Luke, I agree with you completely on that, but you're never going to make people stop saying things like that. Not to insult the average gamer, but most of them don't know any better. I know that sounds harsh, but it's true. I know. I grind my teeth every time someone says "GWX made this game what it should have been in the first place". SH3 is still not what it should have been in the first place. All the major supermods go a long way to improve it, and a whole lot of great mods are still doing that every day. I just posted a huge heap of praise in the thread for FlakMonkey's Improved Interiors mod.
I play both SH3 and SH4, U-boats and Fleet Boats. I use RFB for one, and OM for the other, and I love them both. On the U-boat side I wish that some of the things from GWX would be modded in - the airships and harbor stuff mainly. I also wish that WAC's awesom Kiel bridges were in there (in fact I wish I could have them mixed in with other things I like for SH3). I also wish I could see the new Wilhelmshaven and other things in SH4. I might even stop playing SH3.
So I know that one supermod deserves praise, but so do the others. Unfortunately some people will never see past their own computer screens. But Kap is right - you have to let it go. It's probably never going to change, and you'll give yourself ulcers letting it eat you up. Even Privateer said earlier that it annoys him too.
I support you and your mods, and give praise to both when I think of it. Join in with the new gang and see what we can accomplish.
And the next time someone says those words you hate so much, I'll kick them for you.
