Hey folks...........

I stopped plating SH3 about the time Beery published his final solo version of RUB.

That's quite some time ago.........

I'm thinking of getting the Silent Hunter "Gold" edition with SH3 & 4 bundled.

I've been playing SHIV for some time and I'm looking to jump back into the ATO............

Should I just waint until GWX is released for IV?

How intense is GWX???

Thanks Kaleun's!!!!!

GWX 2.1 is the peak of the SH3 experience in my opinion.

it could be some time before we see a GWX release for SHIV so - if i were you i would enjoy SH3 - GWX 2.1 now.

also i highly recommed the OLC GUI mod, and the life boats and debris mod.

My arm has been twisted........... :)

As I understand it GWX is a megamod with many updates and fine tunings......What types of mods would not be good to install over GWX?

Almost every SH3 mod out there is built around GWX. that said, not everything is compatible. ill put up a list of essentials here in a minute.

GWX enhanced damage effects

other mods to get are

before you install any of this... try a couple of stock missions or just sail around a bit and get a feel for the stock game.

when you feel like you have the stock game pretty well pegged, load up those mods... it will blow you away

SH4 Gold does NOT have SH3 on it. It's SH4 and SH4 U-Boat Missions bundled.

Or Fu's.:rotfl:

Fubar did a lot of great skins, and so did FooFighter. There are a great many skins floating around that are, well...great.

It would be a sad world without GWX to look
forward to.
