Default in my opinion...

...SH3+GWX is more consolidated than SH5.
i have SH5+mods and it looks terrific -like the SH Series should: SHINE
as SS has said SH3 has had and still gets years of work dedicated to it.

SH3+GWX is for me, the most stable of the two.

a simplified analogy would be: you buy a brand new car (SH5) and it looks fabulous, but then you have to take it straight to the garage to get it seriously overhauled, and even then...
...its gonna need years of dedicated work to get up to the classic car status of SH3+GWX.

i have spent many hours reading and watching 'how to' tutorials by the excellent modding team at SH5. it should not be necassary with a new product. can you imagine Dyson releasing a new vacuum cleaner in such a state as SH5. the recall and complaints would scream from every media around the world.

so is it right that we buy a product so unfinished and demanding. the inquisitive newbie but techno-challenged enthusiast, like myself, must feel great frustration and dissapointment at discovering how incomplete and flawed SH5 is as it stands alone out of the box.

it is a great looking sim and with work from the modders it is gaining stability/playability...slowly. this is my opinion and experience only.

given time it will come, and develope in to the next generation SH Series.
the best thing to do then, if you have the system to handle it is to give it a try. but i feel it needs to be set free from some of the confines placed upon it and this will take patience and TLC from the modders and players and maybe some support from UBI.

edit; just seen classic car analogy already used by TDK. oops, sorry
