Default A little history,a lot of praise.

I recall playing SH3 on an old computer that was so slow that when I looked forward on the surface, the bow spray would lock up the screen. Later, with better PC enjoyed the game very much. Then we moved from boonies to urban local and found this new craze, the internet! First search on u boats and related topics revealed site called SUBSIM Radio Room Forums. I couldn't believe it. Read for days and many game play problems I had were answered by people like Jimbuna , Sailor Steve,and many other wise captains. I soon began to read about The Grey Wolves. At first I thought it was a new game, and I wanted to buy it. But no, it was a free download! To a computer dumb old guy this seemed out of reach. Chimps with learning problems have better PC skills. But with help from smart ass son, I was soon enjoying a whole new level of this great game. Now much braver, I downloaded a few skins from Jimbuna's File Front page. Thanks to great JSGME tool, [ God bless you sir!] I amazed myself! Now have Fubar's great typeIXC weathered and many other amazing mods. Thank you so much. I cannot say enough about the great modders who have made my favorite time waster so much more enjoyable and realistic. A tip of the old salt stained, weathered cap to all of you!
