Welcome aboard Radar! :salute:

Hi all been playing SH5 for about 2 weeks and really enjoying it. Not really much to tell, i am 29 and from Leeds in the UK, i have mostly played FPS and most of the tycoon stuff, i stumbled onto the SH series when a few people i know where playing SH4, i went to buy Sh4 but they did not have it in stock so got SH5 instead and must say i love it.

Welcome aboard Lister471! :salute:

Welcome all

Welcome aboard guys:salute:

Ahoy
 

just arrived here, I am 43 old german living in Scotland and always loved sims. Apart from sneaking under water I currently play a bit Arma2 and Rise of Flight.

My first contact with sub sims was silent service and it got me hooked big time and had a look at most sub sims thereafter.

I played SH3 quite intensive with GWX3 and absolutely love it still. At first I wasn't very enthusiastic about SH5 as I read quite a bit of bad reviews but couldn't resist and got it finally.

Then of course while researching for mods and tips for SH5 I came across this site and been reading it a lot and must say this is one wicked place with lots of knowledgeable and creative persons and everyone seems very polite so I thought I'd say hello and stick around.

WELCOME ABOARD! :sunny:

Greetings everyone from the land of beer and cheese. Joined the forums a few months ago and thought I probably should finally say hello and participate. My name is Patrick, 28, from Wisconsin, and I've been sub-simming since the days of Wolfpack on floppy disks. Anyways, it's very cool to be a part of such a great forum.

Welcome aboard guys:salute:

Hello All just signed on this afternoon
 

I'm Dave from Ontario, Canada. I'm 61 Yrs (Geez how is that possible)
I've been messing around sub sims for a while I think I had one before SNN 688 or whatever it was. I love this series, am really liking SH5, when it is finished it will be spectaular. Haven't gotten into mods yet, but am certainly considering it after reading some posts and seeing some screen shots. A little leary though. Really appreciate all the knowledge and assistance given on here. You folks are AWESOME. I work midnight audit in a hotel.:salute: later...

WELCOME ABOARD, Dave!:sunny:

Don't worry about the age. I'm right behind you, and we have several here who call us 'kids'.

As for mods, pick up the too called JSGME.
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=169092

It will make it simple to load up mods, it will warn you of a possible conflict (which usually only means that one mod might make another one stop working), and it will let you take them right back out again if anything does go wrong. No muss, no fuss, no hassles, no worries.

It's the gamer's dream come true.

excellent mate. Where abouts in Scotland do you stay? I stay 20 minutes west of Glasgow up on the top of the Clyde Valley.

Im Peter by the way guys. I have been around this forum for a good year or 3 haha Loving SH5 at the moment. Plenty of massive Model threads down in the forum.

I'm Uffe living in Oulu, Finland, born over 65 yrs ago in Germany, when my dad served in the Kriegsmarine. He served throughout the whole war, thankfully surviving it. At first, due to suitable body size, he was in training for U-Boats, but luckily got transferred to minelayers and later Schnellboote, one of which he commanded towards the end of war. I remember several of his war stories. I keep his original Kriegsmarine service book (Führungsbuch) as a dear artifact of him.
Myself, I'm retired by now from international sales -> plenty of time for SH3, SH4, and now SH5, besides flightsims (IL-2/FB, MS FSX) and ever-tweaking my PC. I guess I actually also spend more time modding & tweaking my games than actually playing them:hmmm:. Right when I got my game how I want it, there's a new mod(version) to try out, but I guess there are plenty of other like me, but mostly somewhat (a lot) younger.:sunny:

Wow, ustahl, that's an awesome story! Sounds like your dad had an interesting life. I'd love to here more about his side of the war. :rock:

Same here....and welcome aboard http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...es/welcome.gif
