What's the first thing you'll do when you get your hands on GWX?

[Safe-Keeper]

;) (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=353059&postcount=592)<-Clickie.

So, you've uninstalled and reinstalled Silent Hunter III. You've patched it to 1,4b. You've downloaded Grey Wolves Expansion and printed the manual, which now sits on your desk. It's Friday night, and you've got a weekend alone with GWX.

What's the first thing you do?

Personally, I think I'll start several new careers, one in Trondheim, one in Asia. Perhaps I'll have one career be late-war and one be as early-war as possible.

Then, of course, I'll integrate what I have of NorOps and check out what GWX implies in Norway and how much of it, if any, needs to be altered. It's going to be good:up:.

What about you?

[_Seth_]

Ohhhh...At first, i kill a goat. Then i place it upon my subsim-alter. Then i start to chant...."oooooooooo-oooooooooo-ooooooooo-Neal Stevens" "oooooooooooo-ooooooooo-oooooooooooo-Subsim" "oooooooooooo-ooooooooo-ooooooooo-GWX"
Then i clap my hands three times, while im doing the "spiritual subsim-dance".

Then i play GWX the whole weekend without sleep.:up:

[THE_MASK]

Crack open a beer and say CRIKEY.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Nice one Seth!

Of course the first thing I'll do is take a walk around the block, have a nice long relaxing bath, read the papers, have a cuppa etc....
NOT!

[Samwolf]

Start a career and check out what I need to mod.;)

It would seem I lack the ability to get through to people:-?.

What's the first thing you'll do in TGW?

God, how some people "misunderstand" me sometimes;).

[Samwolf]

Start a career and check out what I need to mod.;)

:nope: :nope: :nope:

LOL! No offense meant.

I don't do anything major. I take out the renown for upgrades, have my own extended radiolog, set crash dive depths for all my subs to 20 or 30 meters. I also change the ammo loadouts, remove the tails from the navmap and have a few textures I use if I feel they're better than what comes with the mod. I also correct some spelling errors I found that have been carried over from the stock game.

Hopefully the spelling errors are gone
Have picked up more than a few
Good luck with the ammo loadout :rotfl:

Good on the spelling errors, I was getting tired of having to correct them for every mod I've played.:up:

I have a simple ammo loadout. 8.8cm = 220 HE & 10.5cm=150 HE. All AA ammo I leave alone.

[bigboywooly]

No problem there then
Well hopefully have found all spelling errors
No doubt you will find one :damn:

[Samwolf]

If you guys went through all the trouble of looking for spelling errors, my bet is that you'll have them all fixed.

Of course, if you spell "amor" as "armour" or "color" as "colour", that'll be a spelling error to me.;)

[Safe-Keeper]

You should have me as your proof-reader then. ;)

[Pants]

First thing i'm going to do is.......Oh wait, i already have it, NER NER "Blows Raspberry" :rotfl:

[Albrecht Von Hesse]

First thing I'm going to do?

Hard to say, really, without having it in my hands first. Most likely I'll start off the way I always have, with a new career in '39, and just take my time to explore and experiment with it.

Well, I'm doing the spell check of the messages file, so, the question is...which way will I go???:rotfl:

[FIREWALL]

I understand the manuel is pretty big. So I guess the first thing to do
is go to Office Depot and get a ream of paper and a 5 gal ink cartridge.
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Oh and as sober said " And crack open a cold one and have fun".:up:

[danlisa]

RTFM, eh JS:D

Anyword on if we will be able to DL the manual while we're waiting for the rest of the files to DL?

Once that's done, fire it up and see what changes have been made since the Beta release. As I'm sure we didn't see everything.

[danlisa]

How many sheets in a ream, 300?:hmm: You might just be covered.:rotfl:

Iam still on my first patrol that have lasted for 562 days now.
Thos Bernards havent figured out how to start the engines so we are still in the pen house. :D

[HunterICX]

The First thing I do?

well I already did the Chicken dance while installing the GWX BETA

I think I,m going to dance the MACARENA NUDE!!!when installing the GWX FINAL

(Yes, I,m a Sick *******, I know)

[Kpt. Lehmann]

LOL...

Just remember... (coff ahem coff coff) ... it was a bloody rude yank that started GW/GWX to begin with. (coffcoffcoff) :stare: :stare: :lol:

The first thing I will do (before running for the hills while screaming "READ THE MANUAL!!!")... is take a deep breath and let out a good old Texas YEEEHAAWWW war-hoop...

I will reserve running naked through the streets until I see whether or not someone wants to shoot me or not.:ping:

Pssst!!! ....about two weeks until release now. (Yes I am serious.)

[bigboywooly]

TFFT
My computer is in serious need of a clean up
:rotfl: :rotfl:

[_Seth_]

Pssst!!! ....about two weeks until release now. (Yes I am serious.)

EXCELLENT!!!:up:!!!!!!!!:up:!!!!!!!!!!:up:!!!!!!!! !!!!:sunny:!!!!!!!! Is it possible to make some sort of "Time to GWX's release" countdown? A timer here on subsim or something? :hmm:

[Kpt. Lehmann]

Same here mate! I foresee MAJOR MASS DELETING on the horizon LOL.:ping:

Not with exactitude... The exact release date/time is dependant on our ability to produce / upload to at least three solid primary mirrors. We will not release until we have at least three.

