After looking at many of these photos in this thread, I dare say SH3 is still by far THE Silent Hunter simulation of all time. With all the mods and super mods done by so many talented people here in the forums over the years, it's no wonder many are going back to it and many are still playing it.

The proof is in the screenshots all have posted. :yeah: A hearty salute to you all.... mod makers and players alike. :salute:

Yes I agree, when HanSolo78's WAC 5.0 comes out it will take it up another notch or two for sure.:yep:

After a long break and being inspired by some LP's I've picked SH3 back again. Some shots from LzS. Maximillian von Bern first patrol.

These games can get disturbing a lot of the time. Not the game itself - but the fact that things like that happened to real people.

Sad but true. Great shot! :yeah:

Not sure if those escorts understand their job, Jim :hmmm:

The Cruel Sea :salute:

That's exactly what I was thinking of when I saw those shots! Great minds think alike...:D I loved the book, and I would pay a king's ransom to see a modern remake of the movie. Great shots from you and Steve.
