Nice job! Got a bit nervous on that test dive. 😬 Also the little rising suns and stars on the map are indeed airfields. If you zoom in on them you can see the airfield drawn on the map! Pretty cool feature of the mod.

Love this game! I used to play it religiously many years ago, though haven't played for years until recently. This Christmas my teenage son received a gaming pc with a pretty solid graphic card. First thing I did when he was asleep was download SH4, visit subsim, and apply this mod. I am in love and happy to be patrolling the Pacific again. Nice to be back!

I'm pretty sure the salmon had a crush depth of 500ft in mind when they built it, but they only tested to 250ft. I think they also did the same thing with the other classes of submarine built around the same period as the salmon.

Because I found out some people made campaign for British sub (at least for Mediterranean) for this game (SHIV) and I thought I saw that in some mod for SHIII, you get to play as a British submarine too. What makes modders shun IJN? I would say there is not even one percent chance they are gonna get jumped by fourteen year old American cancel gangsters so what are they afraid of?

Hey Kairos let me tell ya somethin funny about the Uss Seal, she was attacking a convoy near Palau on her way home to Freemantle aka Perth, she fired her torpedoes, but missed suddenly a Freighter named the Boston Maru either rammed the Sub or collided with it and didn’t know that it was under it, anyways during the ram or collision she sustained damage by the Seal’s periscope and it actually caused significant damage to the hull and funnily enough she sank due to the Sub’s periscope which is a bit funny if u think of it instead of using the crappy mk14 she sank by the cause of a periscope, documents later down the line confirmed the that indeed the Boston Maru was sunk by the Periscope, after that the Seal survived a four hour depth charge attack

I play FOTRSU, and you should get the fleetboat interior mod. It has the officers quarters and ward room up in the forward battery, and the S-boats now have a complete interior. The more recent version of FOTRSU also have better damage models. The glass gauges will shatter, and condesnation will build on them, as well as surfaces in the control room.

As far as I know every mod trigger maru , rising sun , TWOS has a percentage between 20-40 % crush depth for example playing with US subs ur crush depth might be 300 ft or 400 ft but with this random percentage u can go 450 , 500 ft etc. from what I understand from the guys on subsim, every uboat had diferent crush depths so was guessing game :)

Am I right or wrong? If so when is your next SH4 episode and patrols I am really lovin your series dude, I mean come on I really love when people just use the same sub for the entire war.

Hi Juan. The green circles should automatically appear for missions when you need to patrol an area. I only have the FOTRSU mod installed, so if the circles aren't appearing for you it's probably a bug with the game. I'm not sure how to fix it, except perhaps to try reinstalling the mod.

This I downloaded on last July 18th from Subsim.com as the latest. indeed it does not crash and runs quite well. I´ll keep on with the war missions at first to get use to the game; then after will start the Uboat campaign which believe could be easier for beginners on FORTSU. Thanks again

Thanks for the playthrough. I'm an old subsim guy and just getting back into SH3, SH4 and SH5. Regarding the safe diving depth of the US subs, I never understood why the listed 'test depth' was so conservative. Their subs could almost double that number if they had to. For comparison the German Uboats would regularly go below 200 meters (650+ ft).
@kairos4486
@kairos4486 3 жыл бұрын
Hey, JCTiggs! Hope you're enjoying getting back into the game. As for the test depth, I think the risks involved were probably enough to encourage the conservative approach. Submarines are expensive, and crews can't easily be rescued if something goes wrong. Of course, in wartime it's a very different story!

kairos I think I know y u didn’t choose the porpoise class submarine, it not just because that the Salmons and Sargos are u favorites but because of other reasons that have a relation to technology, it is because they are 3 Knots slower, they have 2 less torpedo tubes at the back, they are slightly smaller, and they learned lessons from the Porpoise when constructing the Salmons
