SH4 - what engine improvements? (no flames!)

[Rockin Robbins]

One down, three to go. You can see the TDC setup. The water is warmer than it was before. Make the move!

Errr.... sorry, forgot you said no flames!:rotfl:

I just got bitten by the "save/reload" bug. Pretty irritating knowing how easy this is to program right!

This was a test scene.dat that kriller2 worked on after Dave passed. The rest of it is Dave's creation. It is the same one you can get on the ROW thread if you do not have it already. This is also with PPF turned on....no grainy effect.

SH4 is the best looking game to ever come out. Thats what got me hooked first, its a piece of artwork. Its the type of game your girlfriend/wife will even admire for its looks!

Anyways i play both SH3/GWX/OLC. SH4 TM/RSRDC

Tis better to have the whole cake than just half

Because like I said, I've done hundreds of saves without regard for situation, including during an approach, being depth charged, surfaced, submerged, whatever and no problems. I have read of a very few problems but I consider the game stabile and predictable in that regard.

You agree with me that save/reload bugs are compeletely inexcusable! That's a first. But since it was the final straw that pushed me into SH4, I'm grateful. SH4 has never let me down.

(I got mostly snide "of course you can't save the game when..." comments when I posted in the SH3 forum) But since it was the final straw that pushed me into SH4, I'm grateful. SH4 has never let me down. I consider SH3 broken in spite of all its patches, none of which has touched that fatal problem.

As stated, yes sh4 has working thermals. SH3 with GWX is a great game. SH4 out of box patched to 1.4 is a very good game. Some, however, just prefer the theatre of the Atlantic. Much of this is just choice or preference.

SH4 modded with the current mods is a beauty. Bigger boats, longer patrols, bigger torpedo loadouts than a uboat, a new, very well made American TDC to learn if you play manual TDC. Adequate enemy AI in stock, Very challenging when modded. (TM supermod is highly recommended for an experienced captain like you)

I like subsims. I cannot imagine someone who likes subsims not giving SH4 a test run. You can always uninstall it but I'll bet a dollar against a doughnut that you won't.
