You'll need
JSGME to install these.
UI Mods - pretty much essential.
TheDarkWraith's MultiUI with minimal Dials TDC - This will entirely change the game for you. A full UI conversion which adds much missing functionality and a lot of entirely new features. Includes compass, rudder, teleporting, chalkboard, map features, pretty much everything.
Church's SH5 Keys keymapping - this restores SH3's keymappings people might be more familiar with and restores a lot of missing keymaps (some of which are fixed in today's patch).
Gameplay mods
Better and Realistic Floating and it's sister mod
Damage Assessment - these mods improve damage to targets meaning they'll sink by flooding, slow down when hit and other nice features that are missing in stock.
There's other gameplay mods I use too, but many are being fixed with the fabled 1.2 patch in mid-May (things like morale and command type mods.)
Graphics mods
Pretty much everything from Ailantd! - AilRain, AilWhiteInterior (paired with
sober's cream flooring) and AilClouds are the ones I use, but all his mods are beautiful!
HanSolo's Enhanced Funnel Smoke - this makes a huge difference. Engine type specific funnel smoke mod, really nice.
1000m bearing overlay - this is a overlay with a compass around your sub while you're zoomed in.
Mighty Fine Crew - a sound and animation mod which fixes a lot of crew animations and brings in things like the crew climbing the ladders when you dive/surface, bearded men and other nice changes.
and the most important mod of all:
Reboot's Hot Soup - this adds steam to the soup pot in the galley.
There's of course more mods available and desirable, but looking over what I have installed, these are the ones I consider most important.
