If I had a nickel for every time I have randomly shot a torpedo out into the Pacific, I could probably buy a venti Starbucks cafe mocha.

The only two modifications I’ve made to the sim configuration files correct egregious errors in the mast heights in the onboard recognition manual and changes the default torpedo fire key from just Enter to control-Enter. There are an immense selection of patches and modifications available for Silent Hunter 4 (very few are actually compatible with each other!), including a selection of well-designed supermods that greatly improve the submarine hunter’s experience, but, in this AAR, I’m playing a mostly vanilla Silent Hunter patched to version 1.4.

Without their thankless (and free!) service, the submarine simulation community would be in dire shape indeed.

They continue to keep their news items freshly stocked and the forums and file download areas are chock-full of incredibly useful information and data that you just can’t find anywhere else. If you’ve ever been interested in submarine simulation, head over to their site and check them out. Thankfully, the great community at did and continue to do a fantastic job of keeping a collection of patches, modifications, tutorials, and other support items to keep the submarine simulation experience accessible to anybody who can read through a forum. This crank and dump approach burned me as well as other sub simmers, and I haven’t even glanced towards Silent Hunter 5 because the memory of the pain is so strong. Unfortunately, Silent Hunter 4 took some serious depth charging when Ubisoft released and then abandoned it with bugs that seriously impact gameplay.

Renown can be used to upgrade to a new type of U-boat, purchase upgraded conning towers, radios, or guns, or to enlist more experienced sailors and officers. You will not see the renown you've earned in your current patrol until you've returned to base. It is not required of you to go there or stay there. It is just a place to earn points if you visit it. You do not lose renown for skipping your patrol grid square. As with sinking friendly ships, sinking neutrals can lead to the end of your career in the Kriegsmarine. Armed neutral ships will also begin firing on you. Neutral ships will cost you the same renown amount that you would earn for sinking the equivalent enemy ship. Keep it up and SH3 will toss you out of the Kriegsmarine. Sinking a friendly ship will penalize your renown by a factor of ten times such a ship's renown value. You do not have to travel the last mile and dock in the U-boat pen. When you're within 30 kilometers of your base and hit the ESCAPE key, you will then be offered the option to 'Dock at: base'.
