Default Back in the saddle

Well decided to re-install SH3!

I'm running a stock campaign to get back into it.

I did used to play GW with Carotios mod, gave it a nice mix between the stock game and GWs, but the last I see it it was onl for 1.0 and I can't even find that anymore!

Mostley what I am looking for is a mod that adds more traffic in the game (more convoys/task forces/more ships in dock). Any pointers?

Ahoy Shipmate!

I'm fairly certain GWX3 Gold adds more harbor traffic. Can't rightly remember what it was like before GWX3 Gold, but I don't think the harbor is the same as in stock...

Could always check the readme or features guide from their website.

Either way, hope you find what you are looking for Kaleun!

You should give CcoM and LSH a try, too.

I never touched stock SHIII, been running with GWX 3.0 since day 1, but I've had no shortage of contacts, just broke 20k tonnage on patrol 4 with a Type IIa, but you have to make sure you're in the right area (just had a dry spell of almost 2 weeks without a hostile target, but I was in a bad part of the Nordsee. Gave up and moved back to my normal hunting grounds and put down 2 merchants in 3 days). Plenty of British task force sightings, but no tasty convoys as of yet, which is getting me down, looks like I'll be in Brest before taking on a convoy.

Ok, back into it with LSH3 n5.1, loving it. I am using the OLC GUI, but i might shut that down, it doesnt give me the range and speed of a target.

I have been putzing around in 1939 in a XXI cause I can, but i do mss having a deck gun. I have a vision on how to do a deck gun on a XXI that would look elegant, but I have no idea how to mod at that level...
