Greetings to all you brave captains,
After a loooong shore leave(i.e. ugly divorce

) I am back to spend some time with a lady the wont let me down(if I still remember how to captain her!!!)

I just installed this great game again, and I have a couple questions-

1) I have only patched to 1.4. Should I get the addon if I'm only interested in the pacific right now?

2) I really enjoyed the "super mods" when I last played. Are any of these mods compatible w/ 1.4? I have been reading up on them most of the day and it seems as they are mostly geared to 1.5. Mods like TMO, RSRDC

3) I see that W_clear and Kriller2 (You guys Rock!!!) are working on a new environment mod together, in the meantime, which ones mod would you suggest I use? Are any of thier mods in one of the campaign mods?

I would like to say that it is truely amazing the work that you modders are doing!!! When I first logged on the subsim today I thought I would just grab the mods I used last time I played, but holly sweetness!!, you guys have made this game 100 times better than when I last visited. You, gentlemen, are the cream of the crop!!!

Thank you all in advance for your thoughts, and its nice to be back!!!

yes definately get the ad-on v1.5 most mods are geared towards it and tmo and rfb for v1.4 are no longer supported but they are still around if you look. its not really a uboat ad-on, its more of a game engine tweak that makes the entire game run better and load faster while using less of your computer to do it. they also added a german side campaign while they were working on it.

to the bottom of tmo and rfb threads you'll see the v1.4 links but they moved on to v1.5 to fine tune their mods so the v1.4 they left as is so there may be some leftover kinks that never got worked out.

pe4 and env 5.0 are like twin sisters, they look simular but each has its own quirks.
as for them being in the mods yes tmo has one and rfb has the other i think, they are built into the mods.

rsrdc is not as much a mod as it is a campaign fix. it rewrites the entire game campaign to follow historic events and conditions. ships will be where they were in ww2 and not all over the map so stick to the historic shipping lanes on those dates.
