I also came back to SH3 after a many years of messing about with SH5. I installed (among others) GWX, 4gb patch, FM_NewInterior, Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920x1080, M.E.P v5, Radio England and Thomsen's Sound Pack.
WoW!
Honestly, thanks mostly to M.E.P and Ahnenerbe's GUI and a few specific Nvidia tweaks it looks and plays amazing. I think it looks just as a good as SH5 but you are left feeling more comfortable in the knowledge you have a more robust simulation going on underneath.
As nice as SH5 looked I always had niggling doubts at the back of my mind about the capabilities underneath - I'm not an expert on it but I'm just going by the general criticisms it has had over the years. I have always been under the impression SH3 is far superior technically and always will be. But feel free for anyone to correct me.
