Whats Your Mod List?
 

We are all lucky to have a new sub sim to play.
Unfortunatly SH4 doesnt quite seem to have all the bugs ironed out just yet ,allthough I think its a great game anyway.
So it seems to have boiled down to installing mods to get the game running a bit better.
I thought It would be a good idea for people to share their mod lists and see whos got things working to their satisfaction.
I believe Ive got the game going pritty well " thanks to the resources of these forums " so here is my list of installed mods with a few notes about the tricky ones


Radio Pack; this is a combination of ted healys radio mod including jap
and american music packs hes sugested. The washington Station
is captain cox's CBS Captain Midnight set Ive turned this
all into one folder ready for installation with the mod enabler
USS-187_Sturgeon Salmon ; Skin
USS_Porpoise_Turmmailing ; Skin
USS Thresher SS-200 Tambor ; Skin
USS BALAO HI-RES V1.1 ; Skin
USS 272 Gato Redfin ; Skin
TORPEDO +25% more powerful
Submarine Bearing Tool (3000 Yards)
2RTR US Periscope v1.1
Brighter torpedo wakes
Fire FX Satge 1 ; from the Die Slowly Mod Pack
GREEN LOCK AND POSITION BUTTON 1.2
Guages ; OAKs HUD guages
JP Ship Dimension Fix1.0
Krillers terrain and harbour upgrade08
MAP TABLE MOD 1.0
Small Radar Contacts Stage 1
SMALLER SEABED ROCKS
SMALLER SEA PLANTS SMALL
REL_Trigger_Maru_ver1-1
SILENT SERVICE 1.2c GRAPHICS MOD
Improved Underwater Visibility Stage 2
Cameras ; Camera.dat file taken from Real Fleet Boat 1.27
Just More Ammo
Patrol Mod v1.2f
Stus Config ; My own settings of the CFG folder
MR_PPI_BK_RD_SC_40-20-8_8 ; from radar mod pack
Stus Orders ; my orders bar released under more orders buttons

As you guys can see ive used quite a few mods.
This list was exported directly from the generic mod enabler in the order of installation.
If anyone wants to try this config and cant find some of the mods post here and ill upload them. but im prity sure they are all on the Modifications List thread.
Its allso important to note not all these mods were quite ready for the mod enabler so make sure you check the folders before installing mods sometimes there are several options in sub folders.

Well I hope this helps people that arent sure witch mods to install.

If you think youve got a better combination then post it here. I would love to
Know what others have done with their game.

Now, if I just had some time to play and see how all this works together :o

Some of these are my own "mixes" and some are only for private use.
RFB has been tweaked by me to accommodate other mods etc.
Some are merged and don't show up with names (like the Better Jungle mod for example)

RFB128 by Beery and other mod creators
Sobers SH4_3d_waves by Sober
Sweaty_Crew by CaptainCox
Radar Sweep by Anvart
HydrophoneHeadRot by Anvart

Its quite interisting, we all seem to have verry similar mod lists.
From what ive seen so far we all seem to be aiming for the same result.
Just going about it with slightly different ways.
Maybe we should foreward this info to ubi soft so they can see where the
consumers believe the game needs improvement.
After all if we are all installing so many mods then thats got to say something.
I spose we are lucky that the game has been designed in a way where we can mod it.

Mine are very similar to captain Cox
