View Full Version : Kaleuns! Report In to BDU immediately
I wondered now that SH4 was out there who had come back to SH3 and who plays both? Additionally what mods are you using in your current set ups?
I'm still to make the move to SH4 although may do so later on when there are some worthwhile patches available.
I use GWX 1.03 with
16km Atmosphere
Improved torpedo damage
3D waves
Improved Dials
6 dials simfeeling mod
plus
SH3Commander
SH3Gen

Alternative flotillas
Stay alerte crew fix v1c
Krillers sun
Torpedo damage final

SH3 only.
I installed SH4, installed the patch, played one patrol, uninstalled SH4. It just didn't impress me in its current state.
Maybe after 1.3 is released (will there be one?) I'll try again. But until them I'm not that keen.
So I'm currently running GWX 1.03 (and a half ;)) with the following mods...
GWX - 16km Atmosphere
GWX - Captain America's Officer Icons
GWX - Integrated Orders
GWX - Lite Harbor Traffic
GWX - No Medals on Crew
GWX - Reduced Positive Buoyancy
GWX-Tails grey_Colored WarShip
Dornier Do-24
Longer Wakes v1.0 for GWX
My Sub Emblem
Sobers 3D waves
Torpedo damage Final
plus, surprisingly, SH3Cmdr.

Im sticking with good old SH3. In Sh4 I dont like the new crew managment screen, theres no information about subs/torpedoes/equiptment and the missions never seem to think they've been competed.
In time it will probably be good but im here until then.
SH3 - GWX1.03
+
SH3 Commander
Stay Alert 8K
SH3 Weather
Depth Charge Shake
Open Hatch
Das Boot Icons
Torp Damage
I'd imagine I could play for a couple of years and still find cool stuff with the GWX mod. And by itself SH3 is such a great game. No need to switch to SH4.
And if I ever did play enough to where GWX bored me - which I doubt will happen soon - there are the other great super mods!
Give my regards to the US Navy, I'm staying in the Atlantic.
SHIII + SHIV
Tho, they are both collecting viruses on my HD atm. ;)
SH3-GWX 1.03
Eventually may try SH4 once it's properly finished -- Would buy new SH-3 DVD with SH4 water and GWX incorporated into it.

Right now SHIII with GWX.

I played Silent Hunter in the past and loved every minute of it, so in a year or two, I will probably buy SHIV.
SH3 + no mods.

Don't ask why...

For me, interest in the Atlantic was always more than the Pacific.
Will still probably get SH4, but I will wait till our modders do all thier magic on it.
Besides, I only now saw the dolphins for the first time, and there is much more for me to see and do in GWX. I have a carreer going in the Black sea, one in the Med, and one in the Atlantic.....I'm too busy for SH4 right now. I'm a happy Kaleun:yep:

SH3 1.4b, no mods.
This is for use with public multi-player games, thus ensuring simplicity, maximum compatibility and fast load-up times. I've tried RUB, UBA, GW and GWX which are all stunningly fantastic for single-player work, but my main focus is multi-player these days. Stock 1.4b gives us all we need.
SH3 GWX SH3 Commander.
Nothing else will impress me.

I went out and purchased SHIV, but I can't say that I'm very impressed with it yet. Far too buggy and it just doesn't have the atmosphere that GWX has achieved.
So, I spend most of my free time (not that much ;) ) in SH3 with GWX 1.03, launched from SH3 Commander v2.7.
Once the modders figure out SHIV better and take advantage of the amazing graphics, etc that the SHIV graphical engine offers, then I will probably switch on over. For now, I'll remain a kaleun!

I play SH3 only with GWX and SH3 Commander. The Battle of the Atlantic interests me much, much more than the Pacific war, so for the moment, I don't own SH4 or plan to own it for the forseeable future.
If someone made a ww2 subsim with playable British subs however.....:D

SHIII for me with GWX 1.03 + SH3CMDR mods installed. I bought the Collectors Edition/Deluxe Edition of SHIV and was sorely disappointed with what I'll loosely term 'the crap' that was chucked inside and bored to tears after just a single patrol in game. It just doesn't do it for me to be honest. In many ways it was a step back from what we got with SHIII, no radio room, no Captains bunk etc. Sure, it's pretty to look at but...big deal! Immersion>Eye Candy any day of the week and while SHIV may have more of the right stuff one day, SHIII+GWX has it in bucketloads right here, right now.

