Captain's journal on Tumblr

About my mods, I remember modding SH5 the old way 2 years ago, adding my favourite ones including realistic sinking time and also no U-boat hull percentage. Meaning if there's a plane that drop bombs on my deck (Like I've tested before starting the tumblr) my hull won't drop, but my engines will be damaged, I won't be able to dive because of flooding, and my U-boat can even sink!
The game ends when I hit about 300 metres.
I think that's a crucial realistic element, and since my SH5 is modded old school, I know there's a file that can easily be overwritten and can delete that mod without having any real chance of finding it back on the forums.
My point of this post is: My SH5 I modded to be realistic, but I can't add more otherwise many things could go wrong.

EDIT: I should also point out that the first patrol wasn't meant to be published, I've written many fictional diaries before and it was after writing it that I published it.
The second patrol will be much more professional, I just found out how "childish" some of the writings were, and I was also disturbed by the lack of attempt to blend the stadimeter issue with reality.
One sure thing, I did learned a lot during that "shore leave" between the first and second patrol.

That screenshot looks really good. Looks like you got caught in a bombing raid

lol yeah, the sun was bombing around us with UVA and UVB rays, we decided to deploy the emergency sun cream bracing ourselves for the upcoming day!

Well, if anyone is interested, the tumblr is soon going to include the second patrol.
It's now set to post 3 times a day, and my photoshop is now set to apply a specific black and white filter to all in-game photos, so expect some nice burning tankers in all the glory that color blindness can give you!
