SH3 - GWX end of an ERA

While great in it's day, sh3 looks horribly dated next to SH5. And yes, SH3 does have it's own forum.

Not only does it have its own forum, but all you have to do is visit there to get an answer to your question.

And it has a thread full of current patrol logs.

A bit disapointed to see a 1500 posts member make such a thread..?

It's not like subsim structure should be a mystery to you anymore lol !

Oh... its just the never ending sh3 banner waving in the SH5 forum that has me wondering in my original post.

Hello,
i think the SH3 sim looks better than ever,

accessible torpedo rooms, officer's mess, kitchen, engine room, full 3d antenna insulators, bunkers much better than anything i saw yet, including SH4 and 5, a real dynamic campaign (not scripted like "go there do that sink 100.000 tons" lol), a full campaign until 1945 with several types of U-boats, and tons of other stuff SH5 has not. Listing all that is missing in SH5 would fill up this forum, let alone this !"§$%&/()!! online requirement.
Indeed an SH3 with SH5's eye candy would beat the latter by miles.
But to be able to discuss the shortcomings of the new lease-a-game version you certainly need SH5, if only for comparison

Greetings,
Catfish

Those interior views on that youtube vid horribly dated? I beg to differ! Looks a damn sight better that SH5 and it's colourfulness. Only the water is clearly superior in SH5, along with the support for newer shader models making the lighting more realistic. Though on the other hand SH3's modded water in storms with the wakes not being transparent like the Pacific is a notable plus. Otherwise I don't see the superiority of SH5 considering it's 5 years newer.

Been out of the loop for a while but after seeing these mods hell I want to fire up SH3 again!
