Danger From the Deep!

This is so awesome I had to come back just to share this.

http://dangerdeep.sourceforge.net/

The graphics seem to rival that of SH3 and it's completely Open Source (tm)! While there is no career mode and the physics are still somewhat simplistic, there is a _lot_ of potential here!

Of course, you have to know or learn C++ to contribute code. But just about anyone can playtest and contribute ideas, missions, and thoughts on realism.

I think I'm going to download it to give it a whirl. (I run Debian GNU/Linux, but it appears to play under Windows, too!)

And how many freeware mods has this guy stolen, you all gonna bang him too?

Well I dont think it can match SH3, so I won't bother downloading it. But it's probably great for those who wants to shoot a torpedo and then puts it away.

I love Open Source.

Give it a few years and who knows.

It's a great game that deserves support.

Yes, it is getting better and better. Developers seem to have a lot of courage. That is really good.

I have been following the development of this game for about a year now, but I can't get the latest version to work on my laptop (video driver issue

). Still, it is a great project that is worth following and supporting. Looks like they are in need of developers with knowledge of C++ though - if I could help them, I would contribute but I can't. Maybe someone out there would lend a hand though.:hmm:

Wow, looks pretty nice! Thanks for finding it, something to keep my eye on.
