Jude Law said I could join...

Dmeddings · 07-28-20, 05:09 PM

I've just joined the Subsim community so I would just like to say 'Ahoy' and thanks for having me.

I've been a flight-simulator enthusiast for many years and have put a number of perfectly good aircraft into the sea by accident. I'm therefore quite looking forward to descending beneath the waves deliberately for a change.

I found Subsim after watching the movie 'Black Sea' with Jude Law. It prompted the thought "I wonder if you can get a submarine simulator?". Clearly you can.

As a starting point I have installed Silent Hunter 4 (from Steam) and plan to use the stock version until I get used to it. I have been reading about the various mods here on the forum and have also read about the stock game's shortcomings. I must say however that my first-time experience of the out-of-the box product has been very enjoyable.

I dare say I'll become more critical as time goes by. Then bitter. Then twisted.

Cheers.

Welcome to Subsim, Dmeddings and also welcome to a much larger world.

I think you will find after researching the extensive list of mods, there are many enjoyable simulations here. Look for Silent hunter 3 with GWX and Silent Hunter 5 as well. You mentioned Silent hunter 4 and there is also a " supermod " for that as well called "Fall of the rising Sun "developed by Rockin Robbins and others in the team. Look for it.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I look forward to learning more about the games and hopefully I will be able to contribute something of value to the community once in a while too.

Yes you're in for a treat. I've always been a keen flight simmer but the war at sea is something else... the most amazing sims here
