damage graphics overdone?

I fixed it by updating but I found it strange.

i never said sh3 was the "best" i said it had the most fully functioning features (and im not talking aboiut which version does or does not have the most features) and the AI and game engine "worked" the best overall of the three. (again im not talking about which game has the best AI or game engine)

my favorite of the 3 versions is sh4 with sh3 as a close second although im expecting sh5 will replace it in the #2 spot at some point when it matures through many more mods in a few years. i prefer fleetboats and thats why i choose the way i do, those who prefer uboats favor sh3 as the #1 choice but to each his (or her) own.

there is a lot involved in these games the average player doesnt notice such as the floatation charactoristics as well as the way the sea acts and reacts to things. other things such as the environment has so much that goes far beyond just how cool things look but the experienced modder can see things that dont work right now that did before and these are the types of things i refer to.
