This is one of the most original mods I have ever seen

I wonder if a Minelayer could be made... (Anyone ever tried making Torpedoes with 0 speed?)

[gimpy117]

nice....i think this would challenge the most seasoned players.

doing re-supply and insertion missions with only a deck gun and a flak gun or two is difficult....and staying alive when zeros and the like are on your tail is even more difficult. and just wait till you have a sub on your tail!

first one to get a kill with her gets a pat on the back !

and i guess there's no deck gun....could we have one?

Cool! Now it's hard to run out of fuel with this...:rotfl:
Nice mod, really. if we only could create missions like "replenish subarine USS *submarine_name* (coordinates)".. maybe one day we will..

It's good to see how this game is getting better with all the mods this community is creating

Good job boys, and THANKS!

any chance of an american BB (1.4?) or cruiser to counter the 1.5 panzershiffe?

Great job. Care to put together a tutorial on how you did this? I have some modelling skills and with the release of S3D, adding units seems a lot easier.

Good job! Nice change of pace!

Hello
Thanks
With SH3, if you fired on non enemy ship you was enemy to that nation for 24H.
I wonder if same thing is true also for SH4, if so then German raider is possible.
You sail under false flag. say American then sink US ship. and run for 24H.
Maybe if you add a gun or two one can test it with this ship, what do you think
is it possible.:hmm: Hmmm i will test this with us sub ,sink us merchant and see what happens.

It's a friggin Tanker, It's not supposed to shoot at anything...

[Mikhayl]

Hi CvK, yes it may be possible, if you set British & US as neutral. I have a playable commerce raider almost ready too but I didn't try that yet :hmm:

@Lancerr : I'm affraid the best tutorial for that would be to inspect the files using S3D and compare with stock playable sub & stock AI merchies. The ship itself took me about an afternoon and a few hours this morning to finish, but writing a tuto would take me ages for sure. Plus it's rather slappy, not everything works as it should for a "perfect" surface ship (no repair for example)

Maybe I'll do another German small freighter too, that's useless but fun to do & the SH4 merchies look really cool

Man I gotta tell ys this is one of the coolest mods, thank you!!, I have a issue though... every time I try for an external viw it locks up my whole computer, not just the game. I have to reboot everytime.

[Mikhayl]

That's pretty strange, the cameras files I used is the stock one (I think, I have a lot of them ), the only change is the free deck view & some minor tweaks to the binoc. Try to disable the mod, delete the "library" folder, then re-enable and retry :hmm:

[Captain von Keldunk]

Hello
"commerce raider almost ready " good news
To Hamm i used external free cam and no problems.
Tried to run supplies to formosa but jap convoy sunkt The good ship Orion.
