I've been playing the SH series for years, and was hooked on subsim games when Silent Service was on the original Nintendo....but I recently got back into playing SH3 seriously and had a few questions.
First, I see alot of people showing pics of a mod that has things blasting off the decks, rendering vehicles on decks, and tossing the crew of ships into the water. Where do I get this mod, and is it 100% compatible with GWX3.0? I saw on the dlownloads page that there was a mod named "Real Damage Mod for 1.3 and New DC/Sonar Fix" but whenever I click it, I just get a bunch of garbled code and no download. Could someone point me in the right direction?
I was also looking if there was a mod that showed the known shipping lanes that could be put on the map.
Secondly, is there a a pretty much 'idiot proof' guide on how to use the map and mapping tools such as the marker, compass, etc and what to use them for. I know the general gist of what needs to be done to compute speed, range, etc but I wanted to know if there was a comprehensive guide as in, Step 1, you do this and here are the instructions on how to do it and why, Step 2, etc. I read the GWX3.0 manual and it is very vague on some of them and what to do, and when.
Thanks!
