Default GW vs NYGM mods

I am new to the SH3 community, but I am a AOTD veteran, not to mention ssub classics back to Gato.

Once I got SH3 on my new computer, and put a seperate video card in the machine, I quickly downloaded the GW mod. I did not know about the NTGM mod at the time. Could someone outline the sailent differences between the two?

I started using NYGM because the PC I play on would have been a little underpowered to run GW which adds a lot of graphics, and also because this mod was replacing the original "renown" system which I always disliked by something more realistic (it takes a fixed amount of time in port to fit improvements on the sub) I think if I am right that until now they use the same flooding damage model for surface boats, the fatigue model is a little different and may be the sensors/spotting model of warships make them more dangerous in NYGM than GW.. But as I never played GW, I am sure other Kapt'ns who use it can correct me if I am wrong.
It's just a matter of personal taste then to choose between both. I run SH3 Gen and SH3 Weather on top, plus the fantastic Fubar skins.

Whenever the GWX beta period is over and finally released, im 100% positive this topic will never come up again.

Until the next NYGM version comes out ? Nahh just kidding, don't shoot me...
The way the world goes, as soon as SHIV is out, you probably will find this forum mostly empty I guess...

SHIV is still a long way in the future. For now GWX rules. let's judge SHIV once it's here and not jump to conclusions

Wrong assumption sailor. For many players, the true Uboat war means Atlantic Ocean not Pacific. SH 3 got a loooong life ahead especially with those great mods in the pipeline.

I don´t think so, the forums will continue as now, but i think that GWX could be the last big mod for sh3 .

still could be released small mods or fixes for sh3 but a lot of modders can start the work with sh4 making future releases less frequent.

but who knows , if the sh4 structure is compatible with sh3 models, it would be very interesting... :hmm: :rotfl:

sorry but i can´t resist the temptation.... , my first game was wolfpack,
