Working on a new submarine sim: Sub Commander - advice needed!

[haloawsome]

I love this game and everything about it.

[ChristopherTarana]

I think the only problem he had was using Blitz Basic! The developer of the software replaced it with a newer environment! So no more support or updates for it!

I still have all the files and addons for on my computer!

I will reinstall it for old times sake! It was the best going, even over some commercial software! Just don't launch Missiles at the cities! Could make someone barf, and wreck a good computer!

Thanks!

So does this mean that they will be no more updates for sub commander!

That would be a pity, as the dev put a lot of work in it!

I believe on the other Forum, he said it might take awhile because source code looked like Spaghetti! Total lack of structure in the code!
He hasn't released it yet as far as I know!


Thanks!

I stopped working on stuff as school ended and my time went to 0. After a while I forgot about the game, It was removed in a full PC wipe and I lost basically everything. Received a few random emails and by luck remembered my password and now I am really in the mood to make some stuff. Im going to try and replicate most of my old creations by memory, I think a few of them were the one with the rear torpedo bay, A fast one with no battery and a few others. They probably will not take the same name as their previous versions unless I find the old hull in some flash drive in the dusty corner of my room but I know a few more tricks so we shall see if they pay off. Cheers!

So yeah. Back again but for real this time

I have two Toshiba Laptops! One with Windows Vista and one with 7! The Monitor died on the 7 one and I started using the Vista. Now the monitor died on the Vista and I'm back on the 7!

Hello,

I am new to the forum and to sub games/sims. I´ve been enjoying this game a lot but have some questions I could not find an answer for in the guide or tutorial, Ii tried a search on the forums but could not find a way to search in an specific sub forum (this one).

First one I thin is a bug, after refiting or loading, the diesel generators on the foxtrot don´t give as much power as before, refiting again doesn´t solve the isue. Is there any way to bypass the bug?

Is there a way to have an idea of how the war is going for your country?

I am aware that development stoped, I am very thankfull to the developer and sad this gem got stoped on its tracks. Best luck in future projects!

Geoff's Program was programmed in Blitz 3d! The author's of Blitz 3d had cancelled it and replaced it with another software!
I like it too!
The Radio Room is the easiest place to keep up with the war in general!


I have all my Mission Logs saved too, look on the Forum here!


Thanks, Traito!

Downloaded and started playing this little gem literally just a couple of hours ago, after seeing a "Let's Play" Sub Commander video on YouTube. Never even knew about it beforehand.

Find of the year so far. This is great!

Too bad about the obsolete code and the end of its development, but I still love it. Hearty thanks to the author!

[ChristopherTarana]

There were 11 user created submarines for Sub Commander. Do you have all those? They were the Manta class, December Class, Reverie Class, Equinox Class, The Seawolf Class, Type IV, Typhoon Class, Smalls Class, 3 Ohio's and a Vangaurd Class. If not PM me!


Christopher Tarana

Can't find the right word fot it... WOW friends, this is really a little gem - really, as a Indie-games lover too, I was so lucky to get in touch with Sub Commander browsing this forum. I've done much of the tutorial by now, and I love the details care found in this title, rogue-like sim as nothing before - well, maybe just a touch of the (nice!) Faster Than Light. So Sub Commander dev is over, as I've seen, what a pity.

[ChristopherTarana]

TheGeoff says he has upgraded from Blitz basic to Unity!
