its too early for mods but its never too early to start gathering data, models, technical specs, and things like that so you have the resources in place to start building or modding aircraft, ships, harbor craft, mines, debris fields, and whatever.
even though we dont know what will or wont be in sh5 we can get the background data to confirm or correct the data of what is there and be one step ahead in being ready to create whats needed.
you probably have all the data and resources you need because of your gwx work but others dont so you could offer your resources to others if its something you no longer need or want for yourself. and lining up help for your mods is part of getting an early start too.
i would offer my help but i have no clue about 3d modeling or textures or anything like that so im sure i would be useless to you.
i guess im hoping to somehow put together stuff you can use in your efforts for modding sh5

My only resources are 3DSMAX, Photoshop and google....
Thats all need to build models.
So i dont have a stash of anything much, but if someone looking for something in particular I will try to help however i can.
Agreed that for the 3d artists amongst us, the sooner we learn of what the SHV Roster contains - the better.
but (reality check) we wont know the full list until release, when everyone will simply be playing the game
At this point in time I doubt the Devs have even come close to finalizing the roster themselves.
And even if they did its far too early to expect them dicuss details.
In terms of NPC Units, all we can really do is build obscure stuff that the devs probably wont include.
Ill bet that half the stuff I have will be duplicated anyway jsut beacuse they are obvious candidates for a U-boat sim.
No real modding will begin until god know how long after release anyway.
Im no modder but i appreciate that it takes a long time....
Play game
Find bugs in game
Game Patched
Play game some more
and some more
Figure out what is missing?
Explore files & possibilies (experiment)
Start working on mod.
Will take 1-2 years for the level of modding to reach the standards we have now for SH3 and Sh4.
