Should i put RSRD campaign in and use that instead?

I really love these nuc beauties, the 688 and ohio are my personal favourites, If the 688 had the same benefits as the ohio i would be using that instead. Great work and props to the guys who shoe horned them into the game.

Is it me or do the crew go like billy ho when in battlestations? they seem to load torps really quickly and it seems to crash dive a lot quicker..
Haven't heard about the repeat mission bug in a while. If I remember correctly it's caused by running the mod with a stock install. Try using RSRDC and see if that fixes it. As for the 688, what benefits does it not have over the Ohio?

well the obs scope lets me hunt a little deeper and ive been caught a few times with those homing torps. being deeper ive had a few of them chase me, but not dive to get me, so ive just led them into a destroyer or whatever. (I'm still getting the hang of submerged shooting, Those tomohawks are damn beautiful)

It also has the radar mast, and the quick torp loading crew.


Minor detials i know lol but it just seems a litlte more polished.

I only had a minute to test Ohio lastnight, but it seems that the Los Angles class is more manuverable, witch an attack sub should be. And faster, but i cannot confirm that. Other than that, they seem the same.

Default Trouble getting it to work

I downloaded the file extracted DatabaseOhio from Zip Ohio and placed it into the MODS folder created by JSGME and then proceeded to place MODS folder into the SH4 program files then enabled the DatabaseOhio MOD in JSGME, I also checked and made sure I did not double place it. I just can not seem to get it to work. I can not select it from any of the sub selections in either quick missions or career. If someone could please help me out.

Thanks
Joe

Where do you have JSGME installed at? You shouldn't have to move JSGME's MODS folder anywhere.

That is because the Ohio does not come with a deck gun and AA guns. It is a modern nuclear submarine, you basically stay submerged and fire homing torpedoes.

wow noones posted on this in about 4 months... any ways, lo all im new here... i did have silent hunter 4 but then my comp got wiped before i get get mods for it, this thing sounds sweet... do any of you think there is possibly a way to make this work 4 SH5? And if not, do any of you know of any sub mods for SH 5 that are actually sub mods not just color or outside of the sub?

Not possible at all. Like Marka said you need to model an interior for it to work in SH5. That being said there are no other playable ships/subs/aircraft/icebergs etc. for SH5 due to the interior model being needed as well.As for gameplay videos, nothing much has changed so the videos you found are valid examples.

Personal Opinion: I have SH1-4 and will not be adding 5 to my collection for various reasons. Chiefly the DRM and perceived general lack of care for the game on Ubi's part.

ETR3(SS) you served on the Kentucky?


i have silent hunter 5 and i'm gonna be honest here i played it for about 30 minutes and switched back to SH4. I've been playing with the ohio mod for over a year now . Now i'm trying the russian boomers and man with the mission editor this game will never get old.

Well my goal with the 688i was on realism based off of knowledge from the internet, and a very small amount from being on an Ohio (the scopes on an Ohio IRL are the same height, and it isn't the taller one). The torpedoes coming back after you is a problem with the homing torpedoes from stock. After reading all of this makes me wonder what version of 688i you have.

Well i just gave the Ohio her Sea Trials, and i still prefer the Los Angles class/688i. But that is based off two factors. One, she has a shallower draft, thus, harbor attacks. Second, I had this problem with 688i, but it somehow remidied itself. My Ohio is just a bloody Black hull. It looks...wrong. A turd in the water.

That's weird it should have the black/red hull only the 1.4 version has the black hull
