Getting Started

Ahoy Kamerad!

Game downloading...few hours to go.

Here's my plan from reading the forums:

1) Install
2) Make sure patched to 1.2
3) Do the introductory tutorial to get the 'Green Tick'
4) Sort out mods
5) Get campaigning

Do I need to consider anything else?

Cheers,
Charteris

Nope. That's pretty much it! Welcome aboard!

If you are going to add mods .. read about them so you will know what they will do to enhance your game !!

Progress to date:

I decided pretty much straight away that this could be the best non-MMORPG I ever played.

I have gone down the 'realism' route from the start and working through stoianm's brilliant video tutorials one-by-one, installing mods as I see them in operation and consider them essential (also looking at his mod list and working out where to find them).

It's going well so far; not been on a patrol yet but practicing all the nav and attack content faithfully until I get it right.

The only annoyances I can't get rid of so far are:

1) Can't move the XO TDC dialog to bottom right corner
2) Really difficult to see figures for protractor, ruler, compass when they over/underlay the ship position.

Loving it so far and major kudos to all the modders. It's a majestic co-operative masterpiece.

Cheers,
Charteris
