Brand new SH4 user, completely lost!!

sbrenn01 · 05-27-14, 10:24 AM

Hi,
I downloaded SH4 from Amazon, paid my fee. I have the game, and I figured that "sub school" was a tutorial, or a wlak-through. Sadly, I am in the control room with no idea of where I am or what I'm doing. I could go into a long explanation of how lost I am; looked through the periscope into darkness, took 30 minutes to figure out how to locate/read incoming radio traffic.
.
The bottom line: Isn't there a user's guide PDF file, or some type of manual, explaining the game itself? Obviously this is a complex game, many screen. Of course I looked around, located a 'crew' page, engine order telegraph etc. Tried to plot a course, unable to erase accidental plot, couldn't zoom in/out.
.
The ubisoft website is no help.

SOS!!

Weren't there also some videos in the folder structure somewhere? Or was that only on the DVD.
