XXI in 1939

NeonSamurai · 07-18-06, 11:31 AM

Did you check the Flottilla.cfg file to make sure the XXI is available. Also i didnt notice you saying you had added the years 1939 etc to the XXI in basic.cfg or changed the xxi's year of availability.

I did a mod like this a while back myself, i only had to work with flotilla.cfg and basic cfg.

Btw this is a modding question, it should be in the sh3 modding forum

Ok i read over his instructions (he did it very differently from me). But there was a mistake, he forgot to include the date change to [SUBMARINE3] in basic.cfg

[SUBMARINE3]
NrMinOff=4
NrMaxOff=6
NrMinPO=14
NrMaxPO=24
NrMinSeamen=26
NrMaxSeamen=34
NbVersion=1
Version0=0 ; XIX
Name0=XXI
Month0=1
Year0=1939
DaysSpentInBase=28

Like i said i only modified basic.cfg and flotilla.cfg. But i modded more in basic cfg, where i changed the availability date for every single piece of equipment in it the XXI can use in it to 1939. I didnt edit anything in the uboat folder (there is no need to).

Oh ya and one more thing, start a new campaign with this mod.. dont use a savegame or it will mess it up.

Thanks for that Neon Samurai, it is no small task to trawl through these files, I will check things out today.

zzsteven · 07-18-06, 03:44 PM

I did the same as NeonSamuri but also added entries in SUBMARINE_AMMO10 to include the years 1939-1943.

Yep did that too, just didnt put it as Cdre Gibs put that stuff in his thread. I also listed the XXI in each flottilla in flotillas.cfg

mayandlex · 07-18-06, 06:18 PM

Thank you all for the comments, I can not get the XXI to run in the careers, although it will now appear in the "sub types" in Commander.but the programme will not start. Looking at the coded info on the Flotilla file even though the XXI can be added in as a third submarine there is no further information for the XXI in the file, whereas EVERY other sub has extensive info including what appears to be grid allocations and MUCH more on a month by month basis plus more, for all the flotillas.
Was the XXI ever actually included in ANY career possibilities ?

As far as i could ever tell (i never much played with the XXI in campaigns only did a couple of patrols with the mod) it seems to use the VII patrol info. I also dont use SH3 Commander. The way i did it you have to buy the actual sub to play with it (so i set the renown values for it to zero in basic.cfg)

Here ill paste what i did to mine (and it does work) All stuff overwrites/adds to the section pasted and ill highlight the changes in red. (note some of the unhighlighted stuff may be different in your file, just ignore it as its my own changes or another mods)

Everything starting from [TORPEDO_TYPE0] that has a year and a month entry should be changed to 1939 1. Or you can just lookup and change every piece of equipment the XXI uses (conning tower, flak guns, engines, sonar, radar, radar warning, etc)

For flotillas.cfg, search for NbUboats, when you find it check below, if it doesnt say below someplace Uboat*_*=3, then add +1 to the NbUboats line, and add the highlighted line and change it to match with the rest.

NbUboats0=3
Uboat0_0=0
Uboat0_1=1
Uboat0_2=3

Examples:
NbUboats0=2
Uboat2_0=1
Uboat2_1=3

NbUboats0=3
Uboat6_0=0
Uboat6_1=1
Uboat6_2=3

Once you have modded everything, load the game, start a new carrear with a new guy, pick any flotilla, go into the UBoat management screen while in base, and buy the XXI for 0 renown. Voila.
