Default Hi

Greetings folks i just got sh5 after some time away from the series i played sh4 a small amount but never realy liked being a yank as apose to a grey wolf (nothing against americans i just love naval history more specifly the uboat campaign of ww2.)

So i just registerd here and was wandering if anyone could recomend a few mods/addons to improve my game nothing too hardcore or complicated to begin with just i read that the base game isnt that great and its mods that make it what it is, so any recomendations to start me off maps/graphics/crew etc etc

Many thanks

Hi there,

I had just the same question about a week ago!
Orpheus and others made suggestions and helped me get my game modded up... see here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=187119

Hope that helps,
C_G

Been trying most of the night to get it working in s h3 mode but no matter what i do it wont display once i reload the game, sure ive followed everything ok but im getting tired now so il try again in the morning.

Ps- if i enable a mod using the mod enabler and it greys a prevoius mods text in the right hand box..does it mean that the mod installed first wont work anymore?

that just means that two files are using the same file. The one you enabled after will overwrite the previous. This may or may not cause instablities depending on what your changing.
