The falcon 4 community is still alive and well, 16 years after its release - so probably not the best comparison!

No, that is exactly why I used them

There are a number of full game rebuilds by the modding community that I am sure would have needed someone's blessing before the code from the original game be used. And as you said, they are doing very well.

Same here. I was willing to give the game a shot but I could never play the darn thing.

Actually the source code was illegally leaked by one of the disgruntled developers after being told that they were all fired (or so the legend goes) when Hasbro took over.

But it was leaked. No blessing was ever given.

Very little chance of that happening here.

It's too bad. This is probably the only way of Silent Hunter being the game it was meant to be.

Too bad , indeed ! But I think that the game was having a future if the players would have seen any changes at all . One year and no change ...it is quite frustrating. Most of the players quit the game when seeing the lack of comunication from the devs . My 2 cent

Silent Hunter 6. The controls and interface from Silent Hunter 3, with the graphics from Silent Hunter 5. (Minus the 80's arcade style ship explosions).

Now THAT would be a game! One can dream right?

That dream has been a reality for some time now

Guess you haven't checked out the SH5 Mods forum have you?
