Sonar this looks interesting but the OP could use some more detail on what the mod actually changes, and what it's compatible with - is this a mod for stock SH3 or for GWX3 or what?

Not likely now. :nope:

All of you be lucky I don't carry the Keys to the Brig. :yep:

#1 Rule I have is... Never diss a Modder.

Constructive criticision is fine. And is to be expected.

But to laugh at a persons work is a lame thing to do.

Go easy Contact, mate.

Just a thought, but give the guy a benefit of the doubt at least until he releases his work.

You never know. There is always the possibility that sonar_PL makes a great discovery with fresh eyes, that no one else has.

Let him have his day in the sun. :cool:

Kpt. Lehmann
09-02-09, 03:46 AM
All I'm saying is that its not really a good idea to pour icewater down the neck of a new modder.

You just never know what they might do next.:ping:

Maybe you could encourage first... then criticize if needed.

Just make a nice juicy manual to read and explain all the benefits obtained by your mod.
Looking foward to try out something new.

Graf Paper
09-02-09, 12:43 PM
Looks very promising and well-thought, sonar_PL! :yep:

Every new mod is far from perfect, when it's intitially released, even when you have a whole team of developers working on it. Look how many years it took the Grey Wolves to perfect GWX!

Considering sonar_PL has done this one on his own, it's already shaping up to be good work. Polishing away the rough edges will just take a little longer, but not quite so long as it would if everyone is willing to help when he needs it. The guy has single-handedly built this mod. That's worthy of respect just for the dedication it took to get this far! :yeah:

It's the modders, from the most renowned to the most obscure, with work great or small, that keeps SH3 fresh and thriving well past its expected lifespan. Even if an idea seems stupid or has been done before, you never know where it might lead because every modder is a unique individual with their own way of looking at things.

As a famous example, GWX wouldn't have existed if Lehmann hadn't said to himself, "I can do this differently and possibly better." His own skills at the time were not as refined as they are now but he didn't give up and never took "No" for an answer or let others discourage him. There probably were those fans of RuB and NYGM who didn't appreciate his efforts.

As for "U-Boats: Total War", I'm looking forward to a download link so I can load it up and experience sonar_PL's vision. It just might be the next big thing. :03:

Keep at it and stay strong, sonar_PL! You never know where this path might take you in the future. :up:

Sonar, you hit on some often over looked areas that needed improving.
The interior and periscope dimming is brilliant and that alone is worth getting this mod.
I also like the fog and rain changes.

@Drunken Sailor

Thanks for the link, unfortunately due to my inept knowledge of Polish, I can't seem to d/load the buggers, any help would be great. I find the downloads section fine, but all I see when hitting the U-Boat links is either what seems a link for votes or an html link.

Don't suppose you could upload it to Subsim could you Sonar_PL?

I've tried to follow the instructions for logging on to the Polish website, but I keep going round in circles. It keeps taking me back to the bit where you put in your details. It doesn't like something I'm typing in, but I can't figure out what. :cry:

Or maybe one of the other subsimmers here who has managed to download the file could upload it somewhere else please?

I really want to try this out, it looks awesome :up:

- new rain, well, you can change size of drops and speed :D

- possibility of walking on the board, we can already do that with shift + f2, but if you think walking like in sh5, impossible.

- new units (163), i very much doubt that.

- new abilities of an enemy, well that is possible, just change sensors.dat and sim.cfg which we already have in many other mods.

the more i think about this mod...this sounds like a commercial for new UBOAT game.

other than that..keep up the good work in this mod that is clearly a joke :up:
