Hi,
after using the excellent information provided in this forum including the valuable content made available in the download section for quite some time already, I’d like to introduce myself.
However, prior to that: a big THANK YOU to all of you guys who dedicated tons of hours to all the mods and work which found their way into this forum (while I provided a vibrant community with self-developed coding for some years I do recall what amount of hours are burned with something like that…)
I was looking for titles like my beloved games “Silent Service” and “Up Periscope!” since ages. With that piece of information available, it’s not that hard to guess my age, though… I did not really find anything until there was the steam christmas sale last year where I got Silent Hunter III essentially for free.
Since then I spent a huge amount of hours with that great game. Played my first career with the GWX3.0 Mod in Widescreen, but was destroyed during my 11th Feindfahrt. I sank two ships from a convoy and one of the three destroyers but was not able to escape from the two remaining ones. After all, maybe a > 50% realism was too much for me …
Last weekend I discovered the MaGuiMod in the forums and deployed it yesterday. I like that even better, especially with the widescreen version.
Great to see so many active players for such an old game – well, after spending some nights at sea I do see why this is still the case…
Best,
