First impressions of an old sailor

Kloef · 09-06-12, 12:21 PM

Made it through Gibraltar last night, no way that was possible in real life but i was lucky, enemy escorts and destroyers turning away at the right time and i was in visible range for some time but they didn't detect me, ah well the vanilla game has its problems, try that in SH3 GWX and you just know it was impossible..

Started modding yesterday and found out today they were not functioning

turned out i had my root all messed up, fixed the problem and i'm just on fire to discover all the new goodies and improvements

Tonight i'm gonna play till i fall asleep at my desk, one thing about SH games and this forum especially, makes me come back for more all the time even after being absent for a year i allways come back

Well, after a week or so the dvd is back in the box and the game unistalled, again....

Although there are some great mods out there i just miss the idea that things are fixed.

On my first patrol i sank 6 ships, returned to port only to ctd after 4 hours of play.

Another attempt left me with no UI, just white rectangles where the buttons were supposed to be.

So i'm gonna play SH4 TMO again and made a mark in my agenda to check this game again in 6 months..

Thanks all for the great tips and help with installing the mods!

You'll probably have the same problems again. Sounds like your hardware (computer) is not up to snuff. It appears you don't have enough video ram (graphics card) and/or enough system ram

So the hardware is actually my computer itself? Never noticed that

Specs:

E6600
Nividia GTS 250 1 gb
4 gb 800mhz DDR2 mem
7 Home Premium

Well it's an old pc but it's still above minimum specs for this game, on the other hand mods could stretch that demand above my specs, i recognize that..

Maybe when i buy a new one i will give this game a chance again.
