'Tis a pleasure to welcome you all! Enjoy the site and have fun! :sunny:

Hey everyone!
 

I bought Silent Hunter 5 just last weekend (a drunk decision no less), but I'm glad I got it. Either I've played the 'run & gun' type of games too often (mindless games) or most games just aren't very 'strategic' anymore. I'm having a blast with SH5, even though it took me quite a while to 'master' the torpedoes. It's probably the first 'real strategic' game I've played since Silent Service for NES.. forever ago. I have the steam version (which I've been reading, it might've not been the best choice :damn:) but I'm going to see about using the mods.

Happy hunting

Welcome Crow, glad to have you on board! :sunny:

Thanks for 'flying-i'n Crow :salute:

:03:

Hey all, I have installed JSGME and have a few mods ready to be activated.. now I'm just waiting for boring work to fly by... Can't wait to try them out when I get home.
But one question I do have, does anyone else find themselves taking a bunch of screenshots when your torps hit a ship? :D

Welcome aboard all you guys.

And CrowSHV, yes! Seeing the plume of water rising is a fantastic sight, and it means you did something right. :up: I don't know how SHV works but with SH3 a lot of people have it very realistic - except for external camera, so they can take exactly that kind of shot.

Hi Herr-Berbunch, I know what you mean on the plume of water :DL. I have a few screenshots where I have blown off the first 15-20' of the bow.. I didn't realize the default game had 'those' kinds of details.:rock: I will definitely be using realism a mod, but will keep searching throughout the day for a good/the best one, unless there is no noticeable difference between them.
Sorry for the chitter-chatter if it's not allowed here. :oops:

What's a forum if not to chitter-chatter :D

If you've been on many other gaming forum, with their rude fanboy-I-know-it-all-why-don't-you mentality then you are if for a refreshing suprise here. Most people are mature (in actions, not neccesarily years) and we all want the most out of a game, and to have a good time in doing so. :arrgh!:

I haven't been on many gaming forums, I usually browse through them first (to find answers or hints) and most of the time I read lots of that 'elitist' stuff going on; That's when I don't bother. After a few days of searching and reading on these forums, this place IS completely different from the others (like you said) which is why I registered. :yeah:
There are huge amounts of info on here and helpful people, so I'm sure I won't be needing to ask many questions. But I don't mind interacting and chatting either. :)

:yep:

Welcome aboard, looks like you found the right place. :salute:

Why yes I did. Very informative and detailed instructions (besides the nice & helpful people). :up:

A friendly challenge for ya.....if you can get a BB to 'turn 'turtle'...be sure to post a screenshot of before, during (torpedo explosion) and after and I'll send you a GWX enamel cap badge, I'm sure I've still got one lying around :03:
