Hi peeps. Have played SH 3, tons of fun then it died on me. Switching now to SH 5, modded of course.
I could swear I did have an account here already, but I wasn't recognized. Maybe I'm getting old


Catch you all later. Take care!

You did? I searched your posts but via your profile but it doesn't go deeper than august 2017.



When I logged in, it didn't remember my username, so I re-registered. Surely it must have been with the same e-mail addy as well. I don't want to get banned for dual account or something.

I'm a 57 year old former professional musician/radio presenter and long time sim fan (starting in 1982 with Psion flight sim on Spectrum)
I've only just moved to SH5 from SH3 (I bypassed SH4 although I DO have it.
After DAYS of pulling out my hair, trying to make the Steam version of SH5 work with mods (patch this, open this data file, install cabinet file viewer, edit this, etc. STOP!!!!) I have found a DVD copy of SH5 for sale and it is on its way as I type this.
The main reason for my writing in this, is to thank all of the modders, paint jobbers and those who contribute to these Sims. I'm always knocked out by the dedication of you guys and to find people who share my passion for these sims is a complete joy. I hope that buying the proper version of Sh5, I'll soon be able to join in properly.
I've been lurking in and around here for quite a while, but I just wanted to come in and thank you guys for all you do.

Welcome Steve

Did you install TWOS for the steam version? I heard it's user friendly.

You will not be able to use this dvd unless you purchase a new DVD key.

All SH5 discs are locked to the original user in Uplay.

DVD key.


Your SH5 STEAM download is compatible with the TWoS mega mod which contains a STEAM conversion as part of the installation process.

Good morning all

Not new here by any stretch of the imagination, but i am a long time Dangerous Waters driver and SHIII and IV player i also do have limited experience in SH5 which i have been playing on and off since its release.

I have never managed to get all the way through which really bugs me i get as far as 1940 and that's it i cant go no further and i have failed the missions anyway because i couldn't get the tonnage, i mean how can you? i do play with nearly full realism on so its difficult at best and with the depth not keeping steady is a pain too.

Icon7 Hi Everyone form Florida, USA

Hi everyone,

This is a great community and I want to thank the modders and those that have provided a wealth of info for us players. Without you, I wouldn't be playing Silent Hunter.

I'm 63 and live in Florida, A LONG time ago I worked on 688s and Tridents at Electric Boat in Groton, CT. Now I'm a Real Estate agent - not retired yet.

I've been playing sub sims since Red Storm Rising on a C64 back in the 80's. I recently reinstalled SH3 and SH5, and have been having a ball.

Dave

Well G'Day everyone and thank you for having me on this site.
Now NO i am not a Pc guru I am a Paramedic and as such I love my sim games, so if it is an aircraft sim, driving sim, Train sim, or in this case sub sim, all of my games are on steam and yes before you all jump up and down on me.
I have read lots about how to install some of the mods.
But no where can I see where it tells me if the mod is steam compatible? so I would love to install some, but most of them say Not Steam usable. I did try and Install the TWOS but it did not work and had to uninstall the game back to steam.
Question
what version is the steam game does anyone know??
is TWOS Steam compatible??

Thanks again yours sincerely
Aussiemedic
