Default 16k, WHAT IS THIS? (GWX)

Its part of the mods for GWX, I don't know what it is..

Also what mods do you have enabled from the SH3commander, the mods that came with GWX??

If you read the manual you will see that the 16Km Atm Mod comes with GWX. It's an optional mod that doubles your effective range as sensors and watch crew is concerned. It is enabled via JSGME that also comes with the game. For more information you can try reading the manual

With SH3Cmd you can enable the GWX Skin Pack, the Aircraft Markings and the Up to Date Recognition Manual.

The 16km Atmosphere Mod doubles the default visual range (8km), if your PC can handle it, I would suggest using it.

You can't enable MODS from SH3Commander per se. Do you mean JSGME (mod enabler)? If so, I have enabled from the GWX included mods....

No Medals
Captain America's Officer Icons
Late War Sensors
German Nav Map (name??)

Plus other mods of my choosing.

If you are using SH3Cmdr, please remember to be in port before/after a patrol, rollback SH3Cmdr & only then enable/disable mods via JSGME.

the 16 km mod simply extends the visible horizon from 8km to 16km. This causes a hit to performance but adds a more realistic visual range.

SH3 Commander is a seperate utility program that allows you to manage your career and certain SH3 options. It is non-mod specific. Therefore the only GWX related mods within it is the fatigue model. You can add certain files to SH3 Commander so that they are added when you load with it, but otherwise it isn't particularly GWX specific. However you do need to install certain files to the SH3 Commander main folder to make it GWX compatible.

EDIT. Damn you guys and your punctuality. I'm third chair helper now with the same lame a$$ advice. :P
