what is this crap - Page 2

See, Kpt Krenn?

Much better

Yes, the sim is pretty much hooey right out of the box, but you'll find no better community to turn it into pure Awesome! than this one. Just requires a little work, and we're here to help.

If you think it's crap now you should have seen it back when it was released. It was a nightmare. Anyway, Ubisoft have added a few patches now, fixing a few things, so make sure these are applied as automatic updates before you start using any mods.

Then install JSGME - if you are not familiar with it then this a little utility that simplifies installing and activating mods.

I suggest you start by taking a look at The Dark Wraith's NewUIs_TDC_6_9_0 mod. That gives you all the old SH3 / Sh4 controls back, such as the Helm, and more. It will give you a idea as to the quality of some of the mods that are available, and how much difference they can make.

With some mods the game gets really nice.

At first I wanted to insert a funny here but instead I'll just say that; Krenn, Mod it up. I'll bet your SH3 game isn't stock either. This Sim is just like SH3-4 in that you've got to mod it up. Remember, that's part of the fun. My version of SH 3, 4 and 5 doesn't look or play exactly like anyone else's, that's part of the fun.
I was scared the first night I played the tutorial, I loved the storyline then when I torpedoed my first ship it went straight up into the air slowly and came back down. I was floored too! Then when I loaded up the mods it all came together as the best/my favorite SH sim.
I really hope you give it a good chance before dropping it.
Welcome back.
