Default Searching for a mod in download section

It's a bit confusing now to look for a mod you want to download. Since now there are subfolders on which you have to click to be able to see what kind of mods are inside.

It takes more time also. Not sure about the others but I was more satisfied in seeing all mods in one long single list..

Previously you could also see what new mods has been added just by looking at the top of every category. Now it's a trouble..

There aren't very many sub-categories, and they are devoted to specifics like skins and ships. Would you like to have just mods, with everything for every game in one huge list?

I felt the old way was a PITA.
It took someone updateing it which was
never as fast as we would have liked.
(Blast you real life!)


Plus the links could and would
(Just when you really needed them!)
go 'POOF'


Change for changes sake is worthless.
This change is Gold!!

I like the new system. The search function is your friend.

Ok, when you click on SH3 there isn't sorted mods which are ment to be for stock and which for GWX 3.0. It's all in one place and is messy..

And search function helps only if you know what you're looking for

I like the new system. It makes you go through the downloads by category. If they weree just all listed together I think it would be difficuult to pick out the mods you are interested!

A great asset to the group in my opinion!

If you remember our old list of mods it was sorted in category's as well. The wise side of it was you could find everything you need in one list without switching from one window to another.

Some mods haven't made it to the new system yet.

Others in the old mod forum (SHIII) lead to deadend.

You want me to change it back

We're always open to improving the system, but you know, it's not possible to please all the people all the time.

In this situation I bet voting would help

Hello, first real post here.
I need to know which mods work for GWX3 and which do not. Will every mod I find for SHIII work or just the ones that say for specificly for GWX?

What added ship mods? Uniforms? Radar? Arrrrrrrr......my head hurts thinking of all of those beautifull pieces of art I have been missing out on all these years.

See I have been playing on my lap top for years, never really knowing how bad my graphics were. I'm talking bad, no way it should even work but it did.

Then I stumbled in here and looked at the screnshots, then videos, then the greatest of all GWX. I placed my order for a new computter the next day.

Now I want everything. Can one of you help?

Oh...and if any of you guys that make these mods are reading this...


THANK YOU SO MUCH...
the changes take a game and make it an experience
