Sure thing. Just wrote those out in big, bold letters with a magic marker and mailed it off to you in a plain see-through-ish envelope. :salute:

You did say you wanted my social security number, too, right? :DL

U-Boat Meditteranean
 
I have all the SH versions from 1 to 5. Where the U-Boat versions are concerned I find 5 too awkward and 2 too basic (when the convoy ships are not colliding with eachother). I have known about the SUBSIM site for years but only just become a member of the forum. As such I have just downloaded and installed GWX. Like most people I'm impressed immensly and find it much more challenging. I've also installed SH Commander but what I want to know is can I now reinstall my official add on, U-Boat Meditteranean over GWX as I like the camo subs and the U-Boat pens (I know there are pens in GWX) or is my official add on now a tea coaster. Michael.

Welcome to Subsim GalaxianFive.:salute:

WELCOME ABOARD! :sunny:

I've never heard of U-Boat Meditteranean, but it is possible to take the skins from one mod and apply them into the game. There are also a lot of skins available here:

Your "official" add on was always a tea coaster. The company that produced that (X1) just simply took free mods from various sources, bundled them up and sold them for a profit. GWX includes much more than that, and does it better.

If you like camo skins for your boat, there's plenty of GWX compatible choices around here.

Tea coaster :salute:

GWX change the designation of more than a few ships/icebergs/land units and adding UBITM on top will overwrite the GWX campaign and no doubt result in many and varied CTDs
If the game indeed starts

UBITM predates GWX3 by a few years so think its far to say is out of date anyway

Now you have GWX if your system can handle a lil extra would suggest you DL this

Shameless plug as my mod but will give you a lifelike Wilhelmshaven and St Naz along with locks at start and end of the Kiel canal

From what I've read here and other places, was UBM even ubi approved? I know they stole the mods from here and other places and sold them without credit or license.

Sad to see someone (unknowingly) supporting them.

WELCOME ABOARD!!
 
I have an actual question about GWX now. Will the Das Boot crew icons work with gwx?

Sailor Steve 03-27-12 11:33 PM

Yes.

Stock game, when first played: :rock:

GWX when first played: hmmm there doesn't seem to be a smiley for
'drooling while falling from chair and calling everyone that i wasn't gonna make it to the appointment that evening'

Thanks everyone for your answers to my query. Having now dug out my copy it says on the cover NON-OFFICIAL and NON-ENDORSED BY UBISOFT its not right that these people should have been able to make money out of this, need the time machine to go back to 2006 to stop myself buying it! Thanks for the tips everybody. Michael

Man,my dad got it for christmas along with SH4 and I saw that the Sunderland behind the case looked an awful lot like a GWX model,along with the type VIIIC.I simply put it down and left it here,great to see my dad wasted his money on something really bad.
