Essential mods for SH4

Nuoz · 04-21-10, 10:00 AM

He everyone. So I'm giving in a serious try to SH4. After playing SH, SH2, DC, SH3 with the GWX mod, I'm trying SH4. Currently doing the normal game campaign and am already having some trouble. The stock game doesn't work so well. I want to play with contact updates on because of sudden air strikes with no previous warning. (sometimes the game will give me a radar contact and boom, I'm hit). It's also amazing the planes don't do so much damage at all and they seem to go away after a single run! That's too easy!

I must confess I've tried the RFB 2.0 mod already and although there were many things i liked, there were other things which, in my opinion, were not so good.

Good: the extra tools on the map, the textures, the being able to walk inside your sub, the realism improvement.
Not so good: Crossing walls while walking, the new water textures steal away some FPS without much adding to the experience, in my opinion. Nicely looking though!

Isn't there a way to have all the realism but keeping the stock graphics and have the captain in place? I don't really need to walk around the sub for now!

Thank you very much!
