1. SH4 has a lot more to offer than just graphics. The way the campaign files are structured is much more advanced, and allows for many more ships to be added without adding to the loading times. That may mean little, but it means a lot to me personally.
2. Since I was the one who used the phrase "reinventing the wheel" I would like to point out that it was not in reference to a particular GUI, but to the fact that some people were saying that they could somehow put SH4 water into SH3. Perhaps that is possible, but a lot of the graphics are about the water. Since SH4 is basically SH3 with better graphics, why bother to put SH4 graphics into SH3? SH5 is another story. Until ships and things can be ported into SH5, why bother? I personally think SH4 is the perfect compromise, being essentially an improved SH3.
My "reinventing the wheel" comment was about the water, nothing more.

about
:
1. there are mods which are 'cutting' the campaign to parts (Mediteranean or indian or ...etc) and are reducing drasticly the loading times . Mediteranean is loading at 1,5 minute on my pc....i can live with that is not big deal at all.
2. if you read carefully my message ,you will figure out that graphics comes second to my list. about the water ...all i am saying is that i like it (don't believe that is 'amazing' though ...just good.when it is moving is totally unrealistic ) and IF it would be possible to be imported to sh3 will be very good .but if this never happened...then again this is fine with me...i can live with sh3's water too ...water,for me, is not a serious criterion for choosing platform.
why bother with sh5 ? exactly becuase for the reasons you are vote sh4 . tools are on the way ...maybe less than a year and import will start .will sh4 HAHD be ready by now for fans to enjoy ? no...and all will turn to sh5 .
ps: ok with the comment ...i misjudjed
. i am asking sorry about it.
