In a violent incident I was seriously injured and as a result I am now wheelchair bound, paralysed from the waist down, hence my introduction into Silent Service and of course SH3,4 and 5. I am also very active in Flight Simming. I 'love' sport and represented my country in Rugby (Junior All Black). My other interests are chess, which I play online and will always be keen on photography even though I cannot take part anymore. Last but not least I must pay my respects to Kylania who has helped me to upgrade to the new mods in SH5 as I am only at kindergarten level as far as computers are concerned and he has been enormous in keeping my computer up to date. It is a pleasure to be part of this great forum. And many thanks too, to the remarkable people who have saved this game, from an early grave, with their mods.

Hello all, diving into Silent Hunter 5! I heard this title was a disaster but now much better after watching Jon2Jeremey's lets play. So what are the recommended Mod's everyone's using?

Welcome to the forums red! There's a recent thread here in this forum called Essential Mods and there's quite a few threads in the SH5 ModWorkshop you should check out.

Hello everyone. Veteran SH3 here...

Last week i checked subsim sh5: no DRM
3,33 seconds later I checked my local store: Sh5: 4,90 euros (some 6,50 $)
Installed
Cryed
Dived subsim
Installed some 5 mods
Cryed
Installed some 10 mods
Cryed
Installed some 20 mods
.
.
.
2 days later I sunk my first tanker off the british coast, and loved it. I am still working to understand the mod install order, I continually mess up things, but I think SH5 is totally playable.

I still have SH3 installed, not playing it anymore (it will be difficult once i have stepped into SH5... still I check regularly for the latest innovagion regarding the .exe file).

Anyhow... I m just leaving the office to mess around with my SH5 mods (I have to reinstall now), can't wait!

Hi everyone, I have only recently got SH5 but I am a veteran of the series, still playing SH3 & 4. I love it! Subsims are the best. I have been using full difficulty now for a year or two having learned advanced targeting via these very forums and YouTube. Also got some great mods for all 3 SH sims, also from here. Modders rock!!
