Any suggestions for new player? I installed the GWX3 mod.

Thinking RTFM is next step or.. jump in?

Tinman764 · 03-18-12, 05:13 PM

R'ingTFM is always good!

Though, I would highly recommend SH3 Commander aswell (don't forget the GWX config file for it). Then you're good to go... sink 'em all!... (is that copyrighted?)

Yes! RTFM!

The gwx manual is excellent!

And then SINK THEM ALL!!!!

(in before Jim!)

I'd start a career, and transit at 1xTC whilst skimming through the manual for the bits on operating your boot. The best of both worlds - just keep one eye on the screen for vessels and/or land - particularly if you're in transit through the Kattegat out of Kiel.

And definately get Commander like Tinman recommends.

Welcome aboard and a happy hunting

Welcome to Subsim Ozz13.

Thanks for the advice and the welcome

Trying to hunt down this commander mod. Kind of want to start with the recommended mods so I have no regrets down the road.

Found it!

WELCOME ABOARD!

I'm glad you found it, because SH3 Commander does for your career what any supermod does for the game itself.

No, and it won't stop you from running aground in the Kiel Canal at high TC. It will do a great many things. It won't protect you from your own stupidity.

That's what we have Bernard for.
