Try playing GWX with SH3 Commander first before adding any additional mods.
Gain a little experience and form a view whilst playing what, if anything extra you would like to have in the game.
below is a little guidance for installing GWX and SH3 Commander

1. Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6.Download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.

10) download + install JSGME
11) Run SHIII once
12) configure JSGME
13) install mods
14) install mods for SHIII Commander (like GWX combined skin pack)
15) remove the files in data/movies/backgrnd and data/movies/intro to skip the annoying intro movies
13) run SHIII through SHIII Commander

When your pc is not very up-to-date you can also install FSautostart to kill unneeded processes before running SHIII (commander)

Mods I use (and recommend

:
- GWX lite harbour traffic (if your computer is a little slow)
- torpedo damage final (for huge holes in ships after torpedo impact)
- racerboys sh4 effects for sh3 (for great effects)
- the real ping (for real ping

- racerboys hud (for easy manually targeting)
- exhaust smokes (you can find them for all u-boats in racerboys collection)

Good luck!
