S3d is quite user friendly, but it is a modding tool, and this means you should know what you are doing when you modify something. Basically this program can open and edit almost every file in the game (i.e .zon files that contain crush depth and hull point of submarine, .sim file with the speed etc, .dat files and so on)

You can find s3d here

@ gimpy117

This is due to the fact the .zon file of the 688I has a crush depth of 400-450'.
You can change this simply by opening the .zon file ( /data/submarine/NSS_688i/NSS_688i.zon) with s3d and go under CollisionableObject, then Properties. Hare you'll find the CrashDepth. The value you see there is not expressed in feet or meters, but it is near the crash depth in meters X1.4

i.e a crush depth of 100 meters (325') will have a value of 140. So make your calculations and modifications accoridingly.

Look up my post from a few pages back, where you have instructions on how to enable the 688i in career mode. Follow those instructions, but replace 688i with 627a. Also, where you have to put "Fx688i, 10" in flotillas.upc you now put "Fx627a, 8", x being the number of your flotilla.

jeez, i spent two hours modifying the flotilla and careerstart.upc files to get the november in career, i feel accomplished
by the time i was done, it was 1. am and even coffee couldnt save me

i am almost tempted to try and see if we can match the russians...
(the irony is reaching the redline and rising!)
anyone have an account on sukhoi to see if we can make this a joint effort?
apparently they have some 3d modelers worth their salt and im sure the subsim modding community can fill in whats left?

yes?
no?
am i insane?
(the third most likely, its a personal itch i need to scratch to combine the graphic realism of sh4 ((i feel i just made myself rather redundant)) with the ultra sleek, modern boats of the cold war)
