is there a new patch?
 

i've seen references to 1.5, or is that the Uboat addon?

Use the Search function! :roll:

I do all the time, never works good for me though.:o

"patch 1.5"=no matches

Patch 1.5 is the U-Boat add-on. :arrgh!:

the addon is patch 1.5

It's not a "patch", it's an "update." Patches are usually free...updates have new functionality (this one does).

I ponied up, ju$t in ca$e anyone want$ to make any $nide remark$.

Also, you're better off using Google (add the site:subsim.com parameter to your search) than the subsim search engine. Subsim's in fine company: HP and IBM have even suckier search engines.

So did I and to tell you the truth it is the best patch of them all IMO, adds stability to anotherwise Unstable game. Well worth the $9.99 price (from Neal's link btw).

I can agree with that. At first I was apprehensive about the add-on to say the least. I didn't really want it. About a week ago I gave in and got it. I'm glad I did. It is actually quite fun. I like the improvements to the American side. My one big annoyance is my sub not retaining its speed after loading a save like it will on the German side. That and my German crew speaking fluent English (I don't want to keep exiting the game to switch speech files, WAY to annoying :damn:). I also like the addition of the Type IXD2 U-boat. When it comes to U-boats, the Type IX is my favorite. It really always has been. I liked it in SH3, but rarely ever used it because running with only 1024x TC was so painful. It took forever to go anywhere. Now, with SH4 and 8192x TC, I can enjoy the Type IX in all its glory.
