reliable 'split in half' ship damage feature that exsists in stock, and changes tot he ships damage model that prevents torpedoes hitting the same area of the ship multiple times from casuing anything other than flodding in that area to become fast. This creates more uncertanty in the way a ship will sink and how fast and how many hits. Plus, the deck gun cannot be simply aimed at one spot on the ship and repeatedly fired. You must actualy damage the ship at or below the waterline in a manner that actualy causes flooding, and large merchants may required dozens of shells. Small arms fire wont damage things larger than small coastals like tugs, as was historicly correct. Additionaly, a new sub damage model has been added which allows your sub and crew to incur negative effects as the result of enemy fire as light as 20mm. This will make surface assults on armed merchants as small as fishing boats and challenging of aircraft to carry more risk than stock. Other features include clickable interiors, new uniforms, visual and sensor adjustments, a new AI, revised ship rosters and new weapon sounds for surface guns. Additionaly, repairs to systems seriously damaged (but not destroyed) which makes more sense, as some types of repairable damage was not nessecarily repairable at sea.

Silent Hunter 3 Super Mods
- There are a few other fan sites that offer links to download the mods as well. I know that there is a popular Reality mod which fixes some of the 'arcade elements' not tuned to realism in Silent Hunter III. There are also several mods that add more military warships, and merchant ships.
- UPDATE: Journey's End for The Grey Wolves Mod Team. Building on the success of our expansion packs for 'Silent Hunter 3', in early 2009 the team began creating the next installment in the GWX series: GWX4, a freeware expansion pack for 'Silent Hunter 4: U-boat Missions'.
