Anyway to play battle of the atlantic?
 

I have tried with SH5 but shelved it in the hope that after many patches it may well shine.
But my conscience tells me it won't and that it's beyond help due to so many bugs and that ubisoft will drop it and the franchise like a lead balloon.
I have purchased SH4 and uboat expansion and also op monsun and al RSRD mods.
Is there anyway to replicate the battle of the atlantic?
Thanks.

SH3 is the answer!

OM is the answer! It started off with Monsun boats but has long since moved to encompass the whole of the U-boat war.

Be sure to get the Environment and Graphics Upgrade for it, too: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=158764

Looks great, don't it?

Check out the whole ATO mod forum in general.

I generally prefer OM to SHIII+GWX lately. There's only a few features I miss, and SH3 commander - on the whole, OM is super-solid and really well-featured. Up there with the best mods for any game.

Enjoy the trip. I've also come back from SH5 for another spin of OM just now.

Now THAT's an impressive screenshot!:up:

:yep: SH4 with OM will let you play the entire Atlantic war, and have a lot of fun doing it.

I still play both, because both have features I like. If SH4 had the equivalent of Commander and some of the harbor sights I'd drop SH3 and never look back.

CCIP; Nice Screens, all from OM huh?

I'll have to check that out down the road. Almost makes me want to retool RL_E for SHIV u-boat missions, almost.

Steve; Comander is great, it spoiled me a bit. But at least IV does not have the null-grid problem ;)

Very true, and UBM has the full 4-digit grids.:rock:

Unfortunately the great part of my time is spent working on the Ship Names mod, and that only works with Commander. Also, crew names in SH4 are pretty bad.
