privateer,
Thank you for the info. unfortunatly, it will probably be awhile before i have the time to get back to computer modding--(actually don't have sh3 or any game installed on my comp at this time). Hoping to pick it back up after my wedding in two months (the soon to be misses has been pretty understanding of my hobbies so far-just hope it stays that way:rotfl: ). but by that time I'll probably be one of the few left tinkering w/sh3 due to the pending sh4 release.
I have been away for a little while but have seen the great mods you have in the works

. If you (or anyone for that matter) wants to take it and run with it--please feel free. I have the old arado file and the new gwx version arado file that I could upload to anyone who wants to try and finish it (existing work could save time)...the mod works as is and doesn't look too bad--just the wave motion quirk.
This is a pic of the GWX version I changed:
If no takers or if the GWX team does not include it (possible) with an update----I'll get back to it when I can for anyone who wants it.
