Sorry for another Stupid "Oh No, not The Noob again!" Thread, but...

I will be a GW 1.1a User in 5 Hours, thanks to Gizzmoe's Bit Torrent link.

Anyway, I would like to ask GW users: Wich Mods on top of GW 1.1a? GW 1.1a is the Up-to-Date Version, i think. So, wich Updates/Inofficiall add-ons are Reccomended?

Any Bordinstrumente Update, or is the Most Up-To-Date one already Included?

Only ones I have currently are Grey Wolves 1.1a, Fubar's U-997 VIIC skin, Mapped Convoy Routes, WazooNom, and Fubar's new Harbour Clothes.

I'm also wondering if any other good ones are out there. So many to choose from I can't decide. :)

And that all works together? Very Nice. Then i'm going to add Fubars Harbour Textures too, it's a great mod. Mapped Convoy Routes is a Big Gameplay Plus, since you don't have to mess around with the Printed map anymore. It's having a nice Place on my wall, next to my Russian Captains Cap.

IIRC Fubars Harbour Textures are already in GW1.1a. As to the Mapped Convoy Routes I dont think they are, but it shouldnt be a problem (I hope).

As a rule of thumb, anything graphical won't hurt GW... so skins and such is all ok and shouldn't change the way in which the game works.

Boris, IIRC, there was a problem with a nice uboat skin. You remember that?

The noob,
I'm currently using the compatible Uwac 1.7 version over GW1.1a. It edits the campaign and rnd layers i believe--adds historic battles and events.

when i say compatible i mean it does not "ctd". it adds some new ships and ports--but also takes away some of the GW ports. the only noticible "visual effect" i can tell is the sunken ships are gone due to the harbor traffic changes but the offset is a lot more harbor traffic, aircraft, Task forces, and ground textures.

I enjoy the combo--(best of both mods)--but not sure how many others have tried it. And obviously if you have problems with the install--niether the creators of Uwac or GW will be able to give you fixes due to the changed files--although BBW and a few others always seem to have a solution for almost anything:D

I use only Chomu's Integrated Orders for GW, Drifter's Realism Mod v.1.01a (also known as Longer Repair Times) and a few graphic mods - Bordinstrumente 1.2, Sub Crew v.5, Officer Icon Mod etc.
