Why is the guy fishing? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
A little R&R fer the crew is always a good thing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Aye, nothing like a fresh catch for a change. Though I prefer steak over fish lol, I dont see any cows in that screenshot.

That'd be cause I already ate the cow <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> Nice RLB, great to make the 100K club. Still trying to make 150K and have not succeded yet, what realism setting do you play at ? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
65%

Can't stand manual targeting
and the crew gets paid, so let them do their jobs.

(Like identifying the targets.)
 
Aye mate, some things need to be left for the crew to do, a Cap'n didn't do eveything on a sub, so to me realism settings are not very realistic, especialy fatigue, since when did a Cap'n tell a seamen, hey you, its time to hit the sack <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" /> don't think so <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
What mods do you recommend, Skull? I donwloaded this game in August, but I couldn't seem to get into it... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Yes, <a href="http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/857101043/m/9741036534" target="_blank">GW</a> is fun

You want the 6 parts
the patch
and the overlay fix
(GW comes with lots of other great mods already)
(Like FUBARS sub skins and the recognition manual)

but before you get too far, think about some interesting accessory mods:

<a href="http://mpgweb.de/downloads/index.php?act=view&id=712" target="_blank">Hi Rez</a>

The <a href="http://mpgweb.de/downloads/index.php?act=view&id=59" target="_blank">mod manager</a>



Also consider <a href="http://mpgweb.de/downloads/index.php?act=category&id=1" target="_blank">http://mpgweb.de/downloads/index.php?act=category&id=1</a> for other great mods, but you won't need much!!

NYGM_Persicope_Mod_v1.2 is an interesting addition as it lowers your periscope while it is lowered (takes less depth charge damage)

The 1.4b patch is a MUST (but it calls itself 1.3 while installing so ignore that part)

Consider:
WarAceCampaign1.92 - incompatible with Grey Wolves, but a very interesting option mod.

P.S. don't forget to Google for the 1.4b NO-DVD bit and to remove StarFart!
 
Don't have HD space for that atm <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> , but I'll download it when I have a new HD - used up that 400 gigs pretty fast, hehe <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
lots O' choices Rico, either way you will get more convoys, SH3 Generator is also a good choice cause it gives you intelligence reports on possible juicy targets and marks said targets on your world map, given yer limited to fuel if you have that setting it comes in handy. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Well, I'm playing on very easy at the moment to get familiar with the game... By the way, is there a bug with reloading? I'm stuck in Dover port with a few sweet ships looking for me, plus depth charges dropping every minute, so they're bound to find me if I don't escape quickly, but I'm determined to take a few to hell with me if it comes to that! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> But I'd prefer if the torpedoes would reload, allow me to fire a few and get the hell away... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
do you have auto reload on, make sure ye have enuff crew in the torpedo room to reload, External reserve tubes mounted on the deck of sub can only be reloded only if yer on the surface, make sure silent running is off so crew can reload torps <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Oh, silent running <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> You just saved my day, Skull, now I'll get back to sinking them <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
Good Hunt'n Rico <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> Sink em all <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Thanks <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Got out of Dover, went to Portsmouth - 2 Destroyers, 1 medium Tanker and 1 medium Cargo... but i miscalculated something and ended up crashing into the side of the docks with my bow... have to realod from the Dover save. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Nevermind - I might actually bump up the difficulty since playing it like this is a dream...
 
last night in Grey Wolves (uper mod to SH3)

I snuck into Scapa Flow

Sunk 3 parked DD
1 small tanker
1 medium tanker
1 troop carrier
1 small freighter (for the insult value, it was docked)
1 Fiji Cruiser
1 Auxilery Cruiser

then sailed almost due west out of the bay.

And the English didn't even spot me loading my auxilery torpedoes in their bay after I sunk the 2 Destroyers.
(In sight of their wreckage)

And the local search ships never sighted me.

Too bad, no real capital ships only the Fiji.
65% difficulty in GW
and then went hunting with my 4 remaining torpedoes and deck gun.

ended up with something like 68k tonnes.
