Default Nicer Typ IX C Boat

Are there any mods which make the Typ IX boats look a little better. The ones which come with the game and GWX look plane and simple. I played with the NYGM mod before and the boats looked somehow nicer.

Stock GWX UBoats look much better than stock NYGM ones, largely because NYGM ones are unmodded in the visual part, (There are however reflection and periscope fixes, as well as the smoke exhaust mod included) while GWX ones come at least with a nice hi-res skin. BUT there is a pack of improved models done by Mykhail for NYGM which are higher-res and add several improvements, so you are probably referring to that.

To improve the GWX models you can add several mods currently out there, like floodholes by Rubini, exhaust mod, several improvements by flakmonkey (periscopes, shaders, etc) and of course the improved turms by Aces, which have a specific thread here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=168825

Thanks a lot for your detailed answer. Where can I find this mods (I only found the exhaust mod).

BTW I really like your targeting tools.

You've just missed the boat Steve,
nothing else.
It's the WaterStreams mod.
