a pretty harsh judgement Contact.

I enjoy the game immensely, even if I don't play anywhere near the realism levels that some people here do. Does that make me in any way less respectful of what the modding community achieve? Is it not enough to enjoy the game, and the modding of it, as a mark of respect to the game developers and modding community?

Your opinion is important, and I respect it. Be sure you can say the same about how others choose to play this game.

Peace,
Dud

You choose how realistic your in game environment is going to be by knowing how hard you can push yourself for realism settings to be as much close to these feelings that real U-boat captains were experiencing. Not forgeting it's just a game for the sake of healthy mind of course. If you just use the settings which the game itself represents to you it's nothing wrong in it. But when things comes to trigering something like in this thread: the speed of u-boat ?

Sorry but I finding this disgusting in all means. This is like using the cheat and a simulation disfigurement and I hope you understand why.

Or if this is for the "leting the steam go" there are plenty shooters to choose from and I bet the results would be much better than messing up decent game like SH3.

I must agree somewhat with Contact not because of the OP's rather humble request but I've seen some bizarre recent requests for not only for speed, but unlimited fuel, an unlimited number of torpedoes tipped with nuclear weapons, battleship turrets for deck guns, titanium armour plating and could modders come up with a way to instantly teleport my sub to the patrol area so I can dispense with the tedious traveling part. If you need stuff like this you're simply bored with the concept of the game or very risk adverse.

Omg it's even worse than I thought it could be.. It's no big deal if some of our noobs has big imagination. But what frightens me the most is that some of ours senior community members says: "if they want to play this way, let them"

Are they going totaly crazy or something ?

Maybe it's because they are a bit more mature in their attitude towards this sort of thing than you are.

How would you like it if a load of people came here and started to accuse you of glorifying war by using a simulation to kill thousands of people.

Think about it for a while and calm down. You're taking this all too seriously.

It's his Sim, he payed for it as did you, so play it any damn way you like.

All I try to say is that there has to be a sane limits in moding or whishing for the mod historically! Not some fictioned s***. Wanna have flying uboat ? it's your call but you're gonna look like a ****in clown here or just make me angry again.

And we're not talking about concscience thing on how should I feel in sinking ships now. Its very out of topic we are discussing here. You're flouncing

[Meridian]

Why do there have to be sane limits? and who put you in charge of the modding rule book?

As for myself I play at 100% realism and keep things as real as possible, but that's my decision. I didn't make that decision because someone here spouted off about the way they think I should play the sim.

If this sort of thing gets you that angry maybe you should up the medication before you hurt yourself.

Also, this thread wasn't off topic before you took it that way, it's a modding forum and the Op was asking how to mod the subs speed.

I honestly don't know why you're getting so worked up, it's not your sim he's modding....is it?

[gordonmull]

C'mon what's all this aggro over modding a u-boats speed???

There was a time when we were all amused by the mighty Whatthefark and Catafark. Nuclear torpedoes, remember them? In fact back in the day I'm pretty sure there WAS a mod floating about that increased the uboat's speed.

It's not often I'd get sucked into a thread like this but this guy's just signed up to the forum, normally a friendly and helpful place, and gets greeted with name calling and friction. What kind of welcome is that?

He wants to play unrealistically, so what? Playing games or using simulators, however you look at it, should be a way to relax.

Useless to argue..

[gordonmull]

No it's not....

OK, I uploaded the 'Bionic Type 7s.zip' to my Filefront page. It modifies speed, crush depth, torpedo speed & power, gun speed & power, let's you 'see' farther with the hydrophones. It will be fun for a while anyway.

Back up each and every one of these files (the real ones) before you drop these into your game's data folder. Also, these will work if you are running SH3 v1.4b. If you are running any of the ubber mods, they might not work.
