Upgrades!!!!!

Hey all, just wondering if anyone is aware of when we might see some model upgrades fro DW, and or other workable platforms.

Cheers,

OK, so feeling very stupid now after reading the 500 pages of reply's to the petition post. I've become very good at holding my breath, a while longer won't hurt. I find taking a month or two off from the game helps, then you can attack it again with vigor!

Simply .. there is one major mod for DW, caled LWAMI (by main authors Luftwolf & Amizaur). It has many new models and other realism mods.

But it has no new playable ships, since SCS (DW's author) banned it and we here want to be friends with them. I've heard there is some rogue group which does some such mods anyway but I didn't see the mods.

Actually a person (or persons ) I don't remeber exactly, are working with Luftwolf to import into DW the whole SCX database, comprising the models of all the units.
We just have to be a little bit more patient.
But I think that being SCS customers we already have patience in our bloodstream. :p
Of coure, the playable units will always be what we have right now. :(

TLAM Strike is working on including the models from SCX into the LwAmi mod and expanding the database, after which Luftwolf will do some advanced stuff with LwAmi (Adv. Torp Control and such). Till now the main focus was to fix still existing bugs and anomalies with LwAmi (where possible). Since Luftwolf has to wait for TLAM to finish his work before he can continue it might take some time before we see the next version of the LwAmi mod (which incidentally will be v4.0). Another factor might be that Lw is spending to much time on his XBox 360 (shame on you - LOL).

Arghh no not the xbox 360. :p
Sooner or later they all melt down. :rotfl:
Even Microsoft officialy recognised that all the boxes produced up until now are defective. :damn:
As good as the games are, I just can't justify getting an xbox 360 because by principle I'm against having to pay to play multiplayer games (the exception being mmorpgs of course).
Long live the PC. :rock:

Yes we (me and another) are working on converting the DBs over. Once we sort out a few things it should go smooth assuming I don't get overly distracted by Steel Pathers Main Battle Tank and the EV Firefly project.

Ok, well that sounds promising. Hmm not sure what it all means though. I've got a mod that allows me access to the objects database of sorts, where you can switch around the weapons systems on different models, increase weapons speed, add new sensors and what not, I guess thats ok, but not the access i'm used to, ha, being greedy now.

The one thing that gets me and it's not the lack of playable models, is the water. That really gets at me, especially when i've been spending so much time in VS, where the gradual water mod is amazing and the white caps on the swell lines is fantastic.

I guess I always come back to DW cause of the engine and game play.
