What will first mod be?

bert8for3 · 03-09-07, 06:59 AM

Looking at the screenshots which all show small dials, I'll say a dials-mod.

I sure hope the first mod will change this awfully looking icon and change it into a more realistic map marker or note.

The dials expand when you put the curser on them dont they . :hmm:

I think its a safe bet that my very first mod for SH4 will be a Modders Fast Loading mod.

Skins for merchant ships.

Yes they do - no need for that mod.

Agreed. It looks like the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

To be honest the game is looking fantastic

and I'm struggling to think of a MOD, but I'll give'er a go. I think the first MOD should be the abillity do drive each engine independently (if not already a feature) and that includes being able to run the electrics on the surface. That or sort the flags out, get 'em blowing in the same direction as the wind etc.

I have a feeling the first mod out of the gate will be a pink sub skin.

With expanding dials (excellent), I'll go with this too. It just detracts from a great-looking map/chart.

Probably not the first mod, if it's at all possible, but I wonder if the SH3 models can be brought into SHIV so it's possible to have one game engine with the ability to play the Atlantic or the Pacific.

As stated by others they DO expand. This is what UBI wrote on the official site:

The resizing of items (for the dials in the HUD) is used to provide more information to the player when is needed. When changing the submarine’s course, the dial increases in size to clearly see the bearings written on it. This is even more useful when playing in HD resolutions:

I'd actually quite like a mod to rename my crew. I'm sure that will be fairly easy. Probably.

I read that skins/textures can be edited and saved but that extra units can not be added.
