Default how i play silent hunter 3 gwx

well I was able to successfully transfer the game map to my desk, which was quite a task. After carefully recording the speed of my sub= v11c and starting a campaign with the objective of not looking at the game map in the game. I left BREST, but before I left, I use two chess sets one chess set metal the other plastic. Gave each piece the name of the each man in the sub ,that's 46 men I also had to identify the offices from the sea man.one of the things that is good about writing this that nobody will probably read it silent Hunter three GWX is out of fashion.but I come here most every day, to look and read what's going on. I did buy destroyer command I also purchased silent Hunter five. To make a long story not too long my first attempt was successful small island just to the right I should leave the in land waterways. My second attempt was to reach that island then proceed to Long Island BF 24 never got to the first island question what had I done wrong it seems that one needs a T-square 90° and a 90° angle to make a 90° linethat was amazing gotten the first island on,time adjusted my course to the second island after diving a number of times because of aircraft, and radar detection 20 min. early I had made some adjustments to my speed by running at 11 kn instead of 10 wasn't necessary hope you all have a wonderful day. All be in the light

I read it. Silent Hunter III might be old but, it is the best one going right now IMHO.

Rebel: enjoy Destroyer Command: most useful when overrunning to ram a uboat is to remember it's crashdive depth (60meters) and set the 'cans' to 100 and 50 metres so as to ambush almost by deflection. I still play on win 98 along with Aces of the Deep and SHII.

I don't understand your comment, Especially if you come here every day, then you can't help but see lots of activity on the SH3 forums, including plenty of references to GWX3.0 (like 4 GWX-specific threads started in the past 4 days, not counting this one.). Somebody's writing this stuff, and others are reading and responding. As far as mods are concerned, since July 1, 2013, there have been 7 new mod uploads to SH3 on the SubSim downloads pages and 4 new release posts to the SH3 Mods Workshop. (All are marked as "GWX3.0 Compatible".) This compares favorably to 2 uploads and 3 release notices for SH5 and 3 uploads and no release notices for SH4. Seems there is apparently a lot of development still going on for SH3 and GWX3.0, as well. So, I don't see why you would say that SH3-GWX3.0 is "out of fashion" or headed that way.

Default hi Jim

still here have wonderful memories of Texas and meeting all the what will I called then. The still great people who played the game. As I've played this game, I can see in many ways how I play my life. I've seen you as, still being active here. Neil being a wonderful gracious person, Capt. Lehman and me trying to get inside information on silent Hunter 3GWX and how to win the game. They wouldn't tell me anything. Well with that I don't want to get caught up with my own blah blah blah it's September 5, 2013 it's 90° and it's 10:45 a.m. they say it's going to be 110 here in Arizona it's been so hot I haven't even rode the motorcycle . All be in the light

Hi Rebel, I too am a dedicated SH111/GWX fan, tried 4/5 but still keep coming back to SH111 much better game play (my opinion) if i can stop it crashing (hardware problem). Dont complain about the weather when I get the bike out over here i keep getting wet.

Mark.

I totally agree. I played 3,4 and 5 and always come back to 3 / gwx3... (and I have a pc that can run everything smoothly)
