A nice touch of realism

But that is to have 2 (or more) megamod installs to co-exist on your system and to easily switch between them. You cannot combine both in the same game. (too many changes made based on different sometimes opposing philosophies) Your can only play one at a time.

That is exactly what I meant. I was not saying you can combine super mods.

True, just a little emphasis on my part.

No problem...I have always had a bad habit of sometimes being brief and assuming that the reader will fill in the details

Kelly,

I have occasionally run across cripples in CWX. The most generous one was in the Med. I ran across a Aquitania Class Liner going 0 knots and it's decks almost awash. I was afraid that if I didn't do something quick it would flounder.

If the weather had been better my deck gun would have done the trick, but foul weather forced me to use a torpedo. She gracefully slid below the waves.

1 Torpedo for 36,000 tons really improves your tonnage for a patrol.

I am a little surprised that I have not run across this in GWX. I assume that they appear based on random chance. After playing GWX off and on over the last 8 or 9 years you would think I would have run into one....guess this is why I don't gamble on games of random chance...I always tend to lose.

It is amazing how SH3 can still surprise you. It sure keeps me coming back for more.

Hi

IIRC 2 or 3 times I encountered merchants and tankers left apart from a convoy and listing to port or starboard due to the bad weather (15 m/s wind) doing no more than 1 knot

It seems the heavy storm crippled the ships and the convoy & escorts followed their route and abandoned them. Perhaps they will sink if left alone more time in the wheather...

Amazing!

(I'm playing GWX + some realism mods)
Sorry my poor english

But this raises an interesting point since the various supermods generally package up a bunch of different individual mods into a stable load with supermod-specific upgrades.

I would be interested in figuring out what individual mods went into each supermod to figure out how to modify a stock SH3 install to try and get the best features of each supermod.

For example -

A supermod that successfully combinrs Merchant Fleet Mod combined with Wise's uboats combined with a MaGUI F compatible with H.Sie and Stiebler fixes while keeping all of the existing commands and icons, combined with Thomsen's Sound Pack and WAC5's harbors and damage effects on ships, LSHv15's modeling of taking a new uboat through a training flotilla, and having *every* historical combat flotilla modeled accuractely.

I imagine there are any number of smaller mods that would subsequently be included as well, such as the various mods to fix turms with improper placement of radars and RWRs, the WAC5 pseudodocking matched with H.Sie/Stiebler mids, etc.