This poll is inheiratnly biased. If one played SH4, they are not a "kaleun", nor do they report to BDU. :88) So allow me to introduce myself as the one and only (at the time of this posting, "Sh4 only" vote. My primarly reason for that, is im just waaayyyyyyyy.. waaayyy..waaayyyy burnt out on Sh3. So for a person in my case, the choice of which game, isnt much of a choice, and theres only one place to go, Silent Hunter 4.
Speaking of which, without going into too many details, it has far far more potential then Sh3. It is a diamond in the rough, and it will take it awhile to get it to where Sh3 is now.. at its zenith. It took Sh3 roughly 2 (or is that 3?) years to get to its current state. So i have no illusions about Sh4. As to which mod i use? HA! Err.. well.. my own :roll: (link in sig as always). Alot has been accomplished to improve SH4, and it is undeniably much better now, and its getting "there", but theres still much to be done.
Far to much to see and do in the atlantic with GWX to bother with SHIV,and by the sounds of it I'm not missing much either;)
Wrong see Ducimus' post below...:arrgh!: I got SHIV and tried it, my machine can't run it it was painful in fact but I too think it has some stuff which will surpass SH3, crew managment and (once the glitches are out) damage ... among others. Still am enjoying SH3 with GWX for now.
SH3, GWX1.03 and now SH3 Commander
This has acculmulated into THE BEST SUBSIM EVER.
I have been playing for about 2-3 weeks and I've finally gotten the hang of crew management and that happens to be one of the most rewarding aspects of the game. GWX has come into my life and has turned this sim into the most realistic subsim, and now that I'm going to start using SH3 Commander, I can only imagine where this will lead me.
Alas, SH4 is on my shelf. I havent given up hope!
I have begun to remember my crew names, so that when I go to move their watches around I know where this person goes and what slot he goes in. Truly amazing for a subsim. When I think I've seen it all, there is something new right infront of me. Watching the fireworks of a DD going up is something to bring about a "WOW!" I can only imagine what an ammo ship does.
EDIT: wait! Maddox1C Battle of Britian:Storm of War is right around the corner!

For me SHIV has the potential to be an absolute corker of a subsim, however the problems with it at the moment mean that I'm sticking with SHIII. Mainly because I discovered the wonder which in GWX about a month or two ago and haven't stopped playing! If something like GWX was created for SHIV...well...we can only dream!
One thing I loved about SHIV was the whole *whistle* "change the watch" thing, the crew management is better in some ways than SHIII because there's less micromanagement.
SH III +GWX I might consider the thought of SH IV wondering about crossing my mind, but it probably wouldn't run on my machine if I could be an RN sub then I would get a new computer for it even if it means I would starve:-?

I'm kind of late into the SH3 craze just getting it a couple months ago so that's the only one I play, not sure if my machine could handle SH4 anyway. The pacific theatre doesn't interest me all that much anyway.
I'm playing both, although I lean heavily to SH3 at the moment. This is my first GWX career (late to the party, I know) and it's just more fun than SH4 is right now. Not to mention it's fully functional and polished to a mirror finish, which is definately a plus.

I play both, but personally prefer SH3, mainly because I prefer U-Boats, SH4 is buggy, but it potentially has a lot more going for it than SH3, so I'm playing an SH4 campaign at a slow rate and watching developments with interest.

I went back to sh3 for variety from Elder scrolls 3: morrowind since my curent computer wont run Oblivion, surprisingly I do manage to run SH3 with GWX, works like a charm
I used to play vanilla, with some mods for nomographs and whatnot, and sh3 commander (of course) then I reinstalled, had a look here for the latest patches and such, found GWX...
now I'm totally hooked again :D.....stupid GWX, giving me stress, adrenaline flowing, very bad....I'm loosing sleep here....:D
ah well, it's a great game and a great mod :up:

rascal101
05-11-07, 06:54 PM
OK, I have a problem, I think sh3 is better game when modded to GWX, plus some others like open hatch, but I think graphics in SH4 are way better.
I think there is a new GWX4 on the way, can some one confirm this? I'm kind of waiting for this as I'm hoping to reinstall SH3 and the new GWX so I dont have to go searching far and wide for all the mods I used to have in SH3, some of the older mod links dont seem to work. I've been away for so long I no longer know what goes with what.
I was hoping to get some new life into sh3 with Iambecomelife's merchant pack, but cant work out if its released or still under construction, kind of hoping it will be included in GWX4.
In a nut shell I have been away for a while, and want to get back into SH3, but cant work out where to go to get all the best mods, can any one offer any advise.
SHIII only at the moment, the same thing as Jaesen, installed, applied the patch, uninstalled! If SHIV is fixed, certainly would require a few patches, I may give it another go.:yep: But the Atlantic & u-boats are definitely my favorite.:up:

