there are two forums for SH4 players,
Silent Hunter 4: Wolves of the Pacific
and
SH4 Mods Workshop
each of those forums has dozens of threads.
i suggest looking through the threads that are "sticky" as they will contain the most wisdom for a newbie.

Getting used to the forums seems like its been a decade since I used one LOL

if you find that the search engine here a bit unsat, perform a browser search using this as a prefix:

....followed by a space and the keywords you wish to search for. you may have more success that way.

Yeah I do tend to Google and then it brings me here.

other than that, i would suggest that you research Large Address Aware and JSGME.
the first is a memory access tool that allows SH4 to use up to 4 gig of your computer's RAM. without it, i believe that it uses something less than 2 gig. this tool will make all the difference in the world, especially when you begin to play with the mega-mods that are available.
the second is the tool that you will use to install/deinstall mods and mega-mods. the whole name is Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler.
both are available in the MODS forum here at Subsim.

Those two were the first on my list one for the extra memory and of course the other to just install mods. I just got my copy off steam for SH4 with the Wolfpack add on but is there any kind of community patch that fixes any lasting bugs. I dealt with the time compression bug but found the post that express never to overwrite a save and that seems to have taken care of it but beyond graphics looking better I love to clear out known bugs and any awesome tools folks can suggest.

and of course, you should read the FAQs and Rules, just to understand that we have manners here. 
and then go sink some ships and have fun.

At the level I am playing now the sinking is taken place rapidly just had a 36,000 ton patrol so I will be starting a new career very soon and going manual TDC as well as upping the difficulty I think I ready now. Again much appreciated your response.
