Hello there,

I'm coming from the SH3 community here. I didn't actually play SH3 for a few months now because of technical difficulties, but now, when the thirst for U-boat hunting came back, I thought I could try out SH5.

The thing is, I demand a lot from my games. I need the game to be as much as realistic and immersive as possible. So I looked around here and found crazy amounts of little mods which I liked. I really want to start with SH5 as best as possible from the start, but there isn't any really accesible way of doing so.

With SH3 it was a simple matter of downloading GWX, Commander and Patch 1.6, click "Install" 3 times and you were good to go. With SH5 on the other hand, I just tend to find sweet looking, but very complicated mod lists (like this: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=203711 ) , and frankly always when I have some free time to do it, I am put put off by impossible amount of mods or crazily complicated instructions (like this, for example http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=192374 .

Is there any easier way of doing things?

Truly dynamic campaign with AI constantly changing skills from fatigue etc . Real navigating and getting lost in bad weather . etc etc .
Any way to get this easily , NO .
Is all this available in mods , YES .

I also demand a lot from the games I play:yep:

I want the ability to carryout very real attacks where I track a convoy for days. Using real nav and a sharp eye - the target remains just out of sight.
I want the set the torps myself and plot the prefect attack.
I want to gather all the information I require to calc a solution and enter it into the tdc.
etc.
etc.
etc......


I want a sim that does not shy away from being hard to learn and near impossible to master. Requiring years of practice to perfect.

Ah, but I must also get this with one click as two clicks are one click too many and confesses me and I have no time to learn to install.

:doh:
