[REQ] SH4 commander

[stabiz]

Dont worry, we`ll just keelhaul him if not.

Guys, the amount of "SH3Cmdr has killed my guppies and demagnetised my fridge magnets" posts I've read over the last two years from people who quickly forgot how much they paid for SH3Cmdr (or where the readme file was) has totally put me off even considering an SH4Cmdr.

Thus I will happily leave that fun to someone else.

To all the valued supporters and other happy SH3Cmdr users, sorry, but one can only be so patient.

I understand and love SH3 Commander. To those who "lost guppies" (GUPPYS?)

[Kruger]

I am very sorry to read this. But I understand.

[MarshalLaw]

And this is it in a nutshell gentlemen (and the odd lady). Here is a guy who gives the community something very cool and he doesn't even charge for it. And a lot of what he hears is a bunch of "bitchen and moanin" about how the program couldn't get the user laid or failed to come up w/ a good recipe for French onion soup.

Can you blame him for being bitter? I can't.

Here's my policy on 3rd party applications:
- Load at my own risk
- If I like it say so on the forum
- If I really like it - donate some $$ to the dev.
- IF asked about what can be improved give feedback on the forum
- If I DON'T like it - uninstall and move on

I can understand him I am sure he got bombarded with mails asking for free support, when all the information could be found in the docs. For a while it is fun to teach to people but you ultimately get tired with feeding users with the spoon, tying their shoelaces every morning etc ..

As a developer, the thing you hope for is intelligent exchange with people who have come to understand your program very deeply, and giving you some new insight into the heart of the problem. You might even hope for someone offering help. Unfortunately all that is rare, very rare.

Sad.

But...but...but...there's all those real names out there...and if they don't include the ship names again...and if we can only award one medal per patrol...and...and...




But I'll suck it up and take like a man...only because I have no other choice. This talk of keelhauling is stupid. It just can't be done...can it?

Nah Steve - we NEED SHIV Commander! The SH III version was just waaaay too useful, too excellent and too essential for us not to lobby its hardworking author to please please [pretty please] re-consider.

Mr.Jones,
Apart from the usual sprinkling of dweebs, idiots, whiners, whingers, blamers, scupper rats and just plain irritating rivet hounds found in every gaming realm, this subsim community also includes a fair sprinkling of mature, intelligent, intellectual gamers who have some idea of the vast amount of personal time and work that has to go, not just into making an excellent bit of SW like SHIICMDR but into de-bugging, servicing, maintaining and improving it too. Some of us (shock horror) even had real sub sea time, back in the day, so we constitute your REAL appreciative and authentic audience!

Personally I would be happy to write promotional marketing material for your excellent software any time. Please ignore the above listed annoying people - we NEED you to make SHCMDR MK 2 for SH IV! Hell, I bet if somebody here with more virtual sea-time than me were to put up a vote (hint hint) you would find a HUGE majority of subsim forum members would agree.

One of the things I really liked about SHIII Commander was the ability to change the time compression speed when certain things happened. Such as when a ship or plane is spotted, it would default to 8X. I hated that, Id rather have it to drop down to 1X time and that is how I set it up in SHIIIC.

The only other thing I used quit a bit was crew management. I used it to promote, dismiss, and give out medals instead of using SHIII game itself. I like to micromanage my crews carrer.

Anybody know what to change to get the time compression to drop to 1X on certain situations?
