This is truly the most fun possible in Silent Hunter 4. The sense of accomplishment in putting two torpedoes into a target you've never seen is unimaginable. Then you find out you've just sunk the USS Enterprise....

Use with care, gentlemen.:rotfl:

I was just browsing around, and while I already knew this technique, while I was watching, I couldn't help but notice the chrono in this video is what appears to be the original that came with the game.

I would much prefer to have this older chrono. I don't need the time on my stopwatch, I get that from the digital readout in the lower righthand corner. All the chronos we have now, are so cluttered, sometimes you can't really read it.

Often, the "time hands" are covering up the chrono readout.

They look nice, but I would prefer something more simple. I've posted similar sentiments before. Can anyone tell me how to put the orginal chrono back in ? Thanks !

Hi,

the links to the hires files are down. Could you offer a new link, please?

Thanks,
Paco.

Unfortunately WernerSobe is no longer on these forums so it is unlikely the links will ever be updated.

I am keeping all Werner's videos available in the first post of the stickied Sub Skipper's Bag of Tricks thread. Also available there is the only other sonar only technique ever developed, the Dick O'Kane Sonar Only method. Just click the link in my signature.

Very useful!

Blankkor just resuscitated an year-old-dead thread here, but indeed it is a great thread. Worth re-reading. Worth rating too.

This server move (6 years on ) is a real pain

Bumb because i have missed this somehow , always nice to learn new things.

First post in my Sub Skippers Bag of Tricks Thread has a link to WernerSobe's video. Well worth watching and using the information. He uses sonar to do a regular position keeper approach and firing. Just click the link in my signature.

A blast from the past. The main thing I remembered about these videos from all these years ago was when he said "I can now disarm the bomb". I always found the default stopwatch sound to be really annoying. I eventually ended up modding it so it's much more quiet. Now it sounds more like a stopwatch and less like big ben.
