Modern Sim

[Delgard]

Hi All, I hope I can get some suggestions here.

I played 688(I) on an older computer several+ years ago. But, when I tried it on my new computer, the graphics were crap and it kept locking up. One thing I have to say is that I did NOT go looking for patches for 688(I). Maybe someone knows about this situation

I like the idea of a cold war subsim. My computer is fairly high end and I don't want to make modifications to run a certain program.

I guess I am asking if there is a subsim out there for me that I might not know about.

OR, has someone run into the 688(I) issue and overcome it.

Thanks,
Del

ICQ is helpful if you think I will need step by step help.

Dangerous Waters. That's what this forum's about!

Read the review (http://www.subsim.com/ssr/dangerous_waters/dangwater_review_page1.htm) for it to see if you want it. It's Cold War (kinda), and if your system's even mid-range it'll play it with nary a hiccup.

Why dont you just buy Dangerous waters? Its basicly a graficly pimped up 688i with lots of other platforms to play with ass well. Allthough the learning curve is quite steep its still a pretty good sim. And if you want you can only stick with the 688i platform (at least thats what i do fot the time being) and then learn the other platforms whenever you feel like it.

Ah I see he found this section.

I pointed him over here.

DW as the others have said is not very demanding on the system. Not exactly state of the art graphics but long on gameplay...

Good luck ! :up:

Thanks All,

I will go there. Happy hunting.

From 688(I) to DW, can be a sort of a shock in gameplay.:cool:

Shock ? That's what we sub-fans want right ? :ping:
