Idealflaw If you like a game that requires though, skill and patients than you will like this sim, it's more than a game. Take a look at the Screen Shots thread to see the great graphics, takes a pretty good machine to run so look at the hardware thread to get an idea of what you need. Also get the Silent Hunter Gold edition. SH4 1.5.

Yes this is standard game play and missions are assigned to you.
You can play at any difficulty settings you like and move up at your own pace. There are lots of people here to answer any questions you have, this is a great forum with lots of help.

hey there, so I bought SH4 gold, and installed it. my video card on my laptop is not up to snuff so I'll have to set it up on my desktop. I played a tutorial but it didn't appear to instruct me to do anything at all. I was hopelessly lost. no idea what was going on. I'm thinking I was missing something major so let's see how it runs on the pc.

question: does the tuitorial actually tutor you at all? I need to know even basic things like how to turn, change course, etc. there is no manual or booklet so I don't know what to do.

also, if you could give me a link to the technical thread, I don't see it.
regards,

Wierd patrol. Had 3 torps left and here comes a lone Takeo CA. Going fast and about 3000 yards, but get one hit. He list bad but doesn't sink. I let him get 6000 yards ahead of me and put about 40 deckgun hits in him. He finally rolled over. Not sure if the deckgun got him or he just sunk. But he just rolled over and didn't sink, so I ran around taking a bunch of SS's. He just floated bottoms up for two days. I actually sank another ship with my deckgun why beside him...I left him belly up.

There was one shot I always wanted to see, and after a little fidling with the editor, I managed to do it. Enjoy:

did you get credited for the kill?
i know that the armor of a bb is pretty thick, so i doubt that ur deckgun did affect the roll over, maybe when you hit the upper structures or ...

Thanks, I had to check moon calendars to figure out the best date to take the pic.

I'm finally playing SH4, or rather playing around with it. These shots were all made using RFB and RSRDC, with all graphics options turned off except 3D Ship Wakes.
