Bored with Vanilla, want SuperMod, but how?..

[Hitman]

NYGN, which is, to my knowledge, more of a realism mod. I don't know how to install it, but it probably has to do with JSGME, which you can download from somewhere on the forum.

NYGM and GWX mods are both about realism, albeit with different perspectives and choices. In GWX, (As I understand it) superb graphics are a part of that realism, and of the inmersion and atmosphere that attempts to be created, so it clearly outshines NYGM in that part. Plus ability to play careers in the Black Sea and Indian Ocean. However, if you are looking for a certain game experience you expect from the game, all that is not as relevant as the feeling you get from each mod. In that case, simply try both and decide yoruself which is better.

Concerning your main question:

NYGM installs via JSGME, while GWX does it via its own installer. NYGM can thus be easily removed, while GWX will require a clean reinstall of SH3. However, once you install GWX there are 99,999999% chances you would never go back again to vanilla SH3 (Well probably even more than 99,999999%:hmm: ), so don't let that be an issue.

For NYGM install: Go to the sticky in this page, dowload the full NYGM 2.5 pack and put it into JSGME "Mods" folder inside SH3 main directory. Then just enable the mod. It will take a while, so be patient.

For GWX install: Download all the separate parts of it, put them to a folder. Click on the installer and point to your SH3 directory. The installer will do the rest. Once you are done, copy and paste over it the latest patch (1.03 if I remember correctly)

That's all. Well, not all....now kiss your friends and relatives good-bye for some time, your guaranteed to be glued to the screen for some weeks
