Nicely put, but is there a simple explanation of what it does? I do not have the time to go through 599 pages of explanation of what a Mod does, albeit I will leaf through it while I'm on patrol. But is there a simple to the point explanation of what it does to gameplay? All supermods have some graphical enhancement and sounds, but what does it do to AI and Gameplay?
|
Not really. As I said, dozens of ports have been rewritten, dozens of new units have been added, AI is adjusted in ways I can't comprehend...Pretty much everything has been changed, and the only way to understand it is to read the manual or just load it and try it.
But you don't have to actually read every page. Just skim through it. You'll get a general idea of what's been done.

Excellent, what is the name of his ID? Just Aces? Also, where is a better list of all SH3 Mods as the Modsworkshop forum is very short ~8 pages if I'm not wrong.

Aces' mod is stickied on page 1, and the SH3 Mods Workshop Forum is 300 pages long.
One place you can look is in the Subsim Downloads section. What we have there is actually a fairly small amount, but there are still more than you can think of without an index.
