SH3 vs 5 w/ mods 2020
Hi, I'm a veteran of SH3 years ago, but never really finished it or got the later Uboats. I now own SH3 on uplay and SH5 on steam. I just reinstalled SH3 for the 1st time in ages, I joined up here for the mods.
I have a high end gaming rig, on Linux, w/ 1440p 155Hz monitor. I'm happy to say the game runs. What graphics mods are the most recommended ? And what about auto-rotate crew mod ? Anything to modernize the game would be nice, but I should be studying electronics, not videogames, so I'm not going overboard w/ mods. What other good mods are there, that have fixed stuff over the years ? Also I barely played SH5 because iirc there was no manual torpedoes, did any mods add that like in SH3? Other than there's no crew control, and you can walk around, whats the difference ? SH3 is in the Atlantic.... |

In SH5, if you are looking for manual targeting and you don't want to deal with the issues that usually come with a custom mod list, install The Wolves of Steel 2.2.20 mega mod.
Here is the download link https://www.subsim.com/radioroom//downlo...o=file&id=4861 By the way, welcome to Subsim!

Well I can't even get them running now. Uplay has broke, thinks both SH3 and 5 are not installed. I'm on Linux, used Lutris to run Uplay for SH3 a few days ago, and had the game running. Now today, uplay thinks it's gone. Also I tried installing SH5 today w/ Lutris, to open Uplay, then it wanted Steam to install it, which it did/ I got into the menu, then the game CTD when I go to start a mission. And on top of that, steam tells me the games not even installed , 3hrs later. So I'm reinstalling directly in Steam. What a headache. And when I run uplay, using Lutris, the uplay file upc.exe, is stuck at 14% CPU usage, on an i5-9600k.....that's broken tonight..why ???
