GWX Questions

WeeBubba · 09-26-07, 03:42 PM

hey guys

personally speaking, i cannot wait for GWX1.04. silent hunter 3 is an absolutely awesome game, and GWX 1.03 is an absolutely awesome mod. i log on this morning, and theres like nearly 100 people viewing this forum, so the popularity is still there. so please accept my hearty encouragement as you continue development - the next release is eagerly anticipated!

regarding which mini mods to use, is there a weather mod that randomises the weather a little more that i can use with GWX? also, is there any mini mods which fix issues with GWX/vanilla? for example, i came across a post the other day where a guy was complaining about being spotted whilst using the snorkel. and the reply was like 'look for the snorkel/radar fix or something.' so basically im interested in a weather mod, and any mods which provide extra fixes, if u guys got any recommendations?

thanks!

Just out of curiosity... is there a political correctness to issuing revision numbers?

1.04 vs. 1.4 for instance?

...would a mod ever qualify as a 2.0?

...or is it just at the general discretion of the developer?

Oh yeah... you guys don't know about the GWX seal of approval do you?

Little secret that, tell nobody.

Hey just as an FYI... There's some pretty cool mascot-quality wolf images here: RivalArt.com

Didn't know if the GWX folks were looking for this sorta stuff...

Was the over-large radar cross section of the snorkel head reduced by GWX?... Yes it has been reduced... though it still detectable by enemy radar, albeit with lesser effectiveness. We are purposefully allowing it to remain as a radar-detectable object.

I do not recommend the stand-alone weather mod. (authored by "Skweetis") It was left in an unfinished state that produced some odd (bad) side effects. I do not recall the specifics of the bad side effects. Use it at your own risk.
