Subsimmers gaming room

Any good tips as how to set up a nice subsim gaming room. I have a gaming PC in a LARGE "closet"/small room.

First thought is to buy a red light bulb. Hehe.

Any other tips/ good threads? Search did not work out for my; hard to find the right keywords.

To make it that bit more realistic get a desk fan and spray water into your face for when your in a storm

Make sure you don't wash or shave at all when playing as well as leaving some diesel, sweat and salt water soaked rags in the room to give it that true U-boat Funk.

I wonder if the floor will rock with the motion of the boat? Now that would be something.

Anyways that guy has way too much time on his hands and probably more money then he actually needs.. Im going to also guess he is not married.

I showed my wife his page..and she says Im headed in that direction.

But seriously. I dont have the money or the time for something like that. Besides If I did do something that crazy..I would soon be headed for a straight jacket fitting.

that room is amazing!
not sure what he cut holes in the damn walls for though?
it'd be nice to install a periscope also, spy on the neighbours or just figure out what the weather is like
