OK, so you say it's nothing more than telling us about his project. Well then he should have started a thread or responded to a current thread telling us of his accomplishments instead of complaining about someone elses future project which has no effect on what he's done whatsoever.
That was my point as well. It really came across as a dig on the GW team. Differing opinions are great, but tactifully expressing them is even better.

Wow, talk about seeing something different seen.
I really thought there would not be a single reply to this thread and I just now came to the forum after original posting it

First, I in no way was criticizing GWX before it is released. Those that thought that simply missed the point. Because after all this time I finally have this SH3 as real as I believe it can be starting over just seems daunting.
No more.

What ever you think of calling the Hunt class there is no ED designation and my point was it was purpose built to escort not a fleet destroyer with which SH3 classes it as and by having a DE classed one that expands along with the GW added US DE as HMS and the original River (Which is not a River at all) allows for using 3 generic type 3s in the RND varying the make up of escorts (with 3 type not one and reducing using DDs as escorts)) making convoy predictability by recognizing the escort make up more difficult. (Don’t make me repeat that!):rotfl:

I will certainly get GWX and will certainly find it lacking for my purpose.
That is not a cut in any way.
Many point out my level of realism is just too close to nerve racking and I agree but I will insist on that and if GWX was made to that most would find it more than they might enjoy.
It is not being made to suit me and again knowing that I know I will start over.

As for me being any part of any project in this community I just can’t consider it and as was pointed out I would not be welcome.
Excuse my arrogance but I have no doubt GWX would benefit in many ways from my involvement but my refusal to be part of past witch hunts makes me an outsider not welcome by the party faithful.
I would not mention this but since a couple made it a point to make the cutting insults I have the right to reply!
I am in two other projects anyway and have a good idea on how taxing and difficult the commitment is.
I am happy as most here are that the fine group in GW is working so hard for our enjoyment and my altering it means I respect it and just want to extra tweak not change the great effort

I love how SW gets thrown in, some just can’t resist.

That patrol was on the edge from the moment I left the pen and I had 8-10 DD contacts and many aircraft close calls and that 6 hour pounding and was nearly sunk many times. Had that been real life I might have deserted upon my arrival in St Nazaire.

I was just thinking out loud about how GWX taking longer would delay my starting over to reach this same super intensity

Bottom line my install is a heavily modded GW and since GWX will still be somewhat user friendly it will not be nerve racking enough for me hence I will have to start over.

Whatever else you make of this is in your head and was not from me.

Then I'm curious Wulf, how do you know what will be in GWX? Unless you happen to be a Beta tester or are involved in its development, I see no reason how you could know what's going to be in it...

Arrogance is a weakness...overconfidence is a weakness...Hitler learned these things the hardway and ended up blowing his brains out he backside of his head...

I never said I knew what was in GWX.
By what they say it will be different that the current one.
Am I wrong to assume that is true?

All I said was after a year and a half I finally have SH3 as real as I can get it for the first time and when GWX is released I will have to re-tweak that to suit that same intensity because it is not being made for me.

I certainly do not expect it to be so I will have to make it such and because that will take a lot of work it being delayed will allow me to enjoy this version a little longer.

Some mistook my "Not being anxious" to mean I did not think it would be good. That is wrong. I expect it to be so good I will want to stop playing this version and tweak it to suit mey idea of reality.
This really would not be that hard to understand if some were not looking to make it more than it is.

Wulfmann, it seems to me that you are more worried about having to re-tweak things to suit your needs. There is a simple solution to it all, don't use the GWX mod when it gets released.

Or don't tweak it! I plan to wait and see what's in and whats not. I've also tweaked my GW install with a bunch of new ships and planes and while I hope the ones I've got are all in GWX I'm not going to be too bothered if not. Just tweak again and test and if it all works viola! I'm a happy kaleun again!

Don't count your chickens yet Wulfman, GWX is no picnic... you may have to do less tweaking than you think.

If you don't get that joke you need to see Battle Of Britain (or if you've seen it you need to watch it again).
