Other U-boats

[Flemish]

I just met with some other U-boats, they heading 30°. Should i link up with them and follow or should i stik to my objective. Problem is i dont know what objective the u-boats have...
Maybe i am lucky to find a big convoy wich complete my mission's objective or nearly complete. Any advise? Thank's

Are you using the IRAI mod by TDW?
If you are - when you follow them and they get to within 20km of a target - they will switch to attack mode and you can join in the wolfpack attack (great fun).

Yes, but an old version. You should get the new one and install it after Magnum Opus

I don't use any mod. Should I? Small detail, i'm in the second mission part of the game. After blockade of Germany. Now i should sink merchants with military goods or sink 200,000t merchants...So i dont think its the black pit mission..

Yes
The game without using at least some mods is broken.
See here for some mods you should look at http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=190656

Just be wary about adding too many - this can have the same effect as having none

Ok, maybe it is better. But there are so many mods and stuff i can't see the wood through the forest... So i don't really know wich one i should download...
I've got:i7, 2g gpu, 8Ram and windows 7 64bit...
So i think i dont have any "limits" in installing the mods, but i dont want to download to many. The most important should do it for me....
tnx

Ok, thanks i will take care of it. but when i follow that tutorial and look for the mod enabler i can't find it or look "over" it. Do I need that first? Or do i need do download these above only? And can you make te link for the mod enabler too...

tnx again

You'll obviously need to download the MODs and the JSGME to install/enable them. It is also helpful to install MODs for other games.

I can only strongly advise you to use the mods Trevally highlighted, it will improve the game extremely.

In addition to the ones he pointed out, i can only recommend:

SteelViking's Interior Mod V1.2 (This will make all the dials in the sub actually work and overhaul nearly everything in the ship (valves, doors, floor) Personally, the colors where too bright for me so after that, i installed Dark_Interior_V1 to have working dials AND a gloomy feeling)

MCCD "More Crew Commands by Dialog" MOD (this will make you able to give the crew more commands (eg. charge batteries to LI or depth under kiel/weather forecast to navigator. The best thing is that you can give some commands through the Officer on the Tower, no need to climb down. It runs smoothly with the Mighty Fine Crew MOD.)

Mighty Fine Less Annoying Footsteps 1.0 (self explaining, stock sound is like a ballet dancer on a gully)

A good strategy when deciding about MODs is to just sort them by download count. A MOD with 5000+ downloads is usually sweeter than one with 15.

Hope that helps


good hunting!

P.S. Look at me, 10 days in this forum and already talking like a pro
