Ok boys,

Now the list of available mods is enormous and I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times but I can't find it in a sticky...

I loved SH3 and SH4, but sh5 is like pulling teeth.

So what I'd like is a list of mods that you guys thinks give the best experience you can with SH5. I'd like to use the TDC if I want too, I'd also like to be able to set the WO to do it.

Before in SH4 I would use auto targeting, and merely set the depth of the torpedo and let the comp work out the angle on bow, target speed etc. But now it seems I must use the full tdc if I want to access the recognition manual?

So which mods would bring me closest to a more traditional silent hunter experience?

Also I have a reasonable gc card, Radeon HD 5770 1 gb, but the graphics 'stutter' and walking about is very slow, should I just drop the resolution or will some of the graphics mods help this out?

Also while I love being able to run into any port I feel like and sinking the ship, I really think the destroyers should come looking for me, and not simply start toward me and then stop and never move again as I go about slowly sinking each of them! At the same time I do NOT want an AI mod that makes them as difficult to evade as they were in real life!

Anyway any advice would be awesome, I'm sure with a few mods I should back to enjoying Silent hunter... Or maybe I should break out the old SH4 u-boat missions...
