Welcome :salute:

installing IV as I type... unfortunately they dropped the gold deal for $9.99 (of course) but I still got the base with the naval academy to look forward to hehe:D

If you want mods you'll need the U-boat Missions Expansion. :hmmm:

so i have just learned; steam won't even patch to 1.4 w/o buying the expansion. should have just sprung for the $19.99 from amazon... oh well since i'm kind of locked in steam now it's too late. i'll get it eventually of course cause what really intrigued me was the trigger maru pack...

well having done some of the tutorial, even with the tutorial settings... wow i don't think i should have started at a beginning difficulty of 65 haha. ok maybe it's not that but i did it with manual TDC control on... maybe it's just me but it seems difficult to become skillful with the manual settings, or i just suck at basic geometry, which is also true... still, somehow i managed to disable a vessel via a torpedo shot on the screws, and thus disabled it... which let me practice various angles and offsets to get a handle on what i am attempting to do and i managed to snag a direct blow amidships which blew it sky high. i want to keep playing lol. but i can see i am going to get schooled so hardcore. going to have to watch some of these tutorial videos on youtube on how to use the manual tdc

:sign_yeah: When you consider the hours of fun and the time the modders place in their work, cost should not be a factor. Order it from Amazon if you have to and use the Subsim link. You won't regret it. :up:
