I would second what GrenSo posted.

YES Boss the mods of Fifi remains the most successful of the moment.. go for it is a must
I agree with my classmates

I going to agree with my fellow Kaptians. NYGM Enhanced 2.1 is fantastic. I find it hard to imagine that it could get better, but it does. If you want to go in another direction, then try OneAlex 1.52. OneAlex hasn't been updated lately, due to real life circumstances, but additional ships have been added. I do expect OneAlex to return and NYYGM Enhanced 2.2 is on the horizon, so, between those 2, you can't lose, you can't go wrong. On another note, Toyotagt86 ain't bad either. Very stable. But my personal "go to's" right now are NYGM Enhanced and OneAlex, even though i dabble with 4 others. And now I wonder what GWX Knight's Cross, will bring to the table. We are so lucky to have people still interested in Silent Hunter III enough, to keep improving and improving, and improving, this game. It's almost hard to choose.

Onkle Neal,

You may want to consider, (you seem to prefer GWX), AlexOne's GWX mod 1.52 which is all inclusive. Just about everything you need for an up to date GWX.

Now, I am bias to NYGM and Fifi's updating of this classic with superior graphics and eye candy, while keeping the original game play that Stiebler intended, is a must.

They are my suggestions.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295

What's the difference between onealex and nygm?

NYGM is more... "hardcore". More like it was in real life for subs, airplane and destroyers attacks are deadlier, targeting is harder and other facts are more real, Onealex is also hard, but not as much as Fifi's NYGM Enhanced Hardcore.
Both have their treats in their own way...

Fubar2Niner just pointed out to me, that the 4GB patch should be added even though the version in the bottom right is v1.4

And the folder where SH3 lives should have the READ ONLY property UNCHECKED.

Greetings Onkel Neal...
Gwx Onealex uses Stiebler which is already patched 4go
NYGM 2.2 fix By Fifi also uses Stiebler
you don't need 4go patch
you need MultiSH3 for multiple installs
as well as JSGME it's all...
you will see Boss you will not regret.. both mods are very difficult..
especially in bad weather.. it is very difficult to torpedo or even impossible..
the escorts are not left out as well as the aviation...
There you go my dear Neal, I hope I have clarified enough...

Good continuation is my best regards

Good to know, and I will test it, if your release is done.

[Mad Mardigan]

Onkel Neal..


1st off, welcome back to SH3 Kaleun status.



Call me biased, but.. am with most of the rest... Fifi's revamp of NYGM, but.. this is not to disparage OneAlex's GWX Rework, either.. if you're more preferable to GWX.



Both of them are quite good, each.. in their own right.


Your call, when all is said & done, at the end of the day.



Which, is what's important..



Hope that helps.. as always.

Wow, nice feedback! I really appreciate that, I feel like a newbie! Well, I guess I kinda am a newbie, so your direction is gold.

So, I want to load GWX 3 and play a few missions with that, then I want to switch to fifi's NYGM as suggested and play a career.

I have Steam SH3 running fine on my programs86 directory, so I will attempt to install GWX 3 on that version.

Sadly, before I broke the SH3 on my D: drive, it was running GWX, just in a small window.

After that, definitely fifi all the way.
