My point exactly. Last time I checked, this forum was for the free exchange of ideas, which includes people's opinions of what they think is a good idea and what's not. Just because I disagree with an idea for a mod doesn't mean I have a bad attitude.

Ow come on, don't take it like that.

And the sentence was "Maybe it wouldn't add much to gameplay, but it would definetly add to immersion.", which is just my opinion. I agree a cabin for just eye-candy might as well be left out, but the ideas for a lunar calendar and such are pretty good imho. Just felt a bit like you shot it down before it had a chance to even take off. Your opinion just came across a bit harsh, that's all.

Saying "I don't think that would add much to gameplay" ( :hmm: ) is different from "And what exactly would it to gameplay that isn't already there?" ( ), or is it just me?

Chill, gentlemen! We can't all agree on everything, but is that the end of the world? Hardly

But FWIW, I'd love to see the captain's quarters added to SHIV too if possible. Adds to the immersion IMHO - used to use it constantly in SH3 myself, because even a Kaleun needs a beauty nap every now and then

Indeed, wouldn't want to fall to sleep on station, now would would we? I also used it after sending a status report and waiting for the usual "keep up the good work" reply. You could keep an eye on the radioman from your bed, was pretty cool to see him look away from his station and kinda turn to you to report "message received".


Luke, I'm sorry if I offended you, I truly ment it lighthearted. I apolegize for it coming across the way it did, English isn't my native language so I probably could have worded it better.

Should have said that in the first place, huh?

Wetwarev7 has converted the captain's bunk from SHIII to SHIV.
But it seems not to be available anymore.

Oh, no big deal, don't worry about it. I, like anyone else, would like to have additional compartments added if they had some sort of functional use. Without that, though, it's just chrome in the end.

I also think this is an excellent idea. I remember before the game was released that the devs originally intended to included more compartments but it was not possible on their deadline.

I like chrome. Besides, what are "blue" water and "natural" sunsets if not chrome?

Neat... that would show them that we care.... (they might tink otherwise sometimes maybe based on the amount of time we sink into our boats)...and installing an aditional red lighting to the room our pc is in.. and the pac and atlantic charts on the walls.... LOL... I even once had a plan of a type IX measuring 2 mts by 0.90 mts pasted to the wall in front of my monitor... (and still have a pict of sir Winston Churchill looking down on me)... but they do prefer it to our spending our money/time on strip bars ja ja ja

And I seem to recall that on the pre-marital course that the church had us take before acepting to marry us, they kind-of-mentioned that good husbands are allowed a new video card once every year and a new CPU once every three years LOL
