Regarding "super speed" - if you only mean high time compression
Yeah thats the one, I pretty much never use flank speed like you have said although I tend to cruise with full ahead, however I have never got to the point of running down my fuel past the half-full mark but thats just because I don't stay out long enough I believe.

For tactics you may want to visit my kielman website
Ok then, I may head over there a bit later and see what youv'e got going on Could aid me in my hunting i'm sure!

In real life you would be assigned a grid and expected to stay there until ordered to go elsewhere. The renown for arriving and for staying is eliminated in GWX
Ok then that sounds alright, so in GWX are your objectives still to stay there for 24 hours anyway despite no renown?

I am having a bit of trouble installing the Generic Mod Enabler atm, I am trying to set up the target shortcut for my silent hunter 3 folder. However my silent hunter 3 folder is located in a subset of my 'steam' games folder as steam does not install the game directly to your program files. It is saying it cannot find the file path specified, even though it is one of the suggestions when I am typing the file path into the box. I'm on Windows 7 also.
I hope that makes sense but I may head over to the mods section on this one.

Is anyone here familiar with the steam platform?

Thanks for your help

p.s. just installed the sh3 commander mod, hopefully it works ha

As far as the game is concerned your objectives are to do whatever you want. It doesn't matter at all.

Welcome aboard doomfreak777

Try the mod after you've become accustomed to the stock/vanilla version of the game....I'm confident you'll enjoy the GWXperience

If you find the "go here and patrol" bit too boring, you can try using SH3Gen. I've just started using it and have been having a blast with it. It's fun to get told to go into places I'd never go in my right mind. For example, last night I was told to sneak into Belfast and attack any ships there. Now that was exciting.

Was Bernard the duty officer who sent you there?
