Now that's a helpful comment! As each supermod comes with a huge documentation, it is hard to see in one glance what trade-off each one makes.

I'm coming back to SH3, not having played it since... 2006! At that time there were no supermod. I was very surprised to see how active the modding had been since then.

The first thing I found (because it was the first thread in the forum) was LSH3 5.1, which I have installed and run very smoothly. It really looks like a new game and I was impressed. I was half expecting to be disappointed by old graphics, like with Jane's 688(i).

Back in 2006, I was enjoying a lot a series of mods that had been bundled into what was called "realism pack" or something like that. It was what was the most hardcore at that time.

So, now, according to your explanation, I think I should go for NYGM...
