Thank you to all the folks at SubSim


Hi folks,

Something very nice and totally un-expected happened yesterday. The kind folks at SubSim awarded my "Super Turms/Super Pens" mod a "Best of SubSim 2012" award. For those of you that don''t know SubSim, it is "the" place to go for Submarine Simulations information and mods. I joined back in 2005 after buying Silent Hunter III and I visit there frequently. It is a very friendly, knowledgeble and helpful website and there are many there that have greatly encouraged me and supported me in producing my mods for SH3. I'm delighted and proud to be honoured in this way and would like to thank all my fellow SubSim members and Staff of SubSim, "thanks guys and gals"  and wish everyone a very Happy and Peaceful Christmas Season.

Adventures with DirectX Shaders.

Over the last few days I've been experimenting with using a program called SweetFX which some of you may be familiar with and the "SweetFX Configurator" to "tweak" some settings in some of my favourite simulations, some example pictures below". You can download the program from this link http://sweetfx.thelazy.net/ and I have so far produced presets for Steel Fury and BoB2 - Wings of Victory which you can download from my Mediafire page.

Wishing everyone a very Happy and Peaceful Christmas and New Year.
