Default Which fatigue model for GWX and SH3 commander

I'm a little confused on the fatigue models. The manual for GWX 3.0 recommends NOT using the GWX 24-hour in SH3 Commander, but I don't see that in the list. I see GWX 8-hour. So for the experience intended by GWX 3.0, should I choose:

Nothing (don't check the box)
Default SH3
GW/GWX 8 Hour

?

Thanks!

EDIT: The more I think about it, I believe for what I'm after I would leave it unchecked in SH3 Commander.

I use the no fatigue option. I hate micro-managing the crew and tucking them at night. I set up my crew for "battle stations" and leave them there until I need to move them if there are casualties or damage to the sub.
I got fed up very quickly in the stock game with crew fatigue, and GWX/SH3Commander was a godsend concerning crew fatigue.

The SH4 crew management was a breath of fresh air and I hope SH5 is modeled similarly.



Welcome aboard!

The no fatigue modle is the best one as far as the SH3 Commander options go I think. The stock setings are just a little odd if you ask me in terms of the ammount of time the crew stays on station befor they have have to be rotated out. On top of that it is kind of a pain having to manulay move every one around like they don't know when they are too tierd to keep doing thier job.

Don't quote me on this but I think I remember seeing the the GWX 3 gold manual, the one that is created when the mod is installed, that they also recomend the no fatigue moddle.

Hello !

I also use the "no fatigue" option in SH3 Commander. Finally, I as a captain can not monitor the observance of pauses of my crew...

Best regards,
Magic

I also use the 'no fatigue' version for similar reasons to sharkbit.

In tc above x32 the fatigue model stops working irregardless of what you choose.

Thanks - that all makes sense. I haven't played enough yet to really see how it plays out through an entire patrol. From what you're all saying it sounds like it's not worth the trouble.
