Welcome to SubSim SculpinSubDriver.

Welcome

Welcome aboard SculpinSubDriver!
We're always happy to have new members to harass, er, ahh, help.

As you peruse the forums, you will come across such members as me, Armistead, Wolferz, Donna, Swamprat, and others who are members of a highly exclusive, and respected club called Ubirats. We are all members that have befriended each other over at the Ubisoft forum. With changes they made that we didn't like, we came here in search of acceptance. We forced the membership to accept us and now we have our own, dedicated thread under General Topics. It's called "The Bilge." Actually, we had to accept it as part of the agreement to let us stay. Since you came from the Ubisoft forum, you may be accepted as an automatic member. I don't know, we'll have to discuss it.

While you're waiting for acceptance into our club, you can go help polish the props. The crew polishing them seem to keep getting banged up for some reason.

To many mods in the download section to simply list them all here and give any kind of good detailed description of them unless you want to read for the next 8 hours.

Descriptions of them are listed with them in the download section and you can also read about them in their perspective thread about their creation and workings.

Wow, bookoo replies. I very much appreciate the support.
Two more questions
1. Again for dummies, how do you install mods?
2. How do I change my avatar (I think that's what it is called)?
Thanks again

I have played 688i for a bit and am wondering how Sub Command compares with it.
Anyone have experience with both that would be willing to share pros/cons?
Thx

Most mods can be directly installed following the folder path. Inside the folder with the mod name should be another folder that says 'Data'. You can just put that Data folder into the main folder and your computer will do the rest.

Now that you know that, don't bother. Instead use JSGME. It will do it for you, and has the added benefit that if you don't like that mod you can easily remove it again.

The Subsim avatars are built in. They will change themselves with post count, but the only way to have a custom avatar is to make a small donation. Sorry, but that's one of the ways Subsim stays alive.
