Default Cannot save game .Cfg

Hello
I was wondering how could I keep and save my personal setting regarding the realism I wish :
I keep on disabling Battery limited & disabling Torpedo defection ....It's never saved .... and it seems I have no option than Realism 42 (Middle)

What should I do ? I have tried to modify the GameplaySettings.cfg file inside the Cfg folder ; but it doesn't work

Not sure if I understand your question but if you're referring to the settings for a career then you need to set the options whilst in the office before you launch a career. It's at the top left of the screen on the bookshelf near the save/load options.

Hope that helps,

WB.

Hello
I have already lauch the American Career I am at the 4th mission , and I wish to remove the limited Battery and Torpedoe defection
I go in the menu to Option and game setting and I deselect those 2 options but it 's no use because they come back again in the game
How could I change them ?

Read WhiskeyBravo's post, he explains it quite well. It is NOT done from the main menu, but the office.

When I type this name "WhiskeBravo" in order to search the post it says "Invalid User specified , ...

Edit
Ps : Ok I understand these options should be set before starting the Career (in the office) is that right , after it's not possible ?

It's WhiskeyBravo(I had a typo, corrected now), and the post is a few posts above mine in this same thread. And yes, they should be set at the office, but they can be set anytime you're in the office between patrols, not just when starting the career.

You need to pan left whilst in the office: on a bookshelf are some files which you can pull out to save or load a game. To the left of these files is the options file, it's on the edge of the screen and can be easily missed.

The boat doesn't usually come with radar, aside from the SD air search radar. Normally you have to spend renown to purchase surface search radar, and there are different dates when it becomes available depending on the sub type. In a Gato or Balao, you can usually buy the normal SJ radar somewhere around the middle of 1942, but I don't know if the Tambor/Gar have the same dates.
