Greetings Watermammals
Just finally getting around to installing all the mods and so forth for Silent Hunter III after a year or so of playing on and off. Would have liked to pick up SH 4 and 5, but my system doesn't have the juice to run them. So I will keep on with this for now.
Cheers. |

Thinking ahead
If you have the money and are a subsim fan, I'd advise buying the SH4 & 5 even though you don't have the cpu to run them yet. You will.
Those products will vanish from store shelves and be hard to find. Personally, I hate to buy just a downloaded game. I like to have the package in my hand. There may never be another UBI sub game, so they are souvenirs of happy times. |

I am definitely a box in hand sort of guy myself. Especially when it comes to something with hours, years worth of value. I still play the old Jane's Fleet Command as well as a few others. I was pretty stoked there too when I managed to get it running on Vista. |

I'd also advise improving your rig, even playing SH3 - loading times for my old p4 2.66 with 1.5 ram and 256Mb AGP was around 9 - 13 minutes, now with dual-core 2.93 with 4 Gig ram and 1 Gig GTS250 it's down to about a minute. Finally, welcome aboard
