View Full Version : Smoke on the horizon?
Hi all!
I wondered if there was a good mod out there to show better/more smoke from the convois/ships?
Thanx for all the great mods by the way!

Sorry Fish but, this mod while great and should also be gotten has NOTHING to do with what OP is asking for.
It's a better smoke mod. Will come back and edit with link.
Edit: After 5 pages on the Search and alot of dead links sorry, no luck. I have it on my SH3\GWX 3.0 install and have on 3 occasions by luck was on the bridge and saw smoke thru binocs before crew. They didn't report "ship spotted" until I could make out the ship. It works as advertised.
I have it burned to cd with all SH3\GWX 3.0 Compatable mods. And will have to dig it out. I will only upload it if Neal agrees to put it in New Download section. There is a very good reason for this. :yep:

I'm going to bump this thread. I know it's buried in some members Mod Download site.
To bad it wasn't put in Neals New Download site too.

:har::rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:Get yours checked, OP wanted SH3 Mod.
1st. link SH4
2nd link SH5
3rd link SH3 but, doesn't improve smoke to be seen over horizon as OP wants only smoke from explosions after attack.
But the effort still counts. At least you tried. :up:

The Downloads section has its own search function.

I was joking when I called you "old man". How many years do I have on you? I really am old!
The only good thing about getting old: It gives a great excuse for all the things you couldn't do in the first place.

Age jokes don't bother me and i'm 42 years young :haha:
I would hate to have to go thru about 8 cd's to find that mod and find out someone in the meantime posted it. :cry: That's my kinda luck.
I hope since it's Friday you stay up late on line here.
I'm going to start another thread in SH3 mods forum and would like you to check it out and verify my findings and if it means anything.
It has to do with XXI boat. I need to take a breather.
I think you will know the answer or type it in proper form so those in the know will understand it.
See you in a while and glad your back.. :salute:

Sorry Espus you only got 3 replies. Check back tomorrow I will try to have something for you. :salute:
Thank you so much for looking FW!!
Also trying to get the MFM to work but no luck.. Might have something to do with patching as I have 3GB ram. Ive tried the patch as described but unsure wether ive done it right..

In short I have found some fantastic mods out there but they are VERY difficult to find. An idea for a seperate room or something? or am I missing something..?
I found a comprehensive list/collection by MAIK? but it is catalogged by developer name and not what the mod is for so its just another haystack to search..

I had a girlfriend once who thought she might be pregnant. Turned out she wasn't, but if she had been I would have a kid turning 40 this September. As it is my two are 31 and 29, so age jokes had better not bother you! :dead:
@ Espus: Sorry I wasn't more help. :oops:

The "Unofficial" GWX 20km Atmosphere makes the ships "sink" below the horizon leaving only their smoke above the horizon. I use it and it seems to work pretty well.
For some reason, I can't find it with a search though. Must be getting old like all you other old farts. :O:
I also believe some of OLC's mods do that as well.

The 'SH5 Water For SH3' mod has a 20km limit, and often when I hear "Ship spotted" I look and see nothing but smoke.
I was unaware that we didn't already have it here, so I uploaded it.
