Default Sea Wolves - Submarines on Hunt

Has anyone seen this new download for Silent Hunter 111 called Sea Wolves - Submarines on Hunt?? It claims to enhance the game with improved graphics, sounds, missions and scripts..among others. It costs about ÂŁ20 as a download..

Since no one has come out and said it, ill say it as concisely with as few words as possible.

The Expansion / download to which you refer to is a collection of mods that they most likley just got off the internet, ( most of them made by people here); repackaged for commercial profit.

There is nothing in that "sea wolves" that you cannot obtain from here, absolutley free. Again, because they are mods made by the community, not X1 software. Hence you'll see alot of signiture pics like this one:

I see the content of this pirate mod

Rub and IUB as a big compilations of free mods are better, very superior , than this payware compilation of stolen mods.

with rub , iub and some other mods over, nobody needs this payware mod.

:/\: :/\!! :/\chop

Before you do that, launch a couple of acoustic torpedos.

And yet, when a call went out for exactly what unauthorized mods were on Seawolves all went silent.
But, I would never consider the First Seawolves either as I like modding. I think RUB is way off and modded the hect out of it.
However, for those that do not mod many have said they liked Seawolves.
But, Spulman, if you choose to add mods there are many people that will help you here to work through any problems and better than any commercial project. You get better help on SH3 from people here than from UBI as well.

But, the next Seawolves is a totaly different add on. Many new ships and campaigns including the Black Sea 30 Flotilla, 23rd Flotilla out of Salamis, Scharnhorst and Gneisenau operation Berlin, Norway Juno, many destroyers and cruisers as well as merchant ships and even AI subs; British Italian and U-Boats (No wolfpacks though, darn!)

Wulfmann

Below, HMS Arethusa class CL, Twins in operation Berlin and a British T class sub. The port is Salamis, Greece and the U-baot is the foreground is AI, mine is in front of the pen. I have been beta testing and advisong Seawolves but do not work for them.

And how did they make the AI subs move? I guess they figured out that themselves and did the proper hex-editing if they are going to sell the add-on. You can ask them what files they hex-edited and in what way to make sure that they did the whole thing themselves.

These guys who ripped of the modders are now being ripped of themselves. <Mod edit: That was a serious no-no! JCC>

You know, it's just not even tempting , what with RUb, IUb, SH3 Commander and tons of other great mods available for free.
