Default GWX - Best "Eye Candy" Mods to Add?

Hi All,

After a Long hiatus from SH3 driven by a PC meltdown, new baby and cross country move, I"m just getting back into it... New PC and a fresh install of SH3 with the latest GWX.

So here's my question... when I left the game, I had many, many mods and config changes, and it looked fabulous. I've since lost all of them, and know the latest GWX incorporates many that I may have added separately before.

Any recommendations on the best "eye candy" (compatible with GWX of course) to add, including:

- Best Type VII skin

- Water mod

- Environment mods

- etc.???

So many possibilities, would appreciate your expert advice...

Thanks and glad to be back,

Joel

Welcome back, product.

Here's a thought. Try the latest GWX for a while before you pour ketchup all over it.

Lifeboats!

Try Rubini's Lifeboats!

It adds lifeboats when you sink a ship, not just floating debris!

Ill second that one...gwx is the greatest mod ive ever seen for agame (ive been activly gaming for about 28 years). The life boats add a touch of class to it that I never even thought of.

This Mod is hardly Eye-Cany...it's more of a soul crushing immersion factor.

Sinking Ships will never be fun again! Those poor sods!

It is? I don't recall seeing the different flower-print dresses. I guess I need to uninstall everything again just so I can look again. Or was that a different mod?



<sigh>

If you're looking for some more of Fubar's VII skins go over to http://www.bts-mods.com/forums/index.php , register (it's free) & check out Lutzow's Vault. He has a pile of Fubar's skins. Most of them, if not all, seem to work fine with GWX 2.1.

Hope this helps...
