Howdy folks. Long time SH3 and 4 player here. Finally decided to give SH5 a go. I'm running with the megamod TWOS and learning how that operates. Now I've just been given my command and I'm learning how to move around but it is awesome eye-candy.

Icon14 ahoy sub simmers

55 year old landlocked truck driver finally able to play over the road.

I'd used to play 9 or 10 years ago but had to put it aside...just wasn't practical on a truck. But now I've found a system that works and makes it injoyable to play again.

I've forgotten most of what I'd learned back then so expect many stupid questions and fill free to demote me to fish bait firstclass.
But mostly I'd want to say thanks to everyone for making these games so much better.

Default Thank-ee

Thank You for the reply's

And hello Rasher.
I am a little forward in my mission since last post, and at this moment am in the middle of the north sea headed towards the enemy
( shhhh keep that under your hat, walls have ears ) .

As per the email I will add to my first post with a little about myself and my interests, used to play in a band ( several) just local pub n club but not played live for years, still have a lot of gear but sadly it only gathers dust,

I work as a tech at the Uni, have done for the last 20 odd years, hopefully I want to jump ship in the next couple of years, the older I get and the more I hear about so and so shoving his mortal coil early sixty's the more I want to take early retirement.
I like many of my age group like books, tend not to watch too much TV and spend the time away from that at night on the PC, doing flight sims(DCS) and I ashamedly admit you tubing LoL Cats and Dogs ( funny don't have a pet)

Can't think of much else at the moment that's remotely interesting to say so I will sign off for now.

Icon12 I'm back...

Hellooo all,
Never made time to do this when I joined the forum, so here's my story :
Bought SH5 on cd when it was released, but it didn't last long and ended somewhere collecting dust. Stumbled on the latest improvements and mods and gonna give it another run. Great to see that even after all those years you're still around...


Now the boring part, I'm a technical manager from Belgium, been put on early retirement because they decided to close down the doors at the factory where I have been working for the last 40 years.


Been on computers since the very first ones ever where available for the public. Like to see what's possible and what's not with them. Like to go for some carp fishing once in awhile. Into RC-Models (also submarines) and had my part in Car Tuning scene. Plenty of things done in the past...


Anyway, if anybody needs some advice, help or what ever... give a yell.


See Ya !!!

Icon10 I've been away too long.

Greetings! I played SH2 on Win95 laptop and had a blast. Joined Subsim and had a blast! Then real life intruded on my fantasies, got a good job and a dear wife who I still have BTW. Silent hunter became a fond memory of mine. I could remember all of the glitches and frustrating moments in that version but the fun was outstanding and made it all worth while.

Finally I bit the bullet and bought SH3 for WinXP I believe I could not remember my login and password for Subsim so I created a new account in 2015. Needless to say I had a blast all over again. Then darn it real life plagued me again! I hate when that happens.

About a month ago I was reading the Subsim Forums about SH5 and the game bug bit me again! I bought the simulation on DVD and after it arrived I installed it, anticipating even more fun but I couldn't get it working. I pleaded with THEBERBSTER to assist me, his encouragement & ideas helped to keep my hopes up and last night all the trials and tribulations paid off!

I will be setting sail once again soon, I just need to learn the games keyboard shortcuts again and get the Wolves of Steel mega mod installed. I can't wait to visualize the crowds cheering as I and my crew set off to new adventures during WW2 in the Atlantic Ocean.

Default New to sub sims

Greetings. Normally I am a flight simmer. I am eager to give subs a try. Silent Hunter 5 appears to be the most realistic. Any advice in getting started is appreciated.
