S/H cheats

[Azgrim]

Hello, steve51!

I'll be brief:

If you'll tick-out all the realism settings, you'll have your game almost with cheats:

Your fuel won't deplete, so you can always go on flank speed and round convoys.
Your sensors will be much better then your enemies' and you will find them sooner and can plot your course to get very close.
With automatic targeting system - it's much easier. You only have to lock the periscope on enemy and enable TDC updating (don't remember, how it's on English).
Same is for map contacts update.

You can download Webster's improved torpedos, so you'll sink almost every merchant from one torpedo.

The point is.... If you want cheats for some other aspects of the game... there will be not much gameplay actually for you to play! You'll get bored!
So bring realism to 0 and try like this.

Best regards

This game has a steep learning curve. I'd advise "cheating", to learn each aspect of the game. If you go 100% realism at first, you will get frustrated and quit. There aren't "cheats", per se, but you can tick off/on different game parameters to suit your needs.

Manual plotting/targeting in this game is not a skill you will learn overnight, it takes practice and work to figure it out.

We're here to help with any part! and Welcome!

... Read someone made a mod with Nuke shells for the deck gun

Welcome aboard


What others said.

Get U-boat Mission which is version 1.5 (if you don't already).

When starting a game / campaign (after entering a name, port of departure, starting date and so on) you'll find yourselve standing behind your desk looking at a map on the wall, look to the left and you'll see a bookshelve, move your mouse over it and you see some books highlight with 'options' lighting up. Thats the place to set every setting to easy / 0% realisme.

Not at all! I think, every member of Subsim is glad to help a newcomer, especially if this game is new for him.
And every captain picks his own difficulty level. As for me - I find it too difficult playing without contacts update on the map. But without manual targeting system it's too boring for me, because it becomes that I don't have much to do in game.

What is any game for? For having fun! So decide, what difficulty allows you to have the most fun, and play accordingly! If it'll start to get too easy - change it, download some mods etc.

And feel free to ask any questions about the game. Believe me, you'll have plenty of them!

Have a nice play! Have fun!

As Azgrim pointed out - the "cheats" you're looking for are in the gameplay options menu. All that's left is to add my welcome to the others - Good hunting

Ummmmmmm hi. Some of us with a lot of experience with the game get frustrated sometimes. And we find ourselves stuck a little with no apparent way out of a tough circumstance.

Reloading and dying four times gets old. And I came up with some remedies for that.

For starters you can load up my Slightly Subnuclear Deck Gun mod. Well the shells are what you'd expect but there is a hidden bonus. Pop a few 40mm shells into a DD and let me know what happens. Heh, heh, heh.......

But if you think you might not live long enough to surface there's always my Slightly Subnuclear Mark 14 and Cutie mod. One torpedo will skeletonize an aircraft carrier really well and I guarantee an end to your frustration.

Here's a single hit from an armor piercing shell on an aircraft carrier. Hold your ears....


Interesting things have been known to happen to a destroyer when tagged by a Slightly Subnuclear Mark 14......

Ahhhhh, see... I knew someone made something like that

Oh my goodness, thiese shells are badass

There is a supermod for SH4 called Trigger Maru Overhauled, or TMO. It makes the Japanese ASW very tough. So, to make it easier for inexperienced players to learn, there is a version called TMOwTW - TMO with Training Wheels. I never heard anyone suggest that it was a cheat.

Good luck and Godspeed.
