which we will follow until we get into open water.Īnother nice feature, shared with some other recent mods, is the addition of animated water streams from the holes in the boats' free-flooding casings. The next pics show the 'crew on deck' feature and harbour traffic, either moored like the destroyer. Skins are higher resolution and detail is much better. and this shows the conning tower detail, albeit it's a larger Type IX. This is one of the OneAlex, GUC-based Type VIIs. Nice, but the skin is relatively low-resolution and some details are simplified, like the insulators and tensioners on the jumping wire Silent Hunter 3 Commander (SH3C), optional but regarded by many as a must-have utility for the sim.Īs an indication, this is a typical stock boat, a Type VII in this case . Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME), plus a set of submods including a range of skins for Type VII and IX U-boats an already-inbuilt widescreen mod so it's 1920x1080 compatible out of the box many other improvements, including better crew and uniform textures the German U-Boat Compilation mod (GUC) which greatly improves the boats themselves, including enabling off-duty crew to be assembled on deck in harbour, the battle flag flown or taken down, and victory pennants to be flown from your periscope on return the features of the GWX mod, including harbour traffic You may need to use a utility called Multi SH3 to create the dedicated subfolder it needs in 'My Documents' for career files but that can also be easily created manually eg 'My documents/SH3' if you unzip the mod to its default folder. While nominally a mod, it's self-contained and fully functional when unzipped - it doesn't need enabled or installed onto an existing installation.
This comes as a compressed file of just over three meg and unzips to under nine. You can see the mod's intro video here - the download link is in its description: Silent Hunter 3 - GWX Onealex Edition - YouTube Now available is a comprehensive further development of GWX - the OneAlex Edition. One such, and possibly the most popular, is the Grey Wolves Expansion 3 (aka GWX) whose Gold edition is what I've been playing until very recently. Notably, as every SH3 aficionado will know, there's a number of mega-mods available which provide a single major overhaul, often with optional submods included. And can be much improved by the huge number of user-made mods available for it (many of which you can find in the Doentiz Elite Flotilla mediafire SH3 archive ). Arguably (and I'd be one of those arguing it) it's still far the best U-boat simulation. SH3 got justifiably rave reviews when first released in 2005. A new standalone mega-mod that brings all that's best to Silent Hunter 3
