Sh4....slowly getting there!!

Been playing SH4 since it came out.

Like many here, there have been ups and downs, some due to the bugs in the game, some due to my own ignorance and lack of patience

I have GWX installed, along with some other games, but I have to say that I keep coming back to SH4. I have installed and uninstalled various mods, tweaked a few myself and the game has gotten to be pretty enjoyable. This is dam good considering the game is just over 2 months old, and yes unfinished when it came out.

Current Mods:

- Ducimus's FTT 2.4 ( did a few of my own tweaks with it: wanted external cam plus deleted the zones.cfg file, I am ok with the stock version ). This is a great mod, read me explains it well.
- Ultimate Sound Mod, by Gunther Hessler.
- Captain Cox's Silent Service Mod 1.0, I have not updated to the current one, like this one for now .
- TORPEDO +25% more powerful by CaptainKobuk.
- Captain Midnight's CBS New Mod by Captain Cox. Great radio mod.
- Battle Stations & Silent Running on all Hud Stations by Iceburg
- Various Sub-skin Mods
- Various period songs\speeches on the grammaphone , about 25-30 selections.

Like the new eye-candy in the game, the various missions ( no longer are you just going to a grid patrolling for 24 hours ) you have tasks to do now, of course you still get to sink some tonnage. Also loved the Atlantic Theatre, but it is nice to have a change.

Anyway, hopefully we will see the third patch soon, and the great modders here will continue to do their thing Plus with time there will be a SH4 Super-mod, so there is great potential for this game going forward

I Totally agree its worthy and I am glad to be back in the Pacific
I love the american boats above all others of those years.

as far as it goes I use some different mods than you.
but what im doing now is making two compilation
mods.

the first compilation is repairs to the game like the
american torpedo bomber flight profile or being able
to open all tubes.

the second would be a version of all the stuff I like like
new periscopes Gui changes and such as well as extending
the career to begin earlier in december, and also including
a reduced pearl harbour attack, etc.

above these two "Base mods" repair and enhancement then I
intend to do my boat mod beyond those things.

Nice post.

If we get a patch 1.3, and with continued modding from the community, I can only see SH4 getting better and better.

Thanks. Although I mentioned the mods that I currently use, folks should check out the others as well

After 2 months into SH4, the modding is further along than SH3 was at
2 months and you know how it turned out after time.....

Can only say that i never ever played a SP or MP game this intense, and I used to be a hardcore Battlefield (all versions) gamer. Love to play it love to mod it
Mods I am using at the mo

I am working to port my favorites to be used with Real Fleet Boat...for personal use of course.

The torpedo power mod is not neccessary. All you have to do is play long enough to get a powerup boost to the crew and the torpedos become more destructive.
