New player sh5 have a few questions plz

[morgon]

Hi. I know I might be a bit late but never seen these sims before but I got silent hunter 5 and have been blown away and a little addicted to it lol. I am just wondering about 2 things, one of which I might have found but wanted someone wise on the sim to point me in right direction plz.

How can I learn the basics of the sim and how things work correctly as so far I have been riding on luck I think :)

I see there are a million mods on here. Is there a all in one graphic/game mechanics ? I came across this one and wondered is this a good upto date choice as it seems to have so much I'm http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=3975

Anyhow game is amazing and never before have I been so fascinated with war on and under water. will be putting in a load more hours when I am next off work :)

Thanks in advance for any advice.

There are several tutorials available, and others will be able to help more than I can, at least where SH5 is concerned. The best thing you can do is to keep asking questions. Everytime you wonder about anything, don't hesitate to ask. People never get tired of talking about their favorite subject.

Hello there, Yes that is a very good mod to use. I would highly recommend you take a look at this mod list. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=192374

I based my mod soup based on the list on that page although I picked and chose which ones I wanted. I would also strongly recommend that you read through THEBERBSTERS mega thread on the top of these forums. It contains invaluable info that is not to be ignored. Keep in mind this all depends on whether or not you got the game on steam or somewhere else.

Here's what my mod list looks like to give you a idea.