Several sound mods cherry picked and amalgomated into one for me these include:
Tikigods Telegraph mod
Sound for GWX from poul
command combat vers 1
a few others i have picked up but cant remember where.
On my test setup I have created an alternative install to test some of the latest SH3 to SH4 mods but have not run its yet.
Soon I will have a go at SH4 but probably not fo quite a while.
All of these mods help to immerse me in the game!

AMD Athlon 64 X2 2.6Ghz duel core 5000 cpu
4gb Balistix RAM
1gb Nvidia superclocked 7950 GX2 graphics card

I'm trying to like SHIV -- there are times when I'd rather be Mush Morton than Otto Kretschmer -- but it seems like a step backward from even stock SH3, let alone SH3+GWX. What gives? I've been shivved!

SH3/GWX: plenty for me. The modding community has elevated and enhanced an already decent game - and now we are on the verge of a whole new experience with the new GWX. Also more interested in the Battle of the Atlantic (my uncle fought in it on a patrol frigate). Thank you GWX team and modders!

SH3 1.4b + no mods
Medieval Total War II
Nothing else
Haven't heard anything good about SHIV, except that it looks better than SHIII. Besides, I'd much rather be a u-boat commander than a submarine one.

SH3 1.4b, SH3 commander, GWX 1.3, Sh3 gen 0.07, SH3Weather, JSGM

Having been playing SH3 (set-up in signature below) for just over a week now I'm still AMAZED at all the mods and expansions that are available. It seems endless, and so , therefore, does the playability and lifespan of the game. It's the most engrossing game I've come across, having been playing all kinds of games since the late eighties.
So I'm with just SH3 now and I can't see me wanting SH4 for quite some time to come (plus the fact my current computer would self destruct if I tried SH4 on it! It only just handles SH3, 20 -30 FPS). Therefore I hope this great forum continues to be as popular as it is and the community as a whole stays as strong.

I'm not so sure Racerboy's mods are compatable with GWX 2.0 right now because of the work we've done :hmm:

SH3 1.4b with SH3 commander 2.7 and GWX 2.0(best mod ever),
84% realism, currently commanding U-36 on patrol in grid BE61.
Havent touched SH4 yet, far too interested in the battle of the atlantic and U-boats.

Sh3/gwx. period.
There is nothing able to beat the atlantic, and after starting sh4 and seeing cardboard crew spinning around, i silently deleted it. what a bummer.
Nothing, oh nothing compares to you!

I donīt like the pacific warfare, the american subs and i donīt like sh4, i played it for a month and thatīs all, it could have better graphics than sh3 but the gameplay is much much much better in sh3, the u-boats rules the seas. And sh4 is a bit more like an arcade game, sh3 is a really complex subsim.

Had been trying to deal with both for months, pros & cons, ect... No matter what, I could not get into SH4, like I do SH3 . Hey, maybe it's just me? Full time atlantic from now on!
I use everything what you see below, plus I'm waiting for Longer Repairing Time (LRT) and Depth Charge Shake (DCS) for GWX2.0. I love this game, GWX push new, better life to old SH3. Thanx guys.

I really enjoy SH4 and have restarted a career. However, there is something that keeps me coming back to SH3.
I hope SH3 never goes away.
Much thanks to the modders :up:

GWX - Alternate load screen - Full Circle

I only play SH3 (with GWX, of course!).
After reading many reviews and seeing numerous screenshots, I drew the conclusion that SH4 is merely a re-tread of SH3 with some graphical tweaks.

Still playing SH3, have GWX 1.03, haven't download 2.0 cuz I'm still waiting for 2.1.
I don't have SH4, and not planning on getting it.

Just recently came back to SH3 (GWX2) and even more recently configuring SH4 and mods. I play it all from AOD throught SH4. Gave up on SC/DW due to the moronic scenarios which never work right.

In a few months this poll will be a year old, I think folks have had their say with regards to it's original intent.
