More help with deck gun mods

lotharbucheim · 07-15-05, 08:31 AM

First of all...apologies for my ignorance of computers etc.. I was hoping you guys might be able to help me install the bad weather guns mod, as I am having terrible problems,and confusing myself as to which files I should change :

I have put in a clean install..then patch 1.4, then where do I go ?
what files should I search for ? Is it the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent HunterIII\data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c.cfg (for the Type 7) is that the file I should change in order to be able to fire the flak and deck gun in heavier seas ? If it is, then this is a copy of what is showing in that file at the moment, when I open it :
[Properties]
PeriscopeDepth=12;meters
SnorkelDepth=10;meters
CrashDepth=70;meters
MaxDepth=300;meters
SurfaceDepth=7.8;meters
TorpLaunchMaxDepth=20;meters
StormConditions=99,1;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]
I thought that the figure of 99,1 under StormConditions meant that I had done the deed..but when I try to assign crew to the gun I still get the "cannot man deck gun in bad weather" message...if someone could give me an idiots guide to how to do this I would really appreciate it ..as I seem to be ..erm..an idiot!!
Finally, can someone just advise me how to get rid of the annoying in-game music ..I like the interior of my sub to be quiet unless I deem it time for the Tipperary song!! :D ..thanks for any help..and I really do appreciate the help that everyone seems so keen to give on this forum.Thankyou.

weird.

Try 15,1 as 15 is the maximum wind speed in the game.

also try doing it for the Type VIIB cfg as well.

That's easy. From the main Menu Options, go to 'Sound Settings' then un-tick the little box next to where it says 'Music'.
This also switches off the UI music as well as in-game, but your Gramaphone will still function normally.
