I don't have SH4 because I want the beta testing to be completed and it is obviously not. That and I have been busy with MAW project but my part is done for a couple weeks and for the first time in a long time I started a GWX career.
However, I was wondering with these nice new models in SH4 can any be dropped into SH3???? the merchants reflagged would be nice to add and a few warships would not be bad either.

yes no, Ja Nicht?

it is possible but I do not know how. There is a Chinese SHIV fan who has added several SHIV warships to SH3; unfortunately I don't remember this guy's name. I do know that AG124 did some SH3 merchant conversions for SH4, so you might want to PM him and see if he knows how the opposite process works.

Semi - OT: You're on the MAW design team? :up: That's one great looking mod. I originally bought CFS3 just to play "Over Flanders Fields"; shortly afterwards I found out there was another mega-mod in the works.

I just found it and I may have to dust off the old cfs3 box again!:yep:
The best ww2 flightsim for me had been EAW, so far nothing has gotten close, I have tried IL2 with pacific fighters etc, BOB2 (good but only single play), and cfs3.:D
Thanks for that, will keep a watch.:up:

It is possible and has been done already. But some hex editing is needed because the wakes and damages do not show up ingame by just copying the files to SHIII. I´ve did some, but won´t publish the complete ship folders for some legal matters that have been discussed several times troughout the forum. The only thing I would provide is the adjusted files, thus staying on the legal side as only SHIV users could make use of them.

Regards,

You may want to have a look here. Even if you don't speak German you get the drift which ships are already available and where.

I am also listed in the OFF credits but I did less than the credits make out. However, Mark and I run stuff by each other when needed he is one talented guy.
Would you believe I just got OFF2 last week. Shot down a Kraut on my first patrol, waiting for confirmation, I love that idea and wish we had it in SH
MAW will release in Beta form on June 10th, the day Italy declared war. Making such a huge stand alone project is daunting. So many guys got tired after over 2 years of work and we finally decided to release a beta and add the remaining first chapter for 1940-41. Then we will do 1942, an so on.
The FMs in this are by far the most realistic WWII done to date by anyone. However, that creates a frustrating problem. the AI do not fly a plane based on that plane's characteristics so when AI fly a FW-190 like it is a Spitfire the become easier than would have in real life.
We have, very late, found a neat fix but because of this I did not devout the time to missions for planes that did not balance with ai vs ai like I would have so there will be many large mission sets that will follow. I have done a lot of anal research and whine about historical accuracy there like I have here but keep finding new stuff forever reminding me of how little I truly know.

HMS Penelope in Malta receiving greeting from Ju88As. Our ship builder, Greg law sent Serg some of his German ships to convert to SH3. Notice Greg's County class CA in the shadows. I sent some screens of SH3 explosions to Master Fox in Israel to see if we could add some streaking to the explosions. He calls himself Fox, master was something others labeled him! The above gun smoke and tracer trails were his as well

Heh, the weird part, that many SH4 players wanted SH3 models to be ported to SH4 (and there are lots of ports and some big packs with many models in it)... Oh boy... :roll:

Well, after getting the Maya I had to get a bunch more Pacific ships even though they have no use in SH3, just too nice not to look at in the library.
Thanks for the links:up:
