[WIP] Cold War Mod

Werewolf · 02-03-09, 06:32 PM

Guys....I've just come across a severe hurdle. I'm trying to make a guppy equipped with a snorkel and so on, and naturally for it to be a guppy an increase of the submerged range is necessary, and here is what I've found out. No matter what value that is inserted into the sim file under submerged range, it remains the same lousy one, I can maximum get 60-80 nm out of the battery, and yes I AM running at optimum cruising speed. It's as if it's hard coded some where. Has any of you come across the same problem? Especially those of you who are designing nukes, how did you increase the submerged range? I used the S3D to alter the values.....I understand nothing

Same with the max diving depth.....no matter what I enter, the hull implodes at 165 metres exactly.

Use Timetraveller's Minitweaker for sh3/4

my best friend and I used it to make a XXI go 45 knots for a bajillion miles

i believe only a slim few GUPPY's had the snort.

@Sledgehammer:

You mean the SH3Tweaker?

Sledgehammer427 · 02-06-09, 10:34 AM

well, its a simple program, and you can prolly find it on the SH3 mods thread

@sledgehammer:

Well, I've tried both now, S3D and the mini tweaker, nothing works!

I'm just to using the tweaker from SHIII and there it was a breeze to alter such values, but it does not work here, bet it's some damn coded crap!

theres sh4 config files 4 the mini tweaker, perhaps u could tell me what sub you are modding and ill mess around with it

@Sledgehammer:

Well actually i've cloned my own, but in this case, where I used the mini tweaker, I used the Balao class since I have no tweak file for the cloned one. The result came out the same

Just as with the cloned one or the type XXI for that matter, the maximum submerged range is way below 100 nm, whether the sub is tweaked or not i.e. it is already supposed to have a submerged range >80 nm, the submerged range remains the same......I can smell coding and I hate that smell
