U Boat Atlantic Campaign?

[TDK1044]

When 1.5 was announced, my impression was that it would be at least six months, and probably a lot longer, before we had a full U Boat Atlantic campaign available within Silent Hunter 4.

So how far along is an Atlantic campaign? Personally, playing with a U Boat in the Indian Ocean is of no interest to me, but if we're anywhere near getting the immersion that the GWX guys and others created in the Atlantic in SH3 then that is an exciting proposition.

Anyone have an overview of this? I've been too busy assembling new furniture and painting walls to be around here much lately.

The only thing I'm allowed to tell you is to actually enjoy the stock U-Boote missions version or Lurker's operation Monsun mod, cause nothing from us will come before sometime next year...
Definately, I'm afraid.

There will be Atlantic mods out there before GWX 4
I have no doubt about that

We intend to convert everything to SH4 standards
Not just import over so it works

The SH4 engine is much better than its older SH3 brother so would be a shame to waste those improvements
But that takes time

Similary the campaign will be rewritten to make use of the SH4 campaign loading system
Again takes time

There is a Med mod released or just about to be released by Xantrokoles

And of course Lurker Op Monsoon which also has Atlantic missions during Drum beat too

Research Operation Monsun. If you see a ship or a convoy it's because it was there at that date. No randomly generated enemy ship movement! It's well worth checking out and is a quality mod.

I`m here and waiting.

Well. on the outside of the cereal box it came in is says, "No random ship movements. Every" .....blah, blah, blah. You sure you didn't just shake it too hard?:rotfl:

Waiting and hope for beauty Atlantic,mod.

I thought Operation Monsun already had some Atlantic content? Have not been keeping up here for a while, but from a quick browse, it looks like Lurker has added more and more content. Considering he is no stranger to creating Atlantic theatre operations, I wouldn't be surprised if OM develops into something bigger over time. There already appears to be a number of previously SH3 only modders enjoying the SH4 engine and contributing many of the building block, that will bring this threads request closer.

(I'm not prodding you Lurker :p)

Just 2 cents.... splitting the MOD forums into PTO and U-Boat will slow anything in this department. No idea what the fighting has been here, but it's really sad to see.

Constructive and courteous communication will speed all your dreams.

...or Lurker's Operation Drumbeat campaigns, or his Type II career in the North Sea, or his Type II career in the Black Sea, or his Type XXIII campaigns...

Current 1.5 U-boat campaigns are hardly limited to the Indian Ocean, stock or otherwise.

Lurkers work is astonishing. DL and go on patrol ASAP, you will not be disappointed.

Its very well done and supported.
