Been Away Would Gladly Appreciate Any Help

[Col.Jimbo]

Hi all!

I've been away for a while to say the least but have recently built a new rig and am in the process of re-installing this great game but am totally lost as far as what mods would be the best to install. Much has changed and I don't know where to begin. Would anyone be willing to tell me what mods would be best as well as radio stations and the like. I know there must be gobbs but if you could lead me with some must haves I would be indebted forever to you all.

Thanks and happy hunting

Right now the mod situation is "wait and see". Most major ones are undergoing adaptation to 1.4 at the moment - typical thing to happen two days after a patch release!

Thank you CCIP. I will await further developments.

Happy hunting

Some mods seem to be operational but not proven - such as ROW which is the #1 visual mod you must try.

Dear Sir:

Just install the new 1.4 patch that came out this past Tuesday, 11/27/2007. Game is awesome without the mods. From there (12/2007) or so - date is a wild guess, ask again, and ALL these NICE folks at subsim.com will bend over backwards to help you again and again. - twice I am sure - And to help you with your future questions.

Welcome back to SubSim. You have ONE thing to do:
Enjoy the game and enjoy these wonderful forums. They are ALL great - the game [SH4] with the 1.4 patch and these forums is like dieing and going to heaven after you die in the game. Both, the game and the subsim forums are a nice place to visit after your sub sinks and you go to heaven.

Have fun doing both - playing the game, and reading the forums.

ENJOY! the game and all of subsims forums.

I personally use (and will continue once 1.4 compatible)

Trigger Maru - A good compilation, contains many things to improve your game.

ROW - You'll understand when you install it properly. STUNNING!

Captain Cox CBS News mod (should work with 1.4) - It gives my crew something to listen to.

Thanks all and look forward to talking to you guys again soon
