I play 95% realism. The only 'cheat' I use is stabilized view, because I'm not that good at guesstimating distance on a bouncing sea.

I don't do anything that's not mentioned in the Uboat Commanders Handbook.

I play on 90% realism cause I like to take screenshots in free cam mode.

Though I’ve been eager to start using the Longer Repair Times mod in career it seems to conflict with the GWX Late war sensors schnorkel antennas mod. Therefore I'm not using the LRT as I would have to disable it anyway, if I against all odds, survive to the later years of the war when the GWX Late war...-mod becomes important.

AFAIK late war sens is mainly(only) about basic.cfg? So it can be easiely done. LRT doesn't work with SH3 Cmd, that's all.

Overkill all the way with LongerRepairTimes and RealNavigation mods. The game settings are only at 90%, because I have still activated the external view. But that's just because I like to watch the boat when nothing important happens and don't use it to get an unrealistic amount of information.
On top of that I play DiD of course.

I use the external cam the same way. I didn't wait 20 years for someone to finally make a really beautiful subsim and not enjoy it.
