But has anybody Made any new 3D Ships for SH4 ?
I have asked this before but nobody has steped forward and helped me to
Learn how to search for such things in the Forum
So I must ask this yet again
Please let me know if you know of any new Ships
and also if someone can show me how to Search for things here in the Forum
well , that would be nice
Thank you

Search? Here?
:rotfl:
Part of the problem is that this particular search function doesn't recognize words of three letters or less, so '3D' is right out. You might try Advanced Search and type in 'Ship Models', but the best bet is to go to Google instead, type in everything you can think of and then at the bottom where it says "Search within a site or domain:" type in ' www.subsim.com (http://www.subsim.com) .' Sorry to be vague where ship models are concerned, but I can't run SH4 so I don't keep up with some of the development.

I'm not sure if the search function in subsim is similar to Google-type searches or I just got lucky.
Anyhow, the following may be obvious but I've been surprised before by people not knowing how to best use search engines, so take this for what it's worth.
If you put your key words in quotes such as "torpedo speed" (with the quotations marks) then the search engine will look for that specific phrase (i.e. every occurence of the phrase torpedo speed). If on the other hand you type torpedo +speed (no quotation marks and a plus sign next to the word speed) then the search engine will look for every occurence of the word torpedo plus the occurence of the word speed in the same article (but the words may appear separately within the same article). There are various ways to use search engines, it takes a bit of practice.
Conversely you type in the word 'torp' (without quotes) and you should get every occurrence of words beginning with the first four letters t o r p (torpedo, torpedos, torpedoe, torpedoes, torpex etc ad naus). This, however, doesn't work with all search engines so you'll have to experiment. There is built-in assistance within the Advanced search feature of subsim.
