How many SH3 modders will we lose after SH4 is released?

I guess that in the opposite side of SH2, SH3 will live for some years ahead yet, unless a better uboat simulation appears. And also our mods and some few new mods will live for long time yet. The adult simulation games are in truth a hobby not only games.

However, you are right nvdrifter, the SH3 mod community and also the players will drop year after year. But will not die easily.

Rubini, I hope you are right. I would love to see some major SH3 flaws fixed. SH3 does have a large, intelligent modding community. Hopefully it won't die easily. I keep hearing rumors that the SDK might be released, but I'm not too hopeful.

Some of the things on the top of my fix-it list:

-no Game Over death screen when a compartment completely floods
-no more sea floor collision damage
-inability to dive if pressure hull is too damaged
-fixed AI
-fixed collision damage
-inability to run engines while being repaired
-fixed time compression aircraft skip

...and a lot of others not listed.
