Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
There have been several attempts - at least in discussion - of just such a thing. There was a naval battles mod IIRC, but I don't think it lasted too long. It would not be that difficult to accomplish; the people working on these mods just disappeared from the forums...
Great Naval Battles (which I might add, Atrocities was the second replier in that thread!  )
Great Naval Battles 1.0
This one had so much promise... alas:
Carribean Mod
Some other threads:
Great Naval Battles 1.1 coming
: NEW SE4 Mod (ideas, suggestions help?)

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
How are you going to solve the issue with the WP images? I can imagine you editing Starmap and the planet images, but what about the WPs/shipping lanes?
edit: Perhaps you could make use of these images.....?

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
He (or someone else) said it would not necessarily have to play on Earth, but anywhere..... and if he's using ICBMs and satellites, I don;t think it's WWII.....
And laser weapons are already being tested. Mainly to shoot down missiles, but I read once that a company in Italy was busy developing an actual laser rifle and that it would be finished somewhere - I can't really remeber, could be 2006 or 2012, whatever.

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
There already are laser rifles, but they require massive power packs (backpack size) at the moment so are still impractical. Then again, we do just fine killing one another with projectiles it almost seems redundant to build another weapon type.

Are you referring to the (in)famous US antimissile program? Too bad they can't hit...
I guess that I missed the part about missiles and satellites. My fault, sorry

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
The Star Wars project involved sats with both weapons lasers and railguns to take down Soviet nukes.
I meant actual practical laser rifles that don't require you to carry a nuclear power plant around.

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
The first thing would be to just get the ocean map and a few island images made. The systems and quardant files will have to be modded right off. The components and facilites list can then be worked out.

Re: Is There Any Way To Mod
Will you post your ocean map and island images as you make them? Always exciting to follow the progress

Very true.
Simply change the system graphics and the shipsets, and you'll be halfway there.
When that's done, you'll have a seafaring game with components and facilities that sound too high tech in the descriptions.
