Hey,

Got SH3 jsut recently...and mein got!

LOVE IT!

Going at slower speeds on surface better then fast with regards to diesel consumption?

and how do I get different logos for my conn tower. I have the 1slt Flotilla one on there atm. How come you guys have U Boat numbers? My current boat does, so I can use that right?

Hi Welcome aboard!

Each boat has their own ideal speed with regards to fuel consumption.

e.g the type II's are most fuel efficient at 6 knots.

What you gotsta do is play with different speeds and then check with your navigator max range at current speed.

most boats are at their best in regards to fuel consumption at a speed which is between your ahead slow setting, and your 1/3 setting. A speed between there will get you best fuel rates.

Have a play.

Sink plenty!

Cheers for the quick reply!

How I check with him? Only just found out pressing F1 will let me know about supply boats lol.

Sink plenty? Oh I had fun in S****horpe??? A port on the East Coast of GB. Sank this little tiny trawler...bless lol. But yeah was some good killing in there...but my game slowed riiiight down and eventually crashed as I came across a ship on the way back to Base.

So how do I do my own logos for the side? Or doyou get them as you progress?

About the logos (emblems), try this mod:
http://files.filefront.com/CapZap+Em.../fileinfo.html
Close SH3, enable it via JSGME, restart SH3, go to the upgrades menu at the "office" and click on "the last icon at the right "Specials" i think it is...
You can only select an emblem when you finish your 1st patrol.
Next time you want to change your emblem, you don't need to exit SH3 just go to the same menu as before prior leaving for your next patrol

Oh, sorry, I thought you had it... well, it's a little nice program that allows you to enable mods without copying files directly to SH3. So every time you enable a mod, this prog makes an automatic back up of the files replaced and when you disable the mod, it restores the original files. Very practicall, isn't it?
You can get it here:

Just follow the instructions
