are there some tricks/tips to gain renown fast
Open the SH3 folder located in "My Documents", keep opening folders till you find your commanders folder and open it, open Patrols_0 with notepad scroll down to the bottom and find this entry DeltaRenown= and change it to what you want and save. Now you can buy that type VII.

P.S. Welcome aboard!

Welcome to Subsim.

It is a very good idea to use SH3 Commander as Sailor Steve pointed out.

Alright mates, thank you for all your responses and your welcoming ceremony

"Manual Targeting=On and WO's help=On" = what I use, You can either enter everything yourself or ask the WO to do some or all of it for you by clicking his icon.

Ok that's exactly what I wanted to know, in my next patrol I will turn both the options on.

Thx for the tip! Actually I do not have SH3 Commander installed.

Another question, I will use this thead to avoid opening a new one: I would like to clarify the "No contact updates" option.

It means that none of my contacts will be shown on the map? Even if my watch officer spots a ship or the sonarman catches a sound contact?
