OMG!!

those are nuke subs

about the torps, grab the homing one from SH3 for now...

USS_Trigger · 02-18-08, 04:01 PM

problem with the homing one from SH3 as is the problem with the ones in SH4 is that its too unreliable, its hard to get a lock, you need loud higher speed props

Capt Jack Harkness · 02-19-08, 10:05 PM

Well, I'm looking into making an active-homing torpedo. To do this I may have to create a new sensor for the torp so that I can reduce or eliminate the drop in performance with speed without affecting every other sonar system in game. With that out of the way I can rig up anything from 35kt electric homing torps to 60+kt ADCAPs!

Actually, now that I think about it, I may need to add half a dozen new sensors to incorporate the new sonar on the subs while taking into account the differences between the USA and the Soviets...

I'm the guy who posted the Poll for SH5 being set in the Cold War and I am very happy to see some of the work being posted here. I think that I'm gonna drop Neal a line and ask if he can post one of the screen shots on the main page....

Looks great! I can't wait until this is completed! I really like modern subs but currently the only good modern sub simulator is DW and the graphics in DW kinda suck

Also could someone tell me what sub this is?

Thanks denis,
I think somone that speaks russian could easily donwload their subs and then upload on filefront to make them usable by the sh4 community....of course we must ask for permission first, that's THEIR job and THEIR CONSENSE is absolutely necessary.

Hey guys,I am concerned that you are working hard into this mod.Perhaps one day,not far,SH4 comunity will have an exceptional mod covering this age.Are you going to let coexist Cold war units with the existing ones in the actual SH?
How to implement (if possible) 50s,60s surface units like destroyers,guided missile cruisers,frigates and carriers Midway and Forrestal class for example?
Concerning actual ports,how to give them +15,20 years update shape,plus the construction of new ones from Russia,China,Korea and allied ports worldwide?

I'm assuming that they are either making missions or a new campaign layer would have to be added where only 50's and 60's ships are loaded into the game, if you choose a Cold War career.
