Why would the Dev's request modder's models if SHIII is done

[Charlie901]

Origionally posted by Berry:

The developers have sent word through the Subsim.com grapevine that they are putting the call out to the mod community for high-quality mods and 3D models for possible inclusion in a future version of the game. Here are the restrictions for 3D models:

For ships and planes, these are the restrictions:

Battleships - 35,000 poly

Destroyers - 25,000 poly

Merchants:

- 10,000 poly - small

- 15,000 poly - medium

- 20,000 poly - large

Planes - 3,500-4,000 poly

It's important that all the work should be done by the community. All submissions must be the mod-maker's own work - please do not use copyrighted work or models found on the internet. The developers will add the best models in the game and the mod-makers will be added to credits in the special thanks section. Details of where to send the mods will follow.

The developers hope that everyone will enjoy this task for the community.

I didn't want to HIJACK the original "Sticky" Thread but I want to know why the "Dev's" put out the word that they are "Looking for Modders" to include their work in a "Future version" of the game if there is to be, "NO FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF SHIII"????

I really wish they'd reconsider an expansion pack that this sim sooo desperatley needs.

Heck they could have most of the work done for them, by the very talented modders out there.
