The Sonanalyst website suggests more of a space simulator under development, though still involved with USN on interfaces.
More and more I think, that Sonalysts potential new title based on the new engine would be rather more Fleet Command 2 than DW2. And that is fine.

I wish though meanwhile DW would be made more open to modding in its current state by making information and help about 3d limits, particle system editor, terrain file formats (compression), etc. available to the community.

That would possibly strengthen and bring more attention to the DW corner vs. CW in preparation and wait for the new title.

Looks pretty good.

I'll be honest, the graphics are pretty lacking and that's kind of a disappointment but if its just as fun as DW then i am looking forward to all the new toys we get to play with.

The aircraft controls look a little basic but i guess it will be fleshed out later? I hope its not left as an afterthought

In any case my credit card is ready!

NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT FOR A NEW GAME, unless you're living in 1996.

These are promo vids for 688I from back in the day.

Sub Command also had some additional audio cues too, like one of the sailors saying "Decks awash" when the sub dives.

To be fair, Sonalyst(s) has always acted more like a developer ,who are mainly interested in Gov't contracts with games as a kind of a side-line.

They always partnered with a publisher in the past to handle things like distribution, packaging, and advertising. Putting the old CDs in the stores wasn't really their thing.

So, its possible they are looking for a publisher and saying "Here's what we can code for you if the terms are right". Or, we might be seeing them sending a pitch to the DoD with a consumer game as a fall back?



I'm still keeping my fingers crossed, but I don't think we'll see anything until they find the right publisher.

Well, the Videos are form the new Sonalyst product called Sim Engine II which is for Military use only, its basically not a game, its is a Viewer for DIS Simulations.

Its also capable to simulate complete Warships with Statios like Bridge and CIC and there are no plans for a commercial release currently.

In its currenty state, its looks ok, but its still a bit slow and needs much more coding.
