Without looking at Rowis work to judge
Not one conversion from SH4 has been right so far
All have problems with wakes and damage so its not an EASY job to do

Well 1 ship was done right after a LOT of work done to it to get it that way ;)

I see no need to import them when Iambecomes merchant pack numbers 50 plus and GWX 1.04 will also add new merchants

And these ships are built for SH3

Most systems wont be able to handle the load times

Still - am not one to stop someone from working so carry on

:rotfl:

GWX will probably include Iambecomes ships... But who works on these new merchants you're speaking about ? :hmm:

:huh: !

Ah I cant say too much Alex

Though AG124 and Ichneumon are both capable ship builders
As is Privateer

:rotfl:

And no GWX doesnt have Iambecomes merchants

:88) hahaha ! Thanks, mate... ;)

But... In case we want to use this mod playing GWX, all these new merchants ships will need to be included one by one in the campaign files... I hope Iambecomelife will let you GWX dev team use his merchantpack, in order to have a realistic traffic of more than 50 new ships in this great expansion. *praying http://yelims3.free.fr/Jesuis/Precheur.gif*

I have tried to make the GWX campaign files as generic as I can

Any new merchant should be seen with no additional work needed

Without seeing Iambecomes files I cant say whether that will be the case as he has designated skins etc

The only thing needed to GWX the merchants is really the damage model and any naming changes

Not sure of the naming convention he is using but experience has shown that it affects spawning rates

FI the Ammunition ship was NAMM so SH3 seemed to pick this ship a lot more than say NKLS

Similary I found Sergs NACG spawned a lot more too

Ideally names should be kept to NK for merchants
NO for oil tankers

Aw... Then, in case this mod is included in GWX, perhaps spawning rates of some ships will have to be reduced or increased changing their name... :hmm:

Great to see some more ships in SH3 but the thing that gets me with these SH4 ships are the ship paint jobs are just plain tonk in SH4. someone needs to give them a new paint job. Not taking anything away from what people have done porting them back from SH4 more than i could ever do.

Easier to rename the ships than adjust spawning rates
Esp as the entries are generic so all ships will be affected by the change

Will be able to gauge better when released

Ok !
Thanks for the talk BBW ;) :up:
Now, we just have to wait for the release ! :ping:

EDIT: I remember that Molke had converted a lot of american ships as well, yet his "american" directory is empty. Ah well. Japs will be enough for now.
