Default SH4 in SHIII

Since SH4 is built on SHIII graphics engine, How much can be taken from SH4 to improve III? Also I play SHIII GWX 2.0 would anybody recomend getting 4 as well?

Have you ever read the SH3 Mods forum? There is a thread there devoted to just that - things taken from SH4 and applied to SH3.

As for SH4 itself, my machine won't run it, but most of the people playing it love it; and the new U-Boat add-on has everyone speculating about a complete upgrade, so u-boaters can have the awesome graphics and crew management as well.

SH4 is no different to what SH3 was like when it was released.

Patches/upgrades are an ongoing process that will eventually/hopefully eradicate most if not all of the issues.

Thats what I was thinking... everytime I see a screen of the SH4 interface I just feel a bit queasy and think I couldn't make the switch just for the lack of 6dials simfeeling.
