Default Greetings



Back to SH, have not played it since 1996, SH1. I remember the "amazing" graphics back then...

Well, I'm from Sweden, a Simoholic, playing nearly anything with sim in it. But mainly X-Plane, FSW, TSW, Train Simulator (DTG) and now also SH5.

Also streaming a lot on Youtube. Right now project SH5 + TWS Mod.

And such an amazing community!

Hello friends,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been "simming" since the golden era of the C64 and Microprose, playing classics including Silent Service 1 & 2, Red Storm Rising, Pirates, Flight Simulator 2 (SubLogic) and F-19 Stealth Fighter, just to name a few. Now I'm into Flacon4 BMS, DCS, Xplane 11, IL2ClOD, the Silent Hunter series, and I even get into Elite Dangerous every now and then. I also play CodWW2, Star Wars BF2, BF1 and Tomb Raider on Xbox1X.

I my username suggests, I was a Midshipman in the RAN for nearly a year commencing pilot (Birdy!) training until the MedicO's wielded the mighty axe. I transferred over to the RAAF as a military Air Traffic Control Officer where I reached the lofty heights of senior FLTLT during an 8 year career. I then transitioned to civilian ATC which I have been doing for the last 8 years.

I purchased SH4 (retail DVD) about 5 years ago played the vanilla/stock version and enjoyed it. I'm now keen to look at playing a super mod version to see the vast improvements and appreciate the time and effort people put into these old classics to keep them going.

I purchased the SH5 box from Amazon (It came in a pack with Il2CloD and Wings over Europe) about 3 years ago and have never installed it as yet due to the bad press it received. However, looking through the forums it appears there are some awesome mods out for it which I would like to try. I just have a feeling though that it will be a Steam version that installs which appears far harder to mod with that TDW generic patch (when I installed Il2CloD it went straight to a Steam version even from the retail DVD), but I'll give it a try, as I would really like to play the Wolves of Steel mod, although I'm not too computer savvy. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Well, many thanks for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to being part of this great community.

Cheers!

Dave

Hello everyone. My name is Peter and reinstalled SH5 and playing with TWOS. I'm a retired truck driver and back in the 80s was with the Canadian navy. A couple of questions. Playing this fantastic mod, I managed to finish Scapa Flow and I think Eastern Coastal and I'm presently heading to Northwestern approaches. When I exit the game, shows the missions that I've finished and still ongoing. I think I finished eastern coastal waters but, still shows ongoing? Screenshot of map https://www.dropbox.com/s/oasdnos8ra...atrol.jpg?dl=0

Next question, can't seem to find out how to change my U-boat number and giving my Kapitän Wolff a photo in captains log?

Long time SH3 player, eventually got around to SH4 and now its time to go through SH5. Subsim is such a great resource for everything one needs for this game, always amazed to come to this forum and see that its still active and new mods for these great games.
