Destroyer Command - Still a Good Naval Sims -

We put a lot of work into both of the games back in the day. Ultimately it was some hardcoded issues that doomed it from being as good as it could have been. The "red triangle" that you literally couldn't get rid of, the limited view range that prevented historical engagement ranges for Battleships, stability problems, and more. But, Sergbuto and others managed to hex-edit a bunch of models to have flags, swap turrets and structures, and even made a passable HMS Hood using the Nagato. I might boot it up again but I'd probably have to do a retro build to get it to work.
