Hello Subsim community! (my first question included)

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

Hello all!

I decided to combine 'hello post' and my first question to one post to save your time. :DL

I'm 20+ year old simulator fan from Finland. My first subsim was Silent Hunter II and recently I have concentrated to SHIV. I missed SHIII because at the time I didn't have good enough computer to ran it and now its not available anymore. :wah:

So looks like its time to move on to SHV but before that I have one important question/request for you. I have eye disease which lowers capability to distinguish colours from each other. For example I have troubles in seeing white from quite light background and black from dark grey backround.

Could someone please provide few screenshots from SHV map - preferably with some lines drawn - so I could see whether or not I can play it?

Thanks in advance! :DL

Btw you can call me Tim. kraznyi_oktjabr is reference to Tom Clancy's book Hunt for Red October.

You should find screenshots of maps in this link :-

The maps are easier to see in SH5, than any previous Silent Hunter games.

Welcome to a great forum, unfortunately I cant supply you with an answer.

Hello and welcome :)

Here's a quick screenshot I just took, think it's what you're looking for.

edit: hmm, the jpg compression makes it a little less clear than it is in the game. Hold on and I'll upload in a different format.

edit2: here we go, this is more representative: http://i50.tinypic.com/6gad83.png

SHIII is available on steam if you really want it. A modded SHV will probably surpass it though, given time.

Welcome aboard Tim.:salute:

(BTW, SHIII with GWX 3.0 is amazing!)

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

Thank you very much gentlemen!

Looks much better for me than SHIV map. :DL
I'm going to try SHIII + GWX while waiting pay day... then to SHV.

Thanks a lot!
