man that would be great. I think SH4 would be a great theater for a master and commander mod, and I'd be prepared to put time into it.

The concept of lone frigate operations works well with the SH system, but the problem for a mod conversion is that the effect of wind doesn't appear to be properly modelled on the game and therefore you'd find it difficult to move your ship in an authentic way

too bad, and i don't know of any other games that specifically captures that sort of isolated age-of-sail experience.

EDIT: And welcome to SUBSIM pupuplader
