[REQ] First mod collection?

Safe-Keeper · 03-10-10, 04:43 PM

I know the game hasn't been out long, but already we've got an impressive array of mods big and small. So I was wondering if anyone was considering going through the effort of obtaining permissions from modders and putting a nice collection of fixes and whatnot into a kind of "community patch" or "tweak package" which could then be downloaded and installed as a single mod?

Things I'm thinking about include:

Bugs fixed so far (no hydrophone contacts while surfaced, etc.)
Balancing (realistic battery recharge times, stronger torpedoes, etc.)
Game functionality (torpedo spread angle dials, tweaked keyboard layout, new keyboard commands, etc.)
Graphics (gun sounds, funnel smoke, etc.)
Realism (four men on bridge, no eye patch on the Pirate, fixed flags as an option install, etc.)

Any of my very minor additions are free to be used as long as a small text with credit is given ;]

Maybe we should wait for the next patch before putting together a package of Mods or a SuperMod ? Rumour has it a Patch'll be released this weekend.

Personally, I think it's premature. We barely know what we're doing. Mods are changing frequently and, really, there just ain't that many mods yet.

For about 5 minutes i thought about releasing another FTT styled mod, but thought better of it. Thats how a supermod got started in SH4, and i am not here to do that again. I did release two parts of it as single mods, but that's it. (That and im really on the fence with SH5 , being REALLY PO'ed about the DRM connectivlity)

edit: But yeah, bit premature. You don't want to have to pick apart alot of files looking for patch changes, it's not fun.
