What happened to the guys who gave us GWX are they still active on these forums? I knew they were not going to do the same for SH4 and thought that they would have had a go at doing something for SH5. I suppose with all the complaints about DRM which was not what we were all expecting put most of the modders off doing anything with it, to the same level as they did with SH3.
I really like SH5 because the graphics are brilliant compared to the other SH sims, but trying to get it modded with what is available, makes it quite difficult for me personally, because I just can't get the hang of altering some of the files to get them right to install using JSGME. A lot of the mods are JSGME ready and I have no problem with those, but The DarK Wraith UI mod which I would like installed, prevents me from doing so because I just can't fathom out how to get it JSGME ready, cos I don't know enough about altering files etc.
I know why The Dark Wraith has uploaded them this way, so that one can choose what style of interface they want (SH3, SH4 SH5Enhanced etc) but for newbies and the likes of people like me, it would be better if these were made JSGME ready.

many of the guys who did GWX are still here... i think there was a GWX4 in the works but it was abandoned due to dwindling personnel and the announce of SH5's looming release.

the guys who brought us GWX did so at enormous personal cost not only of their time but at the expense of their personal lives as well.

I personally dont see a GWX team reunion in the works for anything involving SH5. but i've been wrong about lots of stuff lots of times.

Already tried that one. It leaves BLANK WHITE AREA in the middle of the screen. I'll stick with the one I have for now, at least it works and is much better than the crap interface that comes with the stock game.

Scripted
Yes but still a lot of choice - it is not quite a one route campaign.

So why do you not do this

Why dont you watch the vids that poeple have made or just ask for help on how to install it and set it up. Its not that hard

Yes the guys working in SH5 are doing great

I certainly didn't want to imply otherwise. Just answering his question as to whether or not the GWX crew was going to do a massive .exe style GWX type mod


My thought on it: Doubtful
