Recommended mods?

NYGM has intelligent destroyers and enemy sensors. If you want a challenge go there.

My recommendation

NYGM
MAGUI F or Ahnenerbe gui
M.e.p.5 for environment

I always recommend SH3 Commander, which is not a mod but an external tool that lets you control several game parameters - deck gun reload times, crew fatigue rates, wave heights with different weather, more realistic crew loadouts, time spent in base between patrols, and a lot more - with a single mouse click. It also adds historically accurate names to the ships you sink, and has a database of all known crewmember names, which it then recombines into separate names giving a total of 1.7 billion possible names.

The best part is, it works outside the game which makes it reasonably stable.

Arguably the WAC mod has the most interesting campaign for the Atlantic, Baltic and Med. It also transforms UI to have realistic tools for the map and upgraded optics: There are at least 3 different Widescreen Guis you can use all designed for realistic play. Much improved 3D environment, also sub interiors (alas only stable in single missions currently).

The sh3.exe can be patched to support up to 3.8 GB RAM which should bypass any problems when additional mods are loaded, it's included in WAC but highly recommended for other heavy mods too, also the ones below.

My recommendations for other 2 big mods that I have played for a while :

- GWX3.0 (also called Gold Edition)
Interesting because it includes many historical encounters through all the world (not only Atlantic and Europe), and has a very helpful manual with it. Is less eye-candy than WAC or LSH3 but adds a lot of realism to the game. Very stable.

- LSH3-2015 improves sub interiors, environments and a lot of other things, but I don't know how it changes or adds traffic in the campaign, for campaign design WAC is unbeatable IMO.

With all mods I would use SH3 Commander which has a serie of useful features.

Cheers,
