slow your roll their chief.. that was in no way insulting to either of them

repeats from the past which we have seen before that only ends up hurting
the ones who enjoy playing Team Work Made Mods.

I am Sure those 2 are infact More Mature then that and would make
for a Very Good Team.

just something they would have to be on the same page with & take into
consideration is all... They know what I mean

I think you need to slow down. Why rush the supermod??

As Steve pointed out, rushing a creation like this gives you unwanted results.

Let our Modders take their time and release a final (or one that at least their happy with to leave alone for a week) and then start putting pieces together.

As for downloading multiple versions, my computer only has limited amount of Data. And while I can just delete the older files, I don't like having to spend more time optimizing and downloading mods then actually playing the game.

As many have pointed out, both for the mega-mod and the game.

Give it time Or we will end up with a craptacular mega-mod that will render the game unstable and/or unplayable and we will lose even more audience members

Edit: Also, while I'm at it, if you really want to roll up a quick mega-mod than man-up yourself and do it, go around and ask for permission, etc. But do it yourself. Otherwise, if you sit around telling modders to set up a Mega-Mod while they're still perfecting their masterpieces, you won't get what you want..

Also, in regards to choosing which UI Mod to use.. I personally would go with TDWs (sorry Reaper.. I never tried yours yet..) But then again, like SH4, you can have multiple Mega-Mods which cater to different people (ala TMO and RFB).

Finally, I think for a Mega-Mod to happen, we need to fix more then the Game Cosmetics and Basic Functions. We need to peel into the scripting and campaign scripts to create a realistic and/or fun campaign (again ala TMO or RFB) and get that on the table to make a Mega-Mod feasible. (on a side note, I know that Lurker was talking about doing RUB, but now that Duci is hanging around the forums, [sorry don't know if he has the game..] maybe he could bounce some ideas with a few good scripters and get something going. His TMO of SH4 is a masterpiece, itd be great if we could get something similar in SH5.) Otherwise, you basically just have a bunch of cosmetic fixes and aestetics rolled into a package that I could do myself..

Insulting to either of them? Why do you speak as if there are only 2 modders? You are probably referring to TDW and reaper7, and yes, they have both done a tremendous amount of work. But, in case you have not realized, there are a lot more than just those two. What about all the work that Sober, Conus00, W_clear, and many others have done. 2 contributors would go insane trying to do everything needed for a super mod.

Edit: Oh yeah, and a big amen to what Krauter said!

there are more modders than just two working on SH5. I know there are a whole lot more than 2 And they have made great contributions to SH5 also

yes, exactly my point!


I have not tried them all due to the simple fact that once
my brain starts to hurt I start deleting & Un installing..

reading threw all the endless requirements, or having to decide between
this & that (or) going in like a surgeon myself... YuK

Hopefully someone Soon will put us something together ..
Something that works, tested, Simple Mindedly Easy to figure out,
& did I mention

Fun?

& no steve I will nOt WAIT lol

It is far too early for a "supermod". You're missing some critical things like the full war, different types of subs, expanded campaign, historical items/places, shipping. Most of this stuff has either just begun work or hasn't even been worked on yet.

A UI/AI/Env only supermod, which is essentially what you'd get with current mods, would hardly be a "supermod".

good point

In my opinion, we should discuss this after xmas. Because I think, our friendly ubi-claus will send us the missing 2 years and boats as a pretty, buggy and not so cheaply (I think ~39 €) xmas-gift (AddOn).

Final patch inclusive.

Ok,
Paco.

I would like a super mod that only deals with the scripts, and AI, nothing more. Something like kylania said, "full war, different types of subs, expanded campaign, historical items", better/fixed crew management and animation/dialog and so on. If I mess with the UI and graphics, I prefer to do it in my way.
