your going to be fine here stork, i was over at the sh3 forums when the game came out, so its good to see you here, just the position keeper is the only difference really, sh4 is really sh3 underneath. i have started a german career in sh4, a couple of days ago, so i can work out the constant bearing method with german submarines, and then post it in the sh3 forums, i cant get sh3 to work anymore.
anyway, any questions, feel free to ask.

page 5-6
this
