Default Destroyer Command game and mods

I still have Destroyer Command running under Windows 7.

I made several copies as backup on an Exterior hard drive. this way I was able to add most of the mods I wanted they have in the Download section here.

And should I have any problems with the mods, I can always go back and recopy the originals again and try to redo them again.

I got the Kriegsmarine and Sealords mods added, which allows you play the big ships of the German navy. And missions in the Atlantic.

A few years ago, I came across another mod Italian. MARE NOSTRUM. A great mod with well detailed Italian ships. Missions in the Meditterrean.

With the added mods for water, sky, land, sun, the game runs and looks a lot better than when it first came out.

I'm enjoying the playability of Destroyer Command for now, since there are not too many naval sims out other than Silent Hunter. Way too much submarine sims and not enough Surface action.

Keep an eye out for Atlantic Fleet coming out.

Default Destroyer Command - still playable for me

Destroyer Command still remains the only playable naval sim for me to play. It may have some gliches in it, but still a worthwhile game.

I downloaded the extra mods like Sealords and Kriegsmarine which allow you to play and command the big ships of the German Navy in World War Two. Like Bismarck, Graf Spee, Scharnhorst. etc.
There are other mods in the Download section worth looking into.

Also click on the following link to the old, original Subsim Download mods
http://www.subsim.com/subsim_files/p...l#destrcommand

I also have the Italian mod, MARE NOSTRUM, with missions in the Meditterrean Sea. Command ships of the Italian Navy and British.
I'm not sure if Mare Nostrum is still available. I still have the executable file
on my computer as a backup should anything happen.

I have othe naval sims like Fighting Steel, Enigma Rising Tide, but Windows 7 seems to interfere in trying to play them.

With the new online game World of Warships, I keep getting this CRITICAL ERROR OCCURRED message popping up each time I try to load the game.

Another naval sims to look into is ATLANTIC FLEET/PACIFIC FLEET that is suppose to be better than World of Warships. Has historical value to it.
