SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - New captain here, what mods should I get?

I'm a sim fan who has never played a sub sim before. I enjoy learning the ropes and getting deep into the complexities of navigation, tactics, mechanics and all that good stuff. I like study sims.

However, I'm lost on mods. Before I boot up Silent Hunter 5, what important mods should I install? I'm running Windows 8 64-bit, with a good GFX card and CPU.

If there are any important popular "realism" mods that overhaul the mechanics, it's better I learn them now instead of switching to them later, unless it makes the learning curve too intense.

Also, can anyone recommend good submarine books that would help me improve my game and learn about subs?

Thanks!
