Luno, I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek, since like you I am never able to resist trying out That New Mod, which often results in having to restart my career. And I misused the word "comprehensive" to mean "including all my requirements and desirements" rather than "including all relevant mods." I would be interested in seeing your mod list, and anyone else's, as I can learn from them all. For SH3/GWX, I try to keep the list as short as I can, in keeping with the spirit of the game. I understand what you mean about "harmonizing" the mods, particularly the graphics mods, to keep a consistent quality level. And I find it necessary to tweak some of the mods, to combine features that I like.
The trick, as you originally said, is to find a modload that you like and STICK TO IT. As Churchill liked to say: "Better is the enemy of Good Enough." Even with a platform as stable as SH3/GWX, I can find myself spending all my game time finding, evaluating, and tweaking mods while never actually playing the game at all. I am currently not playing SH5, because every time The Dark Wraith (inter alia) comes out with a new fix, it is such a significant improvement that I can't resist it. Which puts me back in the bunker!
