Started playing again - Which mods to install?

joejccva · 12-01-06, 10:38 AM

Hey guys,

I just reinstalled SH3, but I had forgotten which mods were the best to use? Can anyone tell me which mods I should download and use?

Thanks in advance!

Wait for GWX, the supermod, will be out in a week or so. Read about it in the mod forum. You have a lot to catch up on!

Well my preference is GWX since I've tested it, but in general, it's best to find a supermod which has already got many of the smaller ones already in it.

SH3 Commander is a program which most people use and I highly suggest. A new version will be out soon which is incorporated to work well with GWX.

For now, I'd suggest just playing the Vanilla version and then when you get that supermod, you'll see how big a difference it really makes.

There are a few others I've used in the past like SH3gen which gives you locations of enemy ships during certain time frames and intelligence on where to go and what to look out for like subnets and mine locations at enemy ports.

The weather mod was good when I used GW1.1a. I don't know yet whether it will be needed or even work with GWX.

GWX after you try it you will not go back to anything else

Except of course the GWX Update (whenever that arrives)

And when exactly is GWX releasing for us to try? I'm anxious about this supermod now.

Before Xmas I gather. Can hardly wait. I'm dieing by meters.

But the suffering will be worth it. GWX
