To mod or not to mod

leeclose · 03-01-07, 05:23 PM

Well i've been away from SH3 for a long time now but i dusted it of last week and been playing it stock and cussing at it "again"

so i've been looking thru the mods and theres a lot so i am calling out to every one to see what mod is best for me i like realism more than anything but with all the mods i'm kinda stuck so suggestions and comments on the various mods would be more than welcome

Hi and welcome to subsim

Well there are 2 ways to go

Either add a selection of mods to form your own install or add a supermod

There are 3 to choose from

WAC 2
NYGM 2.4
And GWX

Well I will have to stay unbiased and recommend GWX

New flotillas
New theatres of operation
New aircraft and shipping

I could go on

Read through the manual

Enjoy your stay

PS: Your

and

but you get use to it.

Well its good to see the forum is still as active and so for the GWX guys seem to have put a really excellent pacj together and its good to be back on SubSim feels like putting a well worn pair of slippers back on...

leeclose; Asking what mod to use in here is like tossing gasoiline on a campfire, repost city.

Here is a link to the SH3 MODS workshop
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/forumdisplay.php?f=195

All of the supermods contain a vast amount of talent and each enhance the game. Some make radical changes to how the game works, such as bouyancy, renown, and identification. You can download each one and try them, but first I highly suggest you read each manual or read-me files, and read them again. Make sure the mod you choose makes the changes to the game you want or would like, and not what someone else wants for you.

I think everyone here would recomend JSGME. Once you get the hang of that nifty application installing / uninstalling mods is much easier.

Yup ty for the info i used jones way back in the day and it was good back then ans seems to be getting better with age spent most of the day installing and uninstalling mods and sh3 the best so far IMHO in the GWX the depth is totally amazing kudos to the guys but they really need a social life

lol but yeah im impressed with a lot of them would be good to have all of them or the better bits from all of them but that aint happening soon and with SH4 out in 3 weeks i think they and us will have more to chew on Sub heaven.
