At the end of the day, GWX wasn't designed to please everyone, it was made with great attention to detail and historical fact and went waaaaay beyond what stock SH3 had to offer. They did this free, for us, and asked nothing in return and I for one am thankful.
Now, there are two sides to gaming, the simulation side where things need to be as close to reality as possible, and there is pure gaming, where the action is fast and plentiful for a 'quick fix'. GWX is certainly not the latter, and yes you will spend a long time travelling around without seeing anything, as did the real Kaleuns, that's realism....
As far as the messages go, there are mods to fix them and the weather? Well until Ubi release the SDK there's nothing every modder on the planet can do. From your post, I'd guess you probably ramped up the TC quite a bit and if you'd have taken your time and looked, you'd have read that high TC can cause the weather to 'stick', so it's most probably your fault that you had such a bad experience. Try using no more than 128x and you should see the weather change.
Frankly, I find your post abhorrent and should be deleted because you've obviously not given the mod anywhere near a fair chance and you're throwing dirt in the faces of those that spent hours upon hours of their free time to bring us this gem of a mod. Luckily for you, this community is very open to people's opinions and rarely lower themselves to derrogatory behaviour, but unless you've got A.D.D. I'd suggest you keep your opinions to yourself until you have given GWX a fair chance and you've looked around the forums for some answers to your issues, because it's certain that someone has posted about every one of them.
Just look at my sig, I run ALL those mods alongside GWX and then some, there are more that wouldn't fit on the sig!! Everybody will need to flavor their game to taste, you are no different so get out there and do some reading.
Alternatively, stick with SH4 and enjoy 'gaming'.
