Another reason to buy SHIV:
Instead of sinking just a couple of the fat ones... have you ever wanted to destroy the WHOLE convoy?
Admiral Scheer add-on for Ops Monsun

Would it be possible to make 2 separate installs, one for the U-boat mods like Operation Monsun, and another for the Pacific mods? That way there aren't really a lot of compatibility problems.

How you can easily make 10 seperate sh4 installs if you wanted to.


i posted a tutorial about it here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=158219

That's a great tutorial there! I shouldn't have a problem doing that.

Nooooooooooo! Don't do it!!!!!!! Don't buy Silent Hunter!!!!!!!!!! It sucks the life from you and chucks all human beings who like you into the putrid discard pile. You'll starve your children, get fired from your job, start using the three minute rule to calculate your speed on the interstate..... Danger, Will Robinson! Extreme danger!

:timeout:So when you refer to leaving the computer after 3 weeks as a resupply stop or end of patrol that must be a bad thing,

Perhaps we should have a separate thread for SH4 widows.

Akula4745 11-15-09 03:42 PM

I got it good... my wife is a gamer too.
We're both hooked... just diff games.

No, no no. That's world of warcraft you're thinking of. Silent Hunter is a perfectly acceptable family game.:haha:

No, you shouldn't buy SH4.


You should never buy anything that will bring you joy.


Suffering is good for the soul. Just read these boards and dream about what you're missing.:dead:

Ok, thank you for that. I canceled my order.

I am cruising the posts because my damn computer crashed BIG TIME, and also SH4 will not recognize my activation code. You do not realize it yet, but Ducimus, Rockin Robbins, Sailor Steve, Webster (Webster for President!) and others here are the finest of the elite group of captains, and although Ducimus denies that TMO Beta destoyers are that difficult, they kick my ass regularly. Ducimus is the author of Trigger Maru and his current Beta is a true work of art. Robbins has a collection of tutorials that demonstrate the technical difficulty of many aspects of the game. Download the game. It is cheap. Get the UBoat add on. Using the various mods that suit you, and applying the techniques of various geniuses on the site, will, if nothing else, give you the opportunity to be witness to to a collection of works by geniuses who have an appreciation of history, computer animation, programming for historical realism, and a team with general brillance. You will not be disappointed, although it may take a while to avoid Ducimus' destroyers (we hates them.) If you see my emblem pasted on the Barbarinna when you are cruising the grass sea, send me some ice cream. The Barbarinna's ice cream maker was damaged on this mission. The crew fixed it, but our supply of ice cream melted.

hilarious post. I rank it up there with two others.

1. Lane's classic thread on how to redecorate your office.

2. A reply by Pacific Ace on September 18, 2009 re a new sonar technique "developed" by Rockin Robbins, quoted as follows "RR has developed a new radar based attack for those dark and stormy nights. I've heard its particularly effective against Essex class carriers. :haha:"

You stand in honored company.
