Who uses supermods, and who plays the stock games?
 
I was wondering what the overall percentage was of the whole mods thing? You play one of the supermods, like GW or NYGM, or do you play the stock game? Or maybe the stock game plus a few small mods? Whatchya do?

Play with GW1.1A - well used too :rotfl: dont have it on system at mo
Have tried NYGM and Uboat war ace too

Speaking of GW, what's some ways to figure out if you got a critical hit on the ship? Sinking takes FOREVER now.

Sinkings takes a while as the GW mod uses the NYGM damage model that means ships sink by flooding rather than just blow up
Aim for different areas of ship
Ships can still explode if hit in the right areas
The damage model is all new in GWX

Sometimes i get ships that say theyre sunk, but are still there after days and hours, do these ships sink eventually or what?

Two installs, one with GW1.1a (must.. have... GWX...) and one with NYGM 2.01 (must.. have.. 2.2...)

GW 1.1a for me.

Skubber 09-18-06 07:41 PM

GW1.1a

But I have "tweaked" it. Added in a few minor details. Subtracted a few things.

I think I used some sounds from Improved U-boat that I liked better, etc.

Stock SH3 for me - for now. I'm waiting on GWX and NYGM TW 2.2, at which time I'm going to treat myself to two installations.

I wanted to start with the stock game so I'd have a better appreciation for the efforts made in the supermods. I'm waiting because... well... the anticipation is actually fun as well. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas. :D

Cruising the Mediterranean based out of La Spezia, with GW with the Das Boot sounds sprinkled in here and there (I had no idea that GW's torpedo impact sound was taken directly from Das Boot until I watched it again this past weekend...hee hee!) and loving it :up:

GW1.1a and waiting for GWX.:)

SHIII with extra ships and a few control mods.. Will do a duel install in the futre for GW, once I upgrade my computer memory:hmm:

Zero Niner 09-18-06 09:45 PM

Stock SH3 for me, except for a few mdos & tweaks that make life a bit easier such as plotting tools, "ctrl-enter" to fire torpedos, etc.
I may go with one of the supermods in the future, but I do not like the "all or nothing" approach. The mods change some things that I'm perfectly happy to live with.

Koondawg 09-18-06 09:53 PM

SH3 43% with the only mod of loading out the sub wuth the torpedos of your choice...and no spamming
