What mods do you use with GWX?

[jaxa]

GWX is complete for me, but I see that some of GWX players use other mods with this pack. Which of them do you recommend and why?

[melnibonian]

For me these are the ones I'm using

Explosions_and_gunfire-The sounds are more loud and realistic
GWX - Late War Sensors Snorkel Antennas-You need it if you want to use the advanced GWX Radars
GWX - No Medals on Crew-More realism in my opinion
GWX - Reduced Positive Buoyancy-I like my boat stable in PD
GWX - XXI Hydrophone Fix
Longer Torpedo Wakes v1.02-The wakes give a touch of realism to the game
QueenMary JSGME-Great Ship, huge tonnage
Sobers_3D_Waves-Better looking Waves
Torpedo damage Final-Brilliant visual effects
Torpedo Eagles-The more emblems the better
TarJaks_Custom-Emblems-Same as before

In SH3Cmdr I use

Aircraft Markings Mod-More and better markings for planes
GWX Skin Pack - Capital Ships-It's the GWX Skin Pack Do I need to say more?
GWX Skin Pack - Destroyers
GWX Skin Pack - Escorts
GWX Skin Pack - Merchants
Intro Scenes-More Random Intro Screens every time you start the game
Up to Date Recognition Manual-A touch of realism and eye-candy in the game
VIIC41 Mod-A FANTASTIC Model of a Great Sub
Variable Renown for GWX-Year Based Renown (increases by 2% per year) for ships and planes

On top of that I use the brilliant skins from Danlisa, Fubar and Venatore for my sub (depends on the type)

I use GWX optional mods too, especially GWX Integrated Orders. But what is GWX XXI Hydrophone Fix? It's not part of GWX optional mods pack.
GWX Skin Pack is "must have" too, although loading time using this mod is very very long.
What's Up to Date Recognition Manual? I've never heard about it?

The XXI Hydrophone fix was released when GWX 1.00 was released to fix the problems with the XXI's Hydrophones. I think it's part of the later updates of GWX.

This Mod generates versions of the Recognition Manual Depending on the year you're in. That way you have updated covers and rosters.

Hello Melnibonian:
Sorry to bother you, but is there a chance you could give me a link to the mods listed above?
Thanks Mel and sorry to bother you.

The recognition manual auto-updates with passing time when used with SH3 Commander. Check it out!

You don't bother me at all mate. I will upload the links this afternoon (I'm at work now and not in my home computer)

Excellent! Thanks from a "newborn" GWX user.

Thanks for very accurate reply, jimbuna
I hope all these mods will be included in GWX 1.04
Is the chance to play GWX 1.04 before end of June or should we wait a bit longer?

I've just seen it, but I don't know if it is good or bad to have it.

[HunterICX]

nothing more nothing less

[Jimbuna]

Torpedo Eagles
