Default A question for the SH3/SH4 modders

Hi to one and all,

I havnt been around for a while, I just wanted to ask if there have been any developments re GWX the next version

Or

The guys who were trying to mod SH3 to SH4

I cant play SH4 cos its ...err... not very interesting, and I cant play SH3 cos the graphics dont measure up to SH4. Please no flame wars, its just my opionion, and its just my question I mean no offence to any one.

So I'm waiting till one or the other of the above mods come to fruition any news?

Graphics in GWX are excellent, gameplay is superb

Graphics in SH4 are amazing, sadly gameplay still needs some work, but the game is slowly getting better, some good mods out as well.

Can't think of a better time to be a Kaleun or Captain

Just some thoughts.

Default Thanks for your reply

And thanks for not getting into the dumb Atlantic versus Pacific argument, its all horses for coarses, so thanks!

What I'm after is a kind of alert as to either the next GWX version as it will no doubt include all the latest and best SH3 mods, I have not been around for a while and have lost track of developments.

I was also hoping for an update from the team who were tying to mod SH4 so you could play Atlantic, or SH3 so you could placy Pacific, I'm curious to know if there has been any progress

GWX version 1.04 for SH3 is under construction.

We are keeping the details close to the cuff though for the time being.

Default Wow service or what

In that case sir I shall continue other projects until the next incarnation of GWX

Two small questions which may be ignored, answered or at least perhaps provide a hint

Number 1 will GWX1.04 include the open hatch mods and the amazing IAMBECOMELIFE merchant skins

Will the next GWX involve any aspect or content c/- SH4

Can you give a rough ETA, 1 month, 2 month 3 month etc

Thank you once again for helping to keep these games worthwhile, I am happy to donate if any of you have thought of some recouping some costs

I count 4 questions.

Using content from SH4 will not happen. It's perfectly acceptable, if you own both SH3 & SH4, to use pieces in each game on your own PC but SH4 content can not be distributed as part of a free package for SH3.

That is not to say that you can't use ideas from SH4 and tailor them for SH3 but there will never be SH4 files copied directly over to SH3/GWX.

I don't know if this is a legal issue or not. I know that as I'm not an owner of SH4, I should not be in possesion of any SH4 file, however they came to me.

Time Scale - the GWX team has set it's own deadlines purely for developmental reasons. Not having a deadline means things can 'drag on' indefinately. However, I'm sure that when the time is right a statement will come from the team. In the past the dev team has stated that only when the files are stable and fully tested will a release be issued.

The remaining questions - I believe Kpt has commented about content that might or might not be included and that it will remain a closely guarded secret.

For now Kaleuns, continue to sink those ships.

Is the Dev team open to suggestions? It'd be nice to have the orange marker back as an option; to use it or not, as in the original..

The link took me to FileFront-your page(s) there. After that I got confused:hmm:...
Am I supposed to register, get a password, etc., and then go to the Community tab to enter my request/suggestion there about the orange marker option?

Scroll down the list of files on Jimbuna's page and you will find a link for Umark.tga.

I'll let Jim tell you where to put it.
