another tweaky trick if you are looking to buy an UeberLeutnant: clicking on the barracks and awards buttons alternatively gives you different selections of officers to pick from.


Gun Technique:

when on the surface and looking to engage with the gun, put your attack p-scope up just a bit so you can see your target - if not already locked with UZO, do so now. Then you can do quick click on the attack P-scope button to get ranges to help fine tune your artillery.

ParticleDensity=100
TextureResolutionHigh=Yes

The default line was 1024x768 of course.

I'm now trying to locate the file that tells the game where to look for particular missions.. anyone know? I want to create a separate TRAINING directory..
Are you sure this works ? It doesn't for me...I changed the resolution to 1280 x 1024 (I have LCD) and saved the file then loaded the game and took a screenshot...still 1024x768.

I wish someone would include how to safely delete some of those 'saves' I have, without losing my career...like mg bites of em....which files, and how many entries do I have to find, to get them all....and still keep the last one.

They sure did make the 'delete' process work backwards, odd....... :rolleyes: .

Some mapping tools, etc which are nice since my Navigator saw fit to forget his protractor....

Doesn't anybody at Ubisoft know how to produce a decent Merlin sound?

SH3 sounds are excellent apart from a dreadful lawnmower Hurricane sound.

I posted a quick and easy fix in this thread at the SoH.

http://www.cfcforums.com/showthread.php?t=15257&page=1\

Unzip and put it in the data/sound folder. Check if you like it, in the academy AA firing course.

It's a true Merlin recording. \:D

having graphic glitches when starting the game with the sh3.exe? --> open the game CD and make a shortcut for sh3autorun.exe for your desktop.

think you spend too much time in port between patrols? --> go here:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg

and open the "basic.cfg" file. Find this section:

Quote:
[TIME]
TransferFlotilla=1
NbDaysInBase=28
NbPatrolsInFlotilla=3
NbMonthsInFlotilla=6
change "NbDaysInBase=28" to your desired number of days. Note that upgrades and such will add days to this base value.
