Hi there.

i'm a great fan of Silent Hunter saga, but i've never really felt the need of installing SH IV or V, since SH III+GWX 3 gold had all the fun i could possibly want despite some flaws. I'm used to play at 97% realism there (only event camera on).

But in the past few weeks i read a lot about the Silent Service and the Pacific campaign of US Submarines... so therefore playing SH IV became a priority to me.

i will purchase the Steam vanilla version, but i would love to know what mods should i consider... i look forward to:
- Improve graphic fidelity (compared to stock SH4)
- Improve realism as much as i can ask for (compared to stock SH4 and mostly including dud torps in the kind of historically accurated 30% or higher dud ratio)
- Improve AI difficulty (we all know that IJN ASW wasn't great -moreon if compared with allied ASW warfare- but for what i've seen it is just too easy in the stock version)



I have read that there's a supermod called FOTRS but i do not know if i need yet another mods to be installed in order to play the way i want

thanks for any tips i can get
