Suggested mods
After playing stock SH3 for years, and adding GWX into the mix a few months back, I'm starting to get more and more interested in throwing in more mods to make SH3 even more immersible, realistic and enjoyable
So far I'm running GWX 3.0 Magui F (Final version) TMT v2 [s]And I'm about to test out the FM/DD New Interior mod[/s] My computer doesn't like that mod. Any tips on mods I should try out? I'm going for realism here. I've already spent countless of boring shifts at work with reading up on manual plotting and targetting! Last edited by Kip336; 05-28-11 at 02:31 AM. |

 I guess I could upload them, but the sound mod is just files I liked from other sources all put together so I could enable them all at once, plus alternate game music from the Das Boot soundtrack. At one point I had a list of which sounds came from which mods, but I can't find it.  It has alternate versions of the following files: Depth charges exploding from submarine.wav which I know is from Torpedo explosion.7z (probably from Jimbuna's Filefront page) and amb_SubmarineInterior.wav Dive sequence.wav P05_@Depthcharge_explosion.wav all of which I'm pretty sure came from the DBSM (Das Boot Sound Mod). But I converted the first of those down to a smaller file, about 30Mb compared to the original which I think was around 50Mb. It also has alternate versions of all the Ono_Cheers01.ogg and Ono_Cheers02.ogg files in the Speech subfolders, as well as all the xxxxx_New_message_received.ogg and at least some of the xxxxx_Depth_charges_in_the_water_sir.ogg files that are in there. The "new message" files are shorter than the GWX versions, I think I used the stock versions there to get rid of the long drawn out 'dit dit dit' business at the beginning. The other two files I think I may have taken from DBSM or one of its add-ons. At any rate the "cheers" files are empty, no sound at all, so it just eliminates that sound effect from the game completely. The cap emblem mod goes with Rapt0r's Uniforms, he has a cap emblem texture that puts a "laughing swordfish" emblem on some of the crew's caps. I made an alternate version that puts my own boat's emblem (the valkyrie helmet) there instead. As for the No Instant Death Mod, I haven't died since I installed it, so I can't answer that question.

"As for the No Instant Death Mod, I haven't died since I installed it, so I can't answer that question" Well...Some mate using that mod and death for the Fatherland, please? The Walküre are immortal and start patrols from the Walhalla Flotilla.  Have you a solution for the problem with engine sound in FM Interiors? I have the rumble-rumble too high in Control Room, I don´t hear the crew (DBSM mod and Raptor's fixes). I see in your list the SDL of FM Interior eliminated. I need a SDL with normal level sound in control room... Many thanks and best regards. Fitzcarraldo, a poor mortal kaleun

I use Aces' Compatility Mod which has his combined .sdl file for New Interiors and all the other mods for which it provides compatibility... so I just don't bother to enable those other versions with their mods since they'd be overwritten anyway. The only changes I made to the engine sounds were to set Doppler factor to zero and reduce the volume to around 75%, that works for me. I can hear the engines fine inside the boat but they don't drown out everything else.

You could try the playable Type XXIII mod.

 Highlight the entry as shown above, then in the values that you see on the right, change Doppler factor from 100.0 to 0.0 and adjust the volume down if you want. You can play with the volume level until you get something you like. IIRC I turned mine down primarily to keep it from overpowering the gramophone because I like to listen to it when I play and the engines were way too loud for my liking in comparison to all the other ambient sound fx that the music had to compete with. |

Another question (I´m fascinated with your JSGME list...): What X-Men mod is the "mutant environment"? I like to see a screenshot of that, the enviros are my SH3 obsession. Greetings. Fitzcarraldo
