I ticked "I would provide info on planes" but what I really meant is I would provide info on ships --- no option for that
In my modded installation I have enabled the in-game viewer for any new ships, some with text, many just with a view of the model. It would be nice to have the text in a popup window and be able to keep the model view on screen. At present you can only have one or the other. Basic text with standard spec for each model, all in an agreed format would be easy and fairly quick to do. The game uses Uni-Code text for the text windows with a small number of text formatting options. Expanded text for selected models could include service history. There maybe issues of copyright if this text is cut and pasted from reference books without re-drafting. Similar things could be done for Tanks and Vehicles & Artillery categories. The latter should maybe be split into separate categories. Just a basic spec and period of use, to an agreed format initially, with more detailed info to be added only to specific models dependant on enthusiasm. Ashe |

There have been a few good ideas around the viewer, which can be taken into account later, but for now, I think the task to complete the viewer the way, as it is now and has always been, is already large enough. Pls understand - if this should really going to happen, I just don't want to get into problems with other stuff.
@Asheshouse: I guess, you are talking about mod ship (I bet most are your own)? Also here I would rather only take care for the content of the stock game. But the modding scene maybe can benefit from such a project too. Do you know, if there are stock ships missing in the viewer? If so, they can't be many. I have also contact made with a russian guy, who started filling the missing planes, but in russian language so far. We are currently discussing, who to go on, also to prevent double work. I guess, it can slowly go to start soon. I think, I will not going too hasty with this topic either.

Sister ships also may be represented as single entry, with all in-game sister-ships simply listed in the text.

Anyway, most of the data I'm interested in are already programmed into the game -- the only problem is that I can't access them in a convenient way. As to the willingness to contribute, translations into Hungarian (from English or German) would be pretty useless, ehh? |
