If you'd like to talk to me directly, or send me files to add to the mod, the best way is to join the CW Discord server here: https://discord.gg/caD9q9c

SPECIAL NOTE: I am completely open to adding any other mod to this one to make it easier for users to play with the mods they love without a lot of hassle. However, in order to add another mod to this one, I must receive the explicit permission of the mod author before doing so. If you would like me to add someone else's mod to this one, send me a PM here or contact me via Steam and I'll check into it. Be aware that if an author says no, that's the end of it - I will NOT steal someone else's work to put it into this mod.

I am also happy to add any single missions to this mod under the same guidelines, and I'll incorporate them into the mission list properly.

Latest Update: July 3, 2017

• Kilo Class SS
  
• Los Angeles 688i Class SSN (Complete)

• Experimental Typhoon Class SSBN "Red October" (Silent Drive)
• Experimental Typhoon Class SSBN "Red October" (Conventional Drive)
  

Known Bugs

• There is nothing I can do about the Typhoon class being above the water when at periscope depth - I've been told that depth is hardcoded and can't be changed.
• The Oscar's and Victor's bow planes move opposite they way they're supposed to. I can't fix this one.
• When switching between the US and Russian VLS equipped subs, a "Vertical Launch System" text error appears near the torpedo tube display. This error repeats itself each time you switch subs. I cannot find a fix for it at this time. Closing the game and restarting will remove the error, or refrain from switching between US and Russian subs during the same game session for the time being.
• A lot of the new classes use repeated damage control images, it'll take me some time to make all new ones for every class.

Special Thanks

• Special Thanks to Ramius for figuring out how to make the masts work on the new classes!
• Special Thanks to General Giap for sending me the files for tons of new classes, along with all of the things required to put them into the game. He saved me a ton of time and work and I am really grateful!
• Special thanks to Jace11 for providing the Russian weapon sprites! Things look so much better now in the Russian UI.
• Special thanks to scbypwr for providing the base coding for the US Sea Lance weapon.

Just wanted to say...I watched hunt for red october again since playing this game. I noticed your mod for the silent drive sub only allows for 13 kts. In the film Sean Connery's character asked the navigator to recompute for 26kts with the silent drive engaged. I just was wondering if that was taken into consideration. Also when you go to periscope depth your conning tower breaches. It's near suicidal to raise anything or go to 50 ft. Great MOD though!
