Last weekend I installed SOF. After seeing this post, I remembered I had a disk sitting on a shelf gathering dust. When I first tried the sim it ran poorly on my XP machine so I shelved it. This time I installed it on a Win 7/64bit build with a nVidia GTX 1660, and it runs smoothly at 1980x1080 using XP sp2 compatibility settings.
I 'm having fun playing the default game. The game has its ups and downs but is pretty good overall. WWI u-boats have some Interesting history to explore with new challenges. The WWI era u-boats required me to adjust my approach and mindset , and is different from what I use for SH3/SH4 . Im trying to find first hand accounts and apply their techniques to the game. Im interested in manual targeting.
I plan to stay with the default game and then try some of the game's mods from Subsim. I've read through most of the older posts . If anyone has tactical tips, thoughts etc on SOF I'd really like hear about them.
