Default Need help for overkilling

A moment ago I downloaded Rockin' Robin's 'slightly nuclear mk.14's and cuties' mod, it is pretty amazing because I like to play SH4 arcade style without too much realism slowing me down.

Well, I thought that I'll build one-boat-army by using those torps and making the sub better..

Here is the problem: Apparently modifying only .cfg file doesn't make the boat go 60 knots so what other files I need to modify?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps I've just played the game too short time or I'm just a noob but what's s3d?

Yahooing it gave tons of different stuff and I have no idea what to use..

look at the mods sticky under tools

also if you can find it, there was an old mod made by "mush martin" that created a killer sub that had lots of guns and was fast enough to outrun ships.

i think it was called "uber boat" maybe someone still has it and can upload it for you

If you want total over kill you should try downloading Skipjack. That boat is a blast to use if you just want to have fun. She'll do 30 knots submerged and has Mk48 homing torpedoes that don't miss. In easy mode its just point, shoot, sink. With manual targeting, just leave the TDC set to shoot straight ahead, turn the boat towards a sonar contact and cut loose. The torps will find the target. You don't even have to raise the scope. Skipjack is a great mod and a hell of a lot fun.

Until the torpedo turns around and hits your sub. You know, what goes around comes around.

That is true. Several times I've had fish come back at me. This taught me never to make passive attacks from less then 100 feet. The torps don't seem to dive, they just pass over head.

Hmm yea I've read about skipjack somewhere in these forums.. Well, my idea was to make my Gato bit faster than planned Other thing that bothers me is that I started the campaign, Gato class sub at 1942 from Pearl.. USS Wahoo.. One of those few ships that I know something about. What bothers me is those men who died in WWII and are turning in their graves when I'm raiding around the pacific with their boat and using nuclear weaponery..
