Silent Hunter III

[doomerdgr8]

Hey!

I needed to share a few things with anyone who used my Yellow Mod and is interested in editing...

Torpedoes:
Speed + Range values
Can’t find .cfg File!
Possible file(s) : <install>\data\Library\Torpedo*

Weather:
Weather change algorithms
Want smooth calm weather all times
Kill the damn fog
Possible file(s) : <install>\data\Env\*.*

Deck Gun:
Ability to fire even in a tsunami!!
Possible file(s) : <install>\data\cfg\Basic.cfg

Crew:
Too Lazy!
Always getting tired no matter what I do!!
Remove the cursed fatigue factor completely!
Possible file(s) : <install>\data\cfg\Basic.cfg

Note:
While in a patrol, save your game if your crew is about to commit suicide. Go to you save folder (In XP/NT: My Documents\SH3\data\cfg\Careers\<Your Profile>\). Go to your patrol # (- 1) folder (Say you doing patrol #9 so the folder will be 8). Here you’ll see that with each save, you actually create 10 files! One of then would be “crew_config_<!>.cfg”, where <!> is your save name. Open this file in any text editor and change the Fatigue=?? To Fatigue=0 (where a "??" is you current Fatigue value) for every damn human here!!

It would be easy if you use a nice text editor like TextPad or something that would allow you to do a full replace. In the “Find What:” box, type “Fatigue=” (without quotes) and in the “Replace With:” box, type “Fatigue=0 ;” (without quotes). Note a “;” means a comment and game won’t read this value. So after doing such a replace, your fatigue for any person would change from “Fatigue=??” To “Fatigue=0; ??”! So the old value would be commented. Now load this file from the “Saved Careers” screen.

Be careful that you select the proper saved file! Note that the statistics would be wrong (if you are on v1.0)! If you kill ships before saving, the stats would say you sunk 0 ships but once the game is loaded, everything would be fine and the crew would screw… errr… feel fresh again!!
