Silent Hunter 3

Graphics don't look nearly as nice as they do in mnet's screenshots. The game makes use of the next gen cards pixel shaders I guess.

It looks pretty good on my machine and I have an X800 pro in my shuttle.

[Skii]

Doesn't look half bad on mine either (Fx5900)

[Dooms]

Buying this on the way home!

you know you're doing the right thing. On my third patrol now, sitting on the sea floor awaiting the arrival of the contact... Tube doors open. Brilliant game.

You tried Shift-PGUP for the soft focus effect in my screens? You can't have AA at the same time unfortunately.

Bum! Well my order is in on play.

Patrol 5 save kept crashing after 5 mins so went home out on mission 6 atm and so far 2000ton merchant and 550 ton armmed trawler

Edit now onto 4000 merchant tonnes and 1000 Warship tons...Have lost my AA gun though And still only got as far as Scarpa Flow.

Perhaps a dumb question, is there anyway to play with the hardware AA and AF settings of this game?

I don't think theres a way of altering the settings in the game aka Fs2004, I think you are limited to your desktop settings.

Picked it up from HMV (bond street) last night but never got a chance to install it.

Same patrol and Im upto Merchant number 3 and another 1000 tons to my total...Getting very low on deck gun ammo, Im still going to complete patrol though. Then how do I come home? Back through the deep water North of Scotland or do I risk a Channel dash in the shallow water??

If you want to play safe, go North. English Channel is the quick route, as long as you stay submerged by day and recharge by night you should be ok matey. Just be bl00dy careful - you don't want to be sniffed out by a destroyer group in 30m water

I think Ill go Scotland, theres a V & M Destroyer about Scarpa Flow but I can come through at 40ms then maybe pick off a merchant outside Hull then accross the North Sea home. 5 Ships 7000 tons giving me 8 and 13000 ton total
