1st Supermod for SH5 Poll!!

Some of these great mods Conflict, and some are outdated..

which means we have to make some choices we hate making for example:

Reaper7 high res ui which gives you a luvly (converted) OMEGU"ish" periscope

However, using using reaper7 mod means you cant simply use TheDarkWraith UI mod without picking apart code & merging it together individually

why cant we vote for a wolfpack team & Merge all the best mods together and glue together our first super mod for sh5?

to me it's very immature & stupid watching people bicker about mod rights..
"hey thats mine"! you cant put that in your mod!! wah wah - Just Lame

I know I cant be the first one to wish for a merged mod so if you feel the same speak up & VOTE!! for a new GWX2 Team.

first of all I will not be a part of anything that has GWX or anything of the likes in it's name. Pick a new name if you want any support/help/mods of mine in it.

Suit yourself.

Sorry for the slight Hijack..

but why would someone be against having GWX or something similar as a Mod name?

Seeing as I did not own SH3.. I do not know if there is any controversy about this. Please shed light

In sure hope this happens someday.
I for one am contemplating giving up on Sh5 for the same reasons. I just want to play a decent uboat sim. I have started back on SH3 and GWX since Conus00 released his widescreen mod, and it is everthing I enjoy less the visuals.

If a supermod does come about there welcome to all my work, as is anybody that wants it.

k first understand I think I speak for all of us SH fans when I say
I really don't care what we call it as long as it is made.

Secondly this is not something *I* am going to personaly do for all of us..

*I* didn't do any of the hard work & efforts put into any mods
so I will leave that to those that did the actual work to decide..

The Moders will have to man up and work together placing all selfishness
aside to make this happen for all of us so don't misunderstand the poll..

I am simply trying to get public feedback/opinions so that you moders
realize that though we apriciate your work .. working together as a team
to bring us something *Really good* is even better.

so rather this happens or doesn't that is up to those who made the mods

we just want to see sh5 have its first supermod

take the best of your works and cram it into an installer.


Here is a link to a Freeware *Simplistic* Installer with several easy examples/docs
it took me about an hour to make my first installer & Highly recommend it.

Didnt we answer a poll in regards to this a month ago?

I personally am not a Modder, but speaking as a simple player:

I will NOT come back everyother day to update my MegaMod. For example. TDW is constantly coming out with updates to his beautifull mod and it'd be annoying to have to constantly update the MegaMod to be compatible with this fact.

Secondly; we are only at patch 1.2. Though many speculate this is the finale, Ubi has made no such announcement. Why create a mega mod when a simple patch will make it obsolete?

Finally, if you want a MegaMod for yourself, merge the files of the Mod you want in your file folders and enable it in JGSME. I've had to start doing this as I have upwards of 50 Mods enabled in JGSME...

Updates = Versions

If you don't like updating versions stick with alpha (that's your choice)

I would update everyday if we had a CVS

We are a pretty long way off from a proper super mod for several reasons (some of which Krauter mentioned) imo. Also, you might not want to sound insulting to the very people that you are asking to do a tremendous amount of work.

"The Moders will have to man up and work together placing all selfishness
aside to make this happen for all of us so don't misunderstand the poll"

This does not sound very motivational to me.

Basically you're looking for modders to give you what you want... all polls are for this reason. A lot of what we want merged can be done ourselves, but hey that's too hard for someone wanting what we really want.
