this is all I need to have the game running to my liking. The must have mods is Environment 5, NewUI's, IRAI & Open Horizons.

You are missing some must have mods in my opinion

Environment 5, newui's and IRAI are included in MO.
But there are newer versions of NewUI's and IRAI availible.

Open Horizons is only needed if you wish to continue after 1943. (not a must have, but definitely recommended).

NewUI's fixes the stadimeter. Plus greatly improves other features of the UI. And even adds some extra features.

The stadimeter does not work correctly in stock game

IRAI improves the AI of enemy ships.

Depth keeping problems mod, stops the uboat sinking when you go deep.

I just would add Critical Hits for Torpedos as a must have so you won´t need 3/4 torps to sink a single merchant, usually 2 wil suffice and be much more imersive.

Hey all

I'm in the same situation here a bit slowly getting back into sh5 myself.

So far I've already went a bit mod happy but will try the ui mods above since I have yet to find a ui mod that I like.

So my main question is this:

Has anyone ported over any longrange IX type ships yet?

Id love to take the new fx engine over to the gulf of mexico or even down around the cape and into the indian ocean.

Or do I have to go into shIV UBM for that fix?
