Thats great Newinger, and thanks Luken for further positive feedback about SH5! I think i'll go with SH5 then, and I won't buy from Steam. I saw a DVD copy in a shop yesterday for just £10 (bargain) so i'll be off to collect it in a bit.
I was just reading this other post...

And SH5, as it is now thanks to modders, has that in spades compared with even the most heavily modded versions of SH3. Your crew isn't just icons on the screen that you haul from here to there anymore, they're actually fully animated characters that you can talk to. Your boat isn't just a collection of "stations" anymore, it's actually a living, breathing environment you can walk through while listening to their conversations in the background, hearing the radio blaring, the gramophone playing or whatnot. When you have water flooding your boat, you're actually wading through it...

This level of immersion sounds incredible. Especially the part about the sub actually flooding when damaged!
Would all of those features be present if I installed your list of mods Newinger?
