Default Compulisve Tweakers Syndrome

Learning S3D and also made some changes via notepade when installing Sofu Gan for RSRD and changing torpedo renown for Mark 16, gotta say I believe I have been infected with CTS.S3D is a wonderful program.

How would I give US air dropped torpedos wakes as well as IJN torpedos.Noticed they are wakeless and should not be.

I hope you weren't expecting to play SH4 then. Cause, if you really have picked up CTD, your days of playing are over.


In all the time SH4 has been in existence, i have just ONE "real" career game, with 4 patrols. Spotted by some "throw away" career games for testing purposes. I probably have the most time spent in single missions testing out individual tweaks.

Enjoy S3D, it really is a great program.

Going to try and not let it get that bad but I have used the hour or so I could play tonight to "try" and adjust Mark 14 and 18 torpedo problems to reflect history a little more.Had the changes just right then it wouldnt let me save them(posted in mods thread).Time for bed here soon, more tweak tomorrow I suppose.


Duci, any ideas why the rank insignia for officers is all goofy in the beta patch? The Ensigns aboard are wearing LT bars where as my XO , the LT is wearing a butter bar.I would like to fix this. Immersion thing, kind of annoying.

The bad thing is the more you figure out the less playtime you will actually have. I developed this disorder modding flightsims and it has carried over to almost every game i own. Now if i see something that i think is not right i can spend the entire night trying to track it down and fix it.

Case in point, I docked my sub and took a break. I reloaded MS Flight Simulator 2004 and have spend the past week recreating my hometown and surrounding areas. Some of it was easy, just download the mod and install. However then i made the mistake of going outside and comparing the real skyline with the one in FS, i had several major buildings to add that have been constructed since the author made the mod. Tweak,Tweak,Tweak, then play test and tweak some more.

I did the same thing with SH4, Download the mods, take em apart, figure out what i wanted to use and Tweak,Play Test,Tweak some more!

I swear this disorder is terminal! LOL!
