But do not forget to clean the registry first, then clean up, delete the SH3 folder from my documents, SH3, and use the disc at the uninstalled

its all good now, the gameplay is back to impossible. got destroyed by two fast mosquitos just outside brest. i tried to take them on because they were so close i had no time to dive. they strafed everyone on the tower and one of there bombs hit my deck. my god they are so fast. wish i could capture video but fraps is not compatible with the resolution fix.

What's the realism of when you play,

haha yea 4000x i didnt know it harms my game. im doing 128-256 now.

realism used to be 84% now I toned it down to 65%. I like it difficult, I get bored fast if I sink lots of ships. I just restarted the campaign and managed to get out of biscay unharmed but I had to crash dive many times and I took out a b24. waiting for a escort carrier to home in on my radar so i can get my revenge.

It sounds good, but use low-TC or real time which is best,

Wow, not to often you come across someone who's happy about being destroyed. I think I'll take a screen shot!

I was playing at 1k/2k until I recenty read a thread on here talking about how 128 should be the max , otherwise you will miss out on contacts/aircraft etc

the moment I started at 128 , approaching the english channel from the east , I see a formation of He-111's flying over....what a sight !

halfway thru the channel I was divebombed twice by an Anson , he flew off without even scratching my paintwork

Ive seen lots of aircraft since then too...the game is much more enjoyable a this speed I think

Lower TC is the best, or nothing at all like I mentioned earlier,

Would have been a shame to miss that. Glad you're finding it more fun!

I did not know that tc can affect game this much. From now on only small or none tc for me.
Thanks guys for the refreshing info...

Wait until he learns that it is possible for the player to hear contacts on the hydrophone almost twice as far as the AI sonarman. That slowed down my play a huge amount.

Dive
All stop
Scan 360 degrees
Ahead standard
Surface the ship
Cruise 1 - 2 hours at 32 - 64 TC

repeat

In aircraft prone areas the TC is 8 - 16

It sometimes takes me 2 -3 gaming sessions to even get to my patrol area.
