Default Which mod to use?

Hi, I'm looking for the best available single install mod fpr Silent Hunter 3. The mod should enhance realism but not necessarily difficulty but gaming experience. Any advices?

GWX

Take no notice of the sigs, no one is biased, it is a pure coincidence

GWX or NYGM :p But ptobably the best isto download both and make two installs, then try which one your prefer. GWX ships more eye-candy, that's for sure. Wether it is more "realistic" than NYGM or the opposite is probably a matter of taste. Since none of us has experienced the U-Boot reality, it's all about which game play you prefer and seems to you more approximate to what you know about real life U-Boots.

GWX is certainly the most popular in terms of the number of people that play it

A grand Idea, why not?
Make it a sticky even. Can a poll be done in this forum as just a poll - no posts I wonder. Or limited to 1 post & 1 post only. It would need to include the major mods and not be skewed for any particular one and ability for people to vote for more then one. Cookie from the site should keep it fairly honest. I would say GWX would take 80%.

@ Jimbuna

An interesting idea, shall we test it?

A poll has been started here - http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=111917

@ danurve

All members are limited to one vote and the only way around that it to change their IP addy. 80% you say, we shall see.

If you want harder difficulty, more realistic gameplay, and better visuals go for GWX.

However if you don't want the stock gameplay to be any different then go with War Ace Campaign. Its just cosmetic so far as I understand.
