The contents is not the biggest issue atm. We need to get a working game first. I have alot of bugs I want to report to ubi. I did that before 1.2 patch came, they dont seem very interested btw. Maybe they are lazy, I don't know.

It would be cool to edit those .ogg files and add in some silent hunter 2 music into the game. That would be a cool mod to begin with.

Something like this

I would also favor changing some of the sound in game. Many of the sounds are very annoying.

Well then.. I guess you should run back to SH3 like all the others that bash this game and all the work the Modders have put into it.. Honestly the amount of negativity that this game recieves ..

If all of that went into actually working on Mods and utilities to work with GR2 files (as privateer is doing) then the game would probably skyrocket.

Just so I don't have to say I told you so when SH5 blows you all away.. HAR HAR

Cheers,

Krauter

Way to go - how to belittle all the hard work done by the modders so far.

Are you aware of how long this game has been available?

Are you aware of how long it took for a supermod to be developed for SH3?

Somehow I doubt it.....

I will nominate Post 15 for the SH5 funniest post when Mod of the Year nominations are tabled. Ducimus knows a softball when he sees it.

Or start learning how to do it yourself. If everybody who whined about how the modders (who work for free out of their love for the game) had let them down and started to learn how hard it is, maybe things would get done faster.

Couldn't have put it better myself m8

I know my account with subsim is new and all but after playing the mods for SH3 and 4 I have to say that I love the work these guys put into improving the game.

Keep up the good work peeps, your modding is more than welcomed by those who appreciate your efforts

Mods are nice. But some modders tend to like putting the old fashional button-menu from sh3 into sh5 so that you can "warp" to deck, back to the sub, to the periscope etc.

I don't favor such buttons, it removes realism. In world war 2 you didnt have buttons to magically warp to the position you need to be. It's not how it worked back then.

You had to use your feet to walk down the latter and up the latter, bending down between hatches and stuff. Warp-buttons does not add to realism. It removes realism and is cheating in highest form.

Other than that, mods are nice.

OK!!! First off you all took what I said wrong..

I think anyone that does things for free deserve much more than "props" or "good job"

Its actually the opposite.. I think the modders are GOD! I already admitted I Loved GWX for SH3!
I remember when we all talked about how horrible SH5 when we all just got it. We all hoped Modders were going to revive this game one day.. All I am saying, except for small stuff here and there, not much has changed.. In terms of GWX for SH3.

I am sure they will be able to do it, maybe not, from what I remember a modder saying it was impossible for a GWX in SH5?

I'm not disputing the fact that you may or may not approve of Mods nor how you view them in this forum. What I see as unnacceptable and very rude is the fact that a Mod needs to be 'large' or 'super' to contribute to this game.

ANY Mod, Large or Small brings this game, and SH3 or 4 for that matter, closer to what the game should have been and to what the community wants the game to be.

The simple fact that you state these small little Mods are doing Nothing Much to improve the game is a slap in the face to a Modder. All Modders start off somewhere. If you've just shunned the work of a beginner Modder who has released something not ground breaking, but at least improves the game a little bit, you've just given him a reason to quit. Like we all say Modders are people who work for free, out of their love for the game and the happiness it brings them.

Shunning their work may not stop them from creating Mods but it may stop them from releasing those mods, however small, to the community.

Thanks.

A little respect is all that's needed in this world


If you want a list of respected Mods or "must have's" go to the Mod Loadout/Order thread (or something along those lines) there is a lot of good information in there

Cheers,

Krauter
