SH5 vs SH3+mobs

What mods are they? How do I get them in my SH3?

Let's hear what the United Nations has to say about SH5

to be honest... moded sh3 looks better...

I don't think such comparisons are fair. The devs are constrained by schedule, cost, and governed by system specifications, modders are not. I'm sure that if SH5 shipped with the modded SH3 images (as superior as they are), many less players would be able to enjoy them thanks to less than adequate computer specifications.

Besides, it's only a matter of time before such accuracy finds its way into SH5 - what you see there in SH3 is certainly not only doable in SH3.

Modded SH3 definitely looks much better, which is not unexpected really; modders take their time and produce quality work, developers run to a tight schedule and have to make do.

I still can't tell if the SH5 interior is too big, but it does feel bigger.
Especially in some shots:

I agree. It seems somewhat off. :hmmm:

Definitely when modders already have something to build off of, when developers don't. Such comparisons are definitely not fair.

Satrange... Sh3 with an engine room, never seen this.

Your right, I just realized that myself... now its suspicious.

SH5 +MODs Must win SH3+mobs :DL

The shots look great with the mod. But it lacks one thing that sh-5 does have. Crew.

I dunno why; it's been on display in one form or another since January 18: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=160385

What do you mean base off of? Flakmonkey modelled the diesel room and other new compartments from scratch AFAIK, there was nothing in SH3 to base these on. A graphical comparison is completely fair. He's done a magnificent job.

In fact they both look great to me. I've been using the beta mod in SH3 for a while, walking around more in my boat, interacting as much as possible w/ crew, riding the storm, crash dives, deep dives and depth charge attacks with them. It's pretty awesome as it is. That's why just thinking what SH5 will bring is getting me so excited. It doesn't matter if there is 28 crewmen, SH3 has even less and it doesn't bother. The whole boat is modelled and now walking around is built in the game, it's not done using the freecam. I hope more interesting interactivity options are present, like clicking gauges, operating levers and opening drawers, cupboards, to check out maps, books, etc. Adding to what the devs have done, w/ the strong moddability of all these aspects, the SH5 interior and living there will be a satisfying experience for sure.. :arrgh!:

this is true, but not the whole story. An important factor, i believe, is the love for realism and accuracy. This is the work of an artist who is clearly a sim fan who wants to get the details correct. There is a crucial difference between a sim gamer and an action gamer. The great modders of sh3 (the GWX team, WAC, DD, flakmonkey,raptor and all the others) are striving toward greater realism and an experience which is accurate to the life and times of a uboat crew. Many of the great mods of sh3 are not even graphic but data that's been painstakingly reworked to reflect the historical aspects of the war, the correct workings of the uboat, accurate sounds, instruments, etc, etc. Indeed this takes time, which devs may not have the luxury of, but it also takes a desire and passion for the subject at hand.

i wish the best for SH5 and ubi (after all they have given us the best series in SH) I only hope that it plays more like a uboat simulator and less like an arcade game (cause i dont know if that can be modded away)

Actually Flakmonkey said he used the SH5 diesel room to work on.

Either way, Flakmonkey's stuff defininitely looks better than SH5's in most repects. The greatness is in the extra detail, the things lying around, better textures etc.
The SH5 u-boat looks more impersonal and more basic.

This also makes the SH5 boat seem far more spacious. I could almost think that the SH5 interior is slightly larger in scale, which may be right, but the dramatic difference is cause by the larger FOV in SH5 (notice the angled vertical lines).

Awesome work by Flakmonkey, and I hope that his work can somehow be integrated into SH5! :rock:

The SH3 mod actually gets very good FPS:

The first thing I noticed, was the lighting.
Sh3 has that dim, cave like atmosphere that I think a sub should have. It gives that stale air, damp, smelly feeling.
Sh5 is kind of bright and clean. Also it looks to be they might have a U-boat that is about 3 feet to wide compared to the SH3.
Sh3 looks a lot better.


Also on a side note, will that mod beable to be used with sh4, I hope so. If you guys say yes, then I am sticking with OM forever!
or untill Ubi adds certain things and gets rid of another.
