Welcome aboard.

The best place to check is http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/forumdisplay.php?f=219

Real Fleet Boat (RFB) and Trigger Maru (TM) are the ones to check out. Both have their individual qualities and depends on what realism you wish to take on. Both are excellent super mods in their own right. Great effort by both teams in my books.

Run Silent Run Deep Campaign (RSRDC) is virtually a complete re-write of the campaign files and is excellent. It is based on research and lurker_hlb3 has done a terrific job simulating the events.

Then of course there are the Environmental and Pacific Environment mods that truly change the whole aspect of the 3d environment. Absolutely amazing work by these guys involved.

Anyway, check the link out as there are many more amazing mods for the grabbing by truly creative and skillfull persons.

patch It First !

I'm very happy with

Real Fleet Boat
RSRDC
Websters deckgun mod
Websters torpedo mod

these do it all for me
You will need to patch first, then restart.
best to use JSGNME to manage your mods

Good luck and good hunting !

Oh ... what version did you get?

There are more mods than you could imagine you surely can customize it to your taste. But we need a starting point.

i dunno what version i got but im gonna start patching now, i got the graphics cranked down to the LOWEST setting and the thing still isnt "playable" i hope to god a patch will fix it. do i just need to download the latest patch? or do i have to download all of them to fix all the problems.

What graphics card are you running? If you are trying to run this on an intergrated video chipset you are going to run into all sorts of problems.

FIREWALL · 08-12-08, 08:55 PM

Latest patch is all you need.

....are you referring to standard SHIV or SHIV Gold Edition?

If it is the Gold Edition.... I'm sending a nastily worded e-mail to Amazon....I pre-ordered ages ago..and i'm still waiting...

Atony94 · 08-12-08, 11:46 PM

lol its the regular version i looked for the gold version at walmart but they didnt have it, i installed the latest patch which was 1.4 and the game is working great now thanks guys.

jamz · 08-13-08, 12:13 PM

Depending on your video card there may be some driver updates to that that will help as well.

Ivan Putski · 08-13-08, 01:57 PM

Seminole, the Gold version was released at Amazon today, and my order is being shipped. Puts

Seminole · 08-13-08, 02:13 PM

Ivan Putski · 08-14-08, 12:14 AM
