Yes really over 15 years ... it seems to me that Uncle Neal has already made this request, right? and that Ubi was not concerned by this request ...
Ubi prefers to watch the stock market action ... anyway if nothing is done this game will end in oblivion ... because we always revolve around the said problem ... or will be played by a few enthusiasts who was constituted at a certain time formidable modders ... especially with the means of the moment ... when we see what has been achieved respected but these people are becoming less and less numerous then the limited field of possibilities has done its work ... but it would be necessary mobilize a lot of people to make things happen a bit like gta5 for pc players ... there is necessarily a compromise to be found with the publisher ... that they let go of their console which "ram" and which will never be a pc! !!! .. must say that there are so many sheep to shear ....

I'll not waste time even thinking about it since getting the Source for SH3 and up is probably about the same odds as Me winning the Lottery!
I probably stand a better chance of being hit by lightening!

Yes! Send us the sourcecode Ubisoft!

There is nothing worse for UBI than to have their programmers/developers work made to look inferior by the modders here on SubSim.
"A volunteer is worth ten" but in this case much more.
(Lets try to keep the option open that we might eventually get the code from UBI...so 'nuff said!)

I would love it.

I think it would be awesome and would need to be available on the most modern consoles for those of us who have had to move past the ridiculous archaic concept of "Gaming PC".

Call me a caveman. I prefer my PC. You can't properly so flight simulation without a HOTAS, mouse, keyboard and VR headset. Good luck with trying to get a console to do that.

I still think this is the best option for sh5 but forget UBI, go through steam.
Build a patch, not a wish list, just a patch to make the sim playable and offer it to steam. I think once it's out there and working it might make talking to UBI a little more productive. Fact is sh5 should have been the next gen sh3.

Option two sh4 witch is a bit dated itself but still looks good, I've been playing that dark waters mod and see great potential there.

sh3 is still the best! Onealex Edition, WAC smoke and effects, with harbors!
how could it get any better

fortunately the ridiculous does not kill ... as far as I see it has no limit;
when has these famous consoles
_1st year they are barely optimized ..
_2nd year it works but there are not enough games ... (when it has not burned)
_3rd year it is already archaic must go to the next model .. is not to speak of the theme of the network ... you imagine!
I have a machine which is soon 8 years old which has to support 3 different bones then an occulus is which makes run red dead redemption 2 I will only go back up one for this summer .. it is already in the boxes .. good js stop because I am already archaic ...

If I ever hit the Lottery? I'd offer UBI BIG BUCKS for the SH5 source code!
I'd even offer them a percent from sales!
I'd never expect to get that money back but it was free anyway right?

So I'll not hold my breath for the Lottery winnings and HOPE lightening don't strike me.

I would love to see UBI put a price on the sourcecode for SH3/4.

... if yes ... can the "EXE / Hex Guru's" do something with it / edit it ????
... is it then enough ... to bring the "Game" to graphic level 2021 ???
... Questions about questions ....
.... but .... this is the "basic question" .... can you bring this "ancient game" to 2021 at all .... theoretically ???

AOD is the best subsim game I have ever played. I would rather see a remake of AOD than anything Silent Hunter (ok MAYBE SIlent Hunter 1).

My dream is using the engine and multiplayer netcode in SH4 to remake a battle of the atlantic type multiplayer campaign game with air and sea platforms. Each sector on the patrol map would be a "Room" and players would resolve battles each turn.

Onkel Oneal on behalf of the Subsim community, could you try to ask Ubi again? (for sh3)
