Im getting the itch to sub simulate again. My problem last time was I couldn't figure out how to install the mods.

The game was conversely both too easy and too hard. Too easy in the sense that the destroyers were super dumb. I only got killed by them if I made a huge mistake, or left time compression on while the ship was in danger and didn't have time to react.

The planes were not much of a threat at all. They never fired on me, I would think planes would be a huge threat to subs on the surface. There was barely a sense of danger while immersed in the sub simulator, as long as I had sea floor below me and could dive, I could get away from the destroyers escorting the massive convoys before they could get me. I guess the most difficulty I had was heading towards the UK in the harbor and the depth to the seafloor was like only 40 feet from the surface. Didn't give you any room to dive.

Conversely I found the game too hard. There was a mission I lost, that was around when I hung the game up because as far as I could tell it was impossible to beat the mission. I had to sink an allied troop-ship, I think it was in Scapa Flow. For one thing Ill be honest, I don't know where Scapa Flow is, other than it is heavily referenced in the game. I went to each of the coordinates high command gave me and then it said I had to return to the main base since I failed to sink the troop ship, all that work and time out at sea for literally nothing. I found that to be frustrating and was about the same time I shelved the game.

Im gonna delete a hard drive partition so I can install this game, here is what I need out of this thread and you the forum members.

Can someone link me to an extensive modification that makes the destroyers AI smarter, the planes actually will attack the submarine, easier access to the officers on the ship other than walking right up to them to talk to them, and tips on how to find that darn troopship? Nothing like killing 2000 or so soldiers with a few torpedoes.

I also need the modification installer, Im gonna give it another try.

I have to admit, without some kind of extensive modification, I got a few hours worth of entertainment from the game before I found the game was badly broken. It was frustrating finding the troop ship, the enemies were too freakin dumb to sink my sub, and the planes were practically pointless since they didnt so much as report my position or attack me with their machine guns.

Please help me, I would most appreciate it.
