Did the Type XXI boats have the same periscope speed limitations? It would seem a shame to have a uboat that can go 17 knots underwater and a periscope that only works under 4.

Does the h.sie mod work the same for all boats?

The most incredible thing of H.sie's patch is that it allows customization of many of the options.

If you open & edit the hsie.ini file (in the /SilentHunterIII folder) you can change the periscope limitation speeds. While this will affect all boats (and the external camera if you're submerged and exceeding said speeds) you can easily change each parameter depending on what boat you have.

I do recall reading something about the XXI periscopes being reinforced to handle higher submerged speeds. If it was something official or just something I'm remembering from these forums, I can't remember.

Re-enforcing the periscope does not change the fact that it is very dangerous to leave a visible periscope wake when cruising along with speed. When the enemy is about better keep the speed slow when visibility is good and periscope is up.

I'm getting a lot more crash to desktop (Silent Hunter 3 has stopped working...) when I load my saves now.

I'm obeying all the usual save rules.

This is my mod list:



I installed the h.sie patch manually, and updated/appended the files as instructed in the instructions. I believe they are working since I have the correct O2 behavior and I get the new version number on the main screen.

However, I have tested the wolfpack mod so I don't know if that was installed correctly or not.
