How do you run SH3?

[Ducimus]

Just a general, non specific question out of curiosity.

How do you run SH3?

1.) Use one of the two supermods?

2.) Vanilla?

3.) Mod your own game and/or still use HT or RUB?


(edit: So much for posting a real poll, i always have issues with this forum software when it comes to poll.s It creates your post first, and THEN adds the poll, hitting "back" to fix something results in a post where you have to forgo the acutal poll function. )

I use one of the supermods. War Aces Campaign.

I tried the others ones and was disappointed.

War Aces is great because it has everything the other ones do as far as graphics and tools, and then adds the historical battles which you can be a part of. I just entered 1943 using this mod and enjoy every patrol.

This has been asked before (usually in the form of 'Which mods do you use'?), but I'll bite again.

I use many mods I can't remember, and I can't get to my own setup to look at them right now. They include many that now come with GW or NYGM, starting with Bordinstrument, ship skin packs, small moon mod, six-dials simfeeling mod, sound mods, harbour traffick (the latest one, which means I use GW's campaign files), randomized crush depths, map mods that make all contacts go away, several that I cherry-picked from RUB, a few more from GW and some from NYGM.

I think I actually have about 40 different mods on my game right now, but I'll have to actually see my own files to be sure.

GW 1.1a and NYGM 2.2 installs, seperate. SH3 Commander + MultiSH3 for each. SH3Gen for GW 1.1a and SH3 Weather NYGM.

To be honest my intent was to get feel for the ratio between GW/TW users, average joe player, and people who seem to continually tweak their own game. All i wanted was a three option poll, and i screwed it up cause the poll funciton on this forum is funky as hell, im acutally kinda ticked off about it because now this post is just a bomb, ill never get the yes/no answers i want now. if i could, id just delete the whole damn thread.

Sorry about that; I misunderstood. To quote Clu Gulager in Into The Night, I guess I fall into the "or what" category.

Question: What doesn SH3Gen do?

[Safe-Keeper]

SH3 Commander, SH3 Gen, and Grey Wolves.

Question: What doesn SH3Gen do?It generates you some secondary orders to follow, puts some new marks on your charts signifying ships, mine-fields, and so on, and puts a Heck-load of war news and instructions in your Captain's Log.

Just Grey Wolves and a few tweeks to whatever sub am driving.

I posted a thread at UBI about SH3 Gen, and some Screenies . :up: http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/857101043/m/3561011484

GW, what else? :up:

[danlisa]

GW is where my heart is, but trying out NYGM 2.2 aswell.

I fear I may have bitten off more than I can chew with NYGM though:yep:

GW1.1a with a few tweaks and graphics mods added for my own personal tastes.Also SH3 Commander to top it all off.

[Cpt.Thorne]

NYGM 2.2 with SH Cmndr and loving every scary moment I go through trying just to stay alive...

TGW 1.1a , nothing else....:up:

Until now it was just Uboat War Ace Campaign (plus a few mods) - best immersion into the WW2 era, to my opinion, with its lots of operations that make me feel like being part of the war.
Now I'm trying a hybrid: the campaign files of UWAC (so that I have all the war operations modeled in the game) merged into the NYGM TW 2.2 basic game, to keep the boat realism and the sinking model of ships. Of course, I also had to import into NYGM the missing boats and airplanes used by UWAC. So far (4th mission, early 1940) no CTD and everything runs fine.
To this I also added some personal changes, like reenabling the impact torpedo switch, transparent water and others.
With it, I use SH3Gen and will try to adapt SH3Cmdr for NYGM.

NYGM 2.2 with SH Cmndr and loving every scary moment I go through trying just to stay alive...

Same here. I've not even bothered with the 'stock' game.....

[Deep-Six]

Right now I am running GW1.1a only.

[fxn]

GW 1.1a and SH3 Commander.

[SteamWake]

GW 1.1a and SH3 Commander.

Ditto, with a few adjustments thanks to SHC Commander.

[Beery]

RUb with SH3 Commander plus Fubar's skin pack.

[Sawdust]

I run mostly plain SHIII. The only changes are a few minor tweaks using the game's config files and the Radio Log Lite mod
.

[Albrecht Von Hesse]

GW1.1a only, although I'm looking at possibly trying a couple of others out after I finish my current career.

[Hybris]

GW 1.1a, GW 1.1aKidsMod (nice change of pace), torpedo/Deck Gun/Flak gun power mod, and SH3Commander (Of course).