[Konovalov]

Play SHIII with GWX non-stop for days until I am taken to hospital suffering exhaustion and put on a saline drip. :arrgh!:

If GWX comes out in approx two weeks then this is perfect. My wife is off for a holiday for four days with her girlfirends. So that means I can immerse myself in nothing but SHIII GWX over the Chrissy holidays. :rock: :rock:

[Kpt. Lehmann]

...So that means I can immerse myself in nothing but SHIII GWX over the Chrissy holidays. :rock: :rock:

Well, that is certainly our intent.:sunny:

[mr chris]

Well im on leave from the 15th of Dec to the 8th of Jan so i will be playing the ass off it. :arrgh!: :arrgh!:
OH wait a minute i have been doing that for the last three weeks:rotfl: :rotfl:
And it rocks my world:up: :rock: :rock:
Top work guys:up: :up:
Thanks for the privlage Kpt:up: :rock:

[fredbass]

Well I"m gonna make sure to read the "do's and don'ts" in the manual/documentation prior to installation, as well as all the other new stuff b4 I begin to play, so I know where I want to start first.

Though I have a pretty good idea exactly where I want to go during my first voyage :know: :up: , but I can't say where, sorry. :|\\

[_Seth_]

I understand, mate! The most important issue is to get it done & deliver the goods:up:
I have said it before, and i say it again..You guys do a TERRIFIC job! :yep::up:

[Melonfish]

as soon as i get my hands on GWX i'll burn it to disk and cuddle it to sleep praying for a lite version.

Will be a short cuddle then as the lite should come with the main release

[melnibonian]

I will be playing till I drop :D :D :D :D

Basically the same thing I'm doing now :rotfl: :rotfl:

Thank you very much for the trust Kpt and for giving us the chance to test drive GWX :up: :up: :up:

INSTALL IT!! :rotfl:

Hm...ow wait, it's Dowly, no suprise there....:roll:

But he's got a point...:up:

[Sailor Steve]

It will probably be a couple more months before I can install and play it, but I'll likely do what I've always done: start a career out of each available flotilla and begin playing through the war, using SH3 Commander to limit everything to historical lengths.

[mr chris]

You will be playing for years then Steve as the are so many flotillas in GWX:up:

[Sailor Steve]

Cool! That means I can play all my SHIII and SH4 careers side-by-side, plus go back to Destroyer Command and a few flight sims as well. Too bad I don't like infantry/tank games.

[Wulfmann]

While I have no doubt the vast majority of GWX will be close to perfect there will always be a few things some of us will see a little different.
And, I have (evil dark sided) ships that will not be available to GWX so will likely change a few in the RND.mis file as well as increase the convoy escorts for later war to my 12-20 I found gives me the feeling I get from reading the U-Boat accounts from those that were in them..
I am curious what the team decided on sensors so will run them as is and see how that goes.
No matter how good it is some us want to tinker even for the sake of tinkering.
I certainly look forward to GWX and whatever edits I do they will likely be tiny over all given the advance descriptions given here.
The fact some of us may want a little different seasoning does not mean we don’t appreciate the nice mod that will certainly make SH3 better than it ever has been.

I'll crawl back under my rock now!:rotfl:

Wulfmann

[_Seth_]

I agree with wulfmann:up:. Another point: It sounds like its political correct to like GW, GWX and NYGM.
Dont misunderstand me; i use GW and NYGM myself; they are excellent! But we must not disrespect those who dont use or like these mods. People are different, and we have to respect that. :yep:

[Dimitrius07]

First thing when i finish to reinstall the game and etc.... I will meet my crew in a bar and we will open a bottle of "shampaine" for a start :88) :D and its goin to be a long night :yep: http://nd4spd.ws/forum/html/emoticons/eyecrazy.gif http://nd4spd.ws/forum/html/emoticons/friday.gifhttp://nd4spd.ws/forum/html/emoticons/discosmileys.gif:dead:

[P_Funk]

I'm gonna try and find a career in which I can do something that I didn't do in the beta phase. There's so damned much new!

[Mast]

Play the damn mod! For hours on end. Check out the radar mast and radio direction finder and all the other unknowns. :lol:

Mast

[SimNut]

As soon as I get it I'll start the install and then go take down the Christmas lights. I always take them down the third week of January.

[stabiz]

:rotfl:

[TarJak]

Start a career on one of the "new" flotillas and see that eye candy is in port before puting out to the Atlantic sea to see what I can sink.

Two weeks to go? Oh yeah!

[JU_88]

Me? first thing im gonna do is check out the museum :know:

[AVGWarhawk]

The first thing I will do is obviously download and install the mod...after cleaning up all the old files off the hard drive, then....

I go upstairs and give the wife the old hard drive so she will leave me alone for a few days:D then....

Hand my two kids $50.00 each to buy them off and leave me alone for a few days...

Call the boss and tell him I have an eye problem and do not see myself coming in for a few days, then....

Close the blinds, turn off the lights, throw the phone out the window for the dog to chew or uninate on whichever comes first, then....

Brew a large pot of coffee, chug it down and proceed to make another pot, this time just the coffee grounds and no water, chug that down, then...

Proceed with a new career in 1939. Play until my eyes bleed and I'm face down on the keyboard with siliva dripping from my lips during my unconcious state of bliss from none stop playing, then.....

Surface to make sure I still have a family, then....

Rinse and repeat!:rock:

[stabiz]

Me? first thing im gonna do is check out the museum :know:

Hope you are sitting down at the time.


@AVGWarhawk: :rotfl:

[WilhelmSchulz.]

After I install it I will make shure my cat aint next to my feet(his fav spot) as so he dosent get hurt by flying socks, make shure nothing can stab my jaw on its way down, check the museum. Start a Campaign(Hope it will be SH3 Comander compatible) and play till I pass out from fatuige. :yep: :up: :rotfl:
