Don't Sleep any more
 

Hi,


I am new to SH III and since loading the Sim I have not had any sleep for at least 18 hours. It's like a drug and I am the addict. I was so facinated that I started reading the forums. (You guys post great stuff) I found out about the GW download and added it. Works great (the work done on this is well above my thought process). Question --- What other downloads can I add without a conflict with GW or that are already in GW.

Appreciate any Info.

Happy Sailing

Hi and welcome to Subsim
Yes we all know that feeling
Wait till you try GWX - you wont want to sleep for days :rotfl:

Don't burn yourself out, otherwise you will miss out on SHIV in the near future.

Have a look in the mods forum to find some extra's that will work with GW, but most of it is already in the game.

Happy hunting!:arrgh!:

Sobers water mod is really cool in my opinion. Runs fine with GW. Skins by Fubar are also nice.

Other than that....welcome to your new crack addiction...you will be strung out before long!!!!:rotfl:

welcome, mate! :up:

Welcome to the Kaleun Asylum...you'll fit right in with the rest of us who have more bags under our eyes than we can count. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
:lurk:

Welcome :yep:

We all are addicted in some way to SH3, but rest a bit as in Spring comes SH4 (can't wait for the supermods to come out). And in Sh3, wait for GWX, then you'll be able to say you haven't alept for days :D

And BTW, try NOT to get the Bernard Sindrome! :doh:

Welcome aboard, kkentopanga. Allow me to give you a quote from Robert Ludlum's book The Bourne Supremacy: "Rest is also a weapon".

Hello there, fellow addict!

I use several mods on top of the mighty GW mod. SH3 Commander (great "little" tool, and really handy if you want to ... say ... start a carreer directly in a IXD2, have the water a bit more translucent, get rid of fatigue, increase maximum tdc, etc), Ansacmicks(?) damage textures mod, fubar and hamburgers u-boat skins (and danlisas ... uhm ... alternative skin :rotfl:), sobers wave mod, etc, etc.

Modding is a long process of finding what you like, really. Its actually like going into a candy store and tasting everything, and from what I`ve seen there is no game with a better variety of mods than SH3.

Oh, get the mod enabler if you haven`t, this lets you change mods without messing up your install.

And Ill soon be joining you guys, once me get the $$$:yep:

As Stabiz says... Get the mod enabler (JGSME)

That mod enabler will save you many headaches. Heck, I use it as a modding TOOL.

Another word... many of the best mods available here are already included in GW. Make sure you compare with the readme so that you are not duplicating a process.

Welcome to Subsim matey.

Sink them all.

Yes, GW has most of it.

The only thing I still want is the lit ships, but since nobody has made a pack with an auto installer I have put that on ice. :rotfl:

(And I kinda rely on them being in GWX)

Hmmm
Didnt I make one of those ? well its JSGME compatable not an auto installer

Hello and welcome :up:

I know the feeling as I had a severe sleep deprivation myself when I started playing SH III. After I downloaded GW I forgot the meaning of sleeping:D .

As the others said get the mod enabler it's really useful and easy to use. You can add almost any graphical mod to GW without any problem. I am using Fubars' skins, 3D waves mod and Home Fleet skins. If you need any help understanding what each mod is doing check out this thread http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=78792

Good Luck and Good Hunting

:dead: I'll go to bed when I've sunk this one last ship. Ooh that was satisfying, now where is the next one?

Well your question has been asked a thousand times on this forum but that's ok because you're new as we all were once.

I'll tell you that probably most people here use the SH3 Commander mod. If you get it, you'll want to install the weather mod which will automatically be executed thru the Commander mod.

Get some sleep and I tell you where the happy hunting ground for unescorted passenger liners is!:ahoy:

Don't worry. You and everyone around you will eventually get used to the grizzled face and deep set eyes with rings around them like a racoon. You'll dive under the bed in the morning when the alarm clock goes off yelling AAAALLLLAAAARRRRMMMM. I recommend a wind up type with the ringer on top for realistic effect. You'll start to get that desire not to shave so to add to the effect of a couple months at sea. You'll eat your meals directly from the can, without heating them. You'll develope a distinct taste for salt pork, and herring. You'll let your bread sit out an hour or two before consuming it, and have to carve the greenish blue parts off that brick of cheese. I seldom use artificial lighting after dark while on the bridge, and have the temp for the house set at 52 degrees F. Lots of heavy wool sweaters, and suede jackets. While driving, you'll automatically start to scan the horizon, and the sky for targets, and enemy planes. My son now thinks his name is "number 1" even though he's 21 now. There's more but you'll find it out as you go.

*stands up and looks around* "Hello my name is WhiteWolf and I am an SH3aholic" Welcome aboard mate.

Defintely get SH3 commander also good mods that I use are:
GW
3D waves mod
Fubars Crew skins
The new remove the triangles from the head mod (forgot the name)
Fubars dark VIIC boat skin

Also get yourself a red light next to the computer to enhance your experience :smug:
