Trade Subs For Battleships

[Commander Baker]

I have an idea about a mod i think would be cool for SH4 and or SH3 but anyway i would do it myself but my modding skills are like a fish tryin to breathe outta water ( I cant mod) Anyway It would basically be a total conversion of the game but a neat project for sombody to work on. Ny idea is to instead of Subs (subs optional) but be able to have full control of say a fletcher class destroyer or a Iowa Class Battleship or anything in between. When i say full control i mean like you have with the subs in stick version. Be able to control depth charges, main turrets, AA guns (AI would be necesary all guns could shoot in the players direction) All that good stuff but just my thoughts tell me what you think and sorry if i mispelled anything i am tired.

Theres already one in SH3, the playable bismarck and hipper but Im not sure about SH4 yet.

please tell me you have a link to that mod!! I've been waiting for a naval ship game for a long time (and no, Ship Sim 2006 don't cut it).

[wetwarev7]

Link please!!!!! I'd like to try a battleship in SH3 as well.

Its an ok mod the model isnt very accurate and all you can do is fire the main guns your screwed if an aircraft comes i want one that has full modeling and actual ship size of an iowa with manable AAA guns and the whole 9 yards.

email ubisoft your request and see what they think, it never hurts to ask.

if they have a big enough market wanting to buy something they will produce it.

after all, thats how we got SH4.

What is it? How about a link....:D

sheesh...

Wow, I can't believe nobody has mentioned that his request is covered by doing an updated Destroyer Command.

Remember that lovely little companion game to SH2? I for one LOVE the idea of surface warfare, and would just go nuts if UBI did a companion/stand-alone for SH4 like the old Destroyer Command/SH2. Could you imagine the battle lines being drawn on the multi-player servers?

If the cross-game link worked out ok, the obvious high quality detail and imersion that SH4 brings to the table would be glorious in a new surface game. Talk about creating the end all of WW2 sims.... wow! I'll add this to my evening prayers. :)

Well I did a google on that game and checked it out but cant really decide if its worth getting..:)

[MacArthur]

Well, it's kind of old now. And if memory serves, it never worked quite right with SH2. Now, that being said, at the time I had no idea of modders, and just played through a few of the missions and it dropped off my playlist. It had some bugs at the time that made it a bear to get through as some of the missions were hosed up and you couldn't really hook up with SH2. Wich made me scratch my head as it was a HUGE part of marketing the game and an even BIGGER feature to have overlooked at release.

I haven't really looked back to see if the modding wizards fixed it all, but I did download a mission fix and the patch that made it work with SH2, but have never tried it out. Life seems to keep getting in the way of that sort of thing. And now they distract me with the likes of SH4!!!! :D

It should be cheap at this point, so give it a go. Not sure about how it will act on more modern machines with the newer OS's

I think the idea has merit and marktability, and to think of the control, visual splendor, and flexability of a new, updated, and linked game.... Wow.
