Help with selecting mods...

Ahoy,
I have been away and haven't played SH3 for almost a year. For someone like me surviving Australia for 11 months was quite a challenge!

Anyhow, I want to enlist again and dive into this WWII sim as deep as the crush depth would allow me. I have already checked for "new" mods (GWX3!!! Whooohoooo!!!) but it's so many of them I cannot make up my mind. Also, the compatibility is a BIG issue... I hope you'll understand I had no contact with neither SH3 nor the community forums for 11 months and desperately need you assistance! Please, help me to find the mods I need.

As I said, I've had a quick look and all the below features seem to now be available for SH3. Could you please name the mods that add them to the game? I'd be most grateful for you help!

In my 2009 Silent Hunter 3 Experience I would like to have:
- GWX3!!!
- NYGM mod is now compatible with GWX? No? There's something called War Ace Campaign 3.0 - can this be merged with GWX?
- better sea (I've seen some BEAU-TI-FULL pictures of the waves, the sea texture and water lightening!)
- new u-boot models (I only found type VIIC - are there others as well?)
- better explosions
- bigger ship variety
- debris in the water, oil, crates, (dead) sailors, rescue rafts...
- loooooong ship wakes, including u-boots !
- longer smoke trails AND EXHAUST U-BOOT SMOKE!

- bow spray and water coming out of the u-boot vents... I think it's a part of the WAKES mod... (?)
- REALISM&IMMERSION!!!

I hope you won't send my googling... :/ Trust me - after such a long time away from the subject the amount of possibilities is huge and I don't want to miss a single mod worth checking out!

Thanks!
