For the first time I can play Silent hunter III without triangles missing in the middle of the screen; the mod is briliant new life to the game. I think I am being plagued by sabateurs at the moment the boat wouldn't move even with a full team in the engine room. Please carry on modding.

Yup GW is a pretty good improvement over the stock game. So are some of the other mods.

But dont come whining you cant get as much renown as you used to :p

(grumbling) Three premature detonations in one patrol. Funny thing in a two cases the DD's dident even notice and just continued to steam on... out of my reach

Then to make things even more fun I had a doink shot into a flower corvet (hit but no detonation)

. The lil guy harrased me for about 15 minutes till I managed a magnetic detonation (head on shot) and ruining his day.

So... 5 torpedoes later I have one flower corvette to claim

p....premature detonations.........?

Does the GW mod disables the ability to play with none realism, or can you still play like a noob

?

In a bit of overzealous daring, I just took on Gibraltar.

Killed all four of the warships at anchor, then got harassed for about 2.5 hours realtime by 4 destroyers, which simply wouldn't give up.

Lost my attack periscope, deck gun and was down to about 75% hull when I tried a desperation gamble.

I headed for a neutral large cargo, hoping to park inbetween it and the docks to get a shot off as a destroyer rounded it to start an attack run.

As I approached the docks, I saved and had a pretty stupid idea, I backed into their own docks forward tubes out. (Periscope depth) The idea was that they wouldn't be able to run on me and drop charges, and I would be able to shoot at them for brief windows of opportunity.

Using the observation scope and a hell of a lot of luck, I killed a destroyer with a torpedo and nailed another but didn't sink it. :rotfl:

This mod is great.
