Using GWX 3.0, what mods are you using?

Hello everyone, im creating this topic to see what everyone is using and to compare and hopefully we can all help and improve each other's game experience. So currently i have silent hunter patch to 1.4b, i installed GWX 3.0 gold final version. I have SH commander 3.2 installed and here's the list of my mods that i play with pros/cons:

GWX-contact color- Pro- I missed the red and blue contacts. Con- Not as realistic
GWX-Enhanced Damage- Pro-Pretty much self explanatory Con- dont see any
SH-5 Water forGWX3.0 V0.9 20km atlantic version- Pro- The water is more blue, personally so far i think its the best looking water graphic mod. Con- Underwater is a lil too blue for me just alil, but its the best i have used compared to Tomsen water Ver 4
Torpedo Damage Final ver2.0- Pro- Adds like a "metallic" sound to explosions Cons- None
GWX additional ammo- Pro- extra ammo for all guns Con- Not realistic
Life boats and debris ver 4-Pro- Adds life boats to sinking ships based on sink time, Con- None
Q ship mod GWX 3- Pro- Adds q-ship i think this one is JIMBUNA's
Waterstream and Exhaust combo Ver 2.3- Pro- It adds exhaust smoke for all subs and creates a more defined waterstream for all subs. Con- it doesnt let me use the DF antenna down mod or the DFA flags and pens 2010 mod same reason. But i really wish i could use a the DFA Flages and pens with the Combo mod maybe someone knows how. I hate i can put the DF antenna down or raise the pennants for sunk ships.

I also have the VIIC/41 mod not the standard GWX one, but the improved one with the unique hull and skin from Tomi_99. Plus the waterstream from tomi for the VIIC/41. It replaces the original VIIC so ill use it when it becomes available. I also got a bunch of awesome skins for different subs from WOlfhunter and Fubar. Then got some great skins. Im using the IXB currently. So thats it, i hope to hear what the rest of you got running...

Steve so you use that flag and pennant mod for sunk ships? How did you get it to work with the waterstream/exhaust Kombo?

I started off activating one mod at a time, and testing to make sure it worked. After I got one the way I wanted it I went back and installed it directly to SH3 and tested it again. For a very long time I used separate Waterstreams and Exhaust mods before I used the Kombimod. As you see the Waterstreams/Exhaust is one I have permanently installed. The Flags & Pennants mod I put in with JSGME. I haven't had any trouble with it. That said, I've never fiddled with the pennants part. I just like raising the flag while I'm in port. I'm no expert, I just fiddle a lot.

Firstly i wanna thank you for taking the time to help me, i really do apperciate it. Im just trying to make this game as fun as possible. Its been 2 and half years since i got this involved again. Based on the list you provided, i downloaded these mods---
TMTv2+ThomsensShips v4.4 for GWX3+Xtra ships
WB's Decks Awash + Fuel Economy
New_clearsky_clouds
Rbs_SH4_effects_GWX_30_71 silent hunter 4 effect for silent hunter3
SO i got two last questions and i promise i wont bother you anymore.
1. in which order should i JSGME these above?
2. How do i manually install the Kombi mod for waterstream and exhaust so i can use the Flag and penant mod? Once that is done i will finnaly have a great collection of mods and a truly awesome SH3 ready to play, thanks Steve i really do apperciate your help.

I like Brett's, but having said that I can't honestly claim it's better as I haven't tested the other one.
