"What do you know about Silent Hunter?"

[Onkel Neal]

"What do you know about Silent Hunter?"

The first time I was asked this question it was in the summer of 2002. The answer was quite simple: nothing. But that’s why Google is great. One hour later I was already aware of what the Silent Hunter brand represents. Of course the main source of information was Subsim.com. I was supposed to give an answer if we should start a development on this brand...


The Subsim Special Project. Announcement coming... :ping:

Part II


The first document we got for SH3 was a wish list from the previous developers. On top of this list was an assumption: "User controls Pacific Theater US submarines only." Well, this was not our choice. I mean, it probably it was a logical decision to alternate the theaters but not for us. We were really fresh and when we started the discussions internally our assumptions were: the game should be named Silent Hunter III and it should be with submarines. There were even discussions about a WWI version!

[Hylander_1314]

I've had the original SH since the old Packard Bell 486 DX2 days, and played the hell out of it with all expansion packs. I was able to get it to kinda work on the P3, but video and audio were a pain to get working right.

I've done the SH on WinXp thing until I discovered SHIII, which has been my favorite for about a year now. Haven't done much flyin' because of this one. And I really like WWII flight sims.

[mountainmanUK]

well........4 days of "teasing", anything new on the "Announcement"?

Previous developers ? :o

< what do you know about silent hunter ? >

Tankers go up really nice when put six torpedos into them.

So what do I win?

[bookworm_020]

I tried to run it, but never got it to work!:damn::damn::damn::damn:

[Hybris]

Dumb question Run what?

[stabiz]

Probably GWXI, the new expansion by X1.

[Hybris]

Man I need to get that

[bookworm_020]

I never got Silent Hunter (SHI) to run. I've never used GW or any super mods yet, I'm still having too much fun with the vanilla stock game (with extra ships, aircraft, and a couple of extra mods here and there to add to the experience):up:

[U-snafu]

I got into Silent hunter with the current sh3 incarnation so I know next to nothing about the original--but onkel neal's post has now piqued my interest.

Has the original been licensed to subsim and neal & gang heading into development waters with an updated version??

If that is anywhere close to the mark--do I win anything?:lol:

[Respenus]

Probably GWXI, the new expansion by X1.

:stare: I thought it was forbiden to speak that name outloud around this Forums!

Man I need to get that

Better not, or Gizzmoe will have your account for dinner. :/\\x:

[Hybris]

Well then I'll hold on that idea

[Onkel Neal]

well........4 days of "teasing", anything new on the "Announcement"?

Yes, in a week or so. As you know, Subsim is approaching a mighty milestone... and we're preparing a special project to celebrate.

[Hybris]

Homing Photon Torpedos!

We began as a bunch of kids, sleeping in an old abandoned beach house, eating sardines, cheese, and crackers, playing Wolfpack on a caseless Commodore 64 we got from a pawn shop, waiting for our big break.

Was this true ? :o
