Default Question: WAC 4.0 Schnorchel

Hi all!
This question is for WAC4.0 team:
I play your mod and the rising/lowering schnorchel time is too fast (15 secs).
Please...how can i do the rising/lowering schnorchel time more slow...i would like it about 2 mins...like in real life. Is this possible?
This little thing is very important for me...please, help me engineers.

Hi!

Don´t know if this is possible because I never had a look at this.
If this is possible I will change it.

best greetings
Han

The speed at which the snorkel can be raised and lowered is found in file data\library\sensors.sim. Look for 'snorkel' and 'ext_time' (= extension time) with a hex editor, S3d editor or mini-tweaker.

This affects all U-boats except the Type XXI. Snorkel time for the XXI boat can be found in NSS_Uboat21.sim. Look for obj_Snorkel and ext_time.

Values in stock SH3, in War Aces and in GWX3 = 10
Value in NYGM = 180.

Thank you!!!
Only one thing...I have been waiting 4 years to have the perfect uboot simulation and i have fear to make a corrupt file because i have never used those programs.
So...could someone give me a link for those two files: sensors.sim and nss_uboat21_snorkel from WAC.4.0 update with the only change: ext_time=180, like in NYGM for both types, VIIC, IX and XXI???
Thanks for your help m8s.

ok...no problem...i have done it.
Ive used s3d editor to change the values to 180.
It works perfect and its very easy to use.
Thanks stiebler for the reply.
