History Quiz Sh4 Style

1. What was the FIRST mod ?
2. Who did the mod that was a KEY to helping players transition to SH4 from SH3 easier ?
3.What was the SECOND mod ?
4.Who did this COLORFUL mod.

These two set the stage for a tidal wave of mods to come. And Gameplay on SH4 would never be the same again.

I've posted this because of nOObs asking about this problem and I thought this would be a fun way to give these to modders some recognition.

Also a clue. Their mods have been included in every Super mod.

edit: I may edit this with more.

First two mods for SH4

Well I guess enough time has passed.


1. CCIP : Setkey mod. Mod gave us SH3 keymap to make it easier to play. What was UBI thinking.

2. jimimadrid : Greenlamp mod. made control panel buttons lite green when activated. Instead of gray buttons that were hard to see.


These first two mods made the transition to SH4 IMHO
alot easier and are in someway included in all Super mods today.

I personally Thank You both.

1. I think it was the green light for the orders bar.
2. Either Duci or Beery
3. Not sure
4. See above

5. I could be wrong on all accounts. But hey, I tried. PS, I did not look at the other responses...honest.

Good Morning AVG

It was so close but CCIP crowed first:rotfl: So jimimadrid was a very close second and was a gentleman about it.

As I have both games and Supermods loaded it makes it alot easier to jump back and forth and play both.
