An Equilateral Triangle? I never had seen one thing like that.

You have to see things in perspective.

In Australia we refer to that as the 'map of Tassie', in reference to Tasmania.

Those unsure of this might check an atlas. Tasmania is a triangular island, south of mainland of Australia, and heavily forested.....

Not sure I'd trust a RED one, however....

Heh, it's funny, people were complaining about SH3 with good reason. It was a mess before several updates, and even then it took the modders to make something truly decent out of it. It seems that said complaints were proved valid, so why should those levelled against SH5 be any different?

Just because it's new, and has more eye candy, doesn't mean it's going to be any better than previous releases.

But there's a MAJOR difference between constructive comments and nitpicking (or continuous negative comments) that only makes an unhealthy atmosphere here.

I can only agree with this:

I'm sure that if SH5 shipped with the modded SH3 images (as superior as they are), many less players would be able to enjoy them thanks to less than adequate computer specifications.

Besides, it's only a matter of time before such accuracy finds its way into SH5 - what you see there in SH3 is certainly not only doable in SH3.

But then it wouldn't be a triangle, but a square.
