What kind of art support do you need again?

3-D art. I needs ships, planes, explosions, splashes, and something that looks reasonably like Henderson Field.

Hmmm... maybe some of the guys at the War in the Pacific: AE forums can help.

Maybe it would be a good idea to contact Neal Stevens head honcho at Subsim.com (the internet's largest naval gaming community) the game is very highly thought of there.

Perhaps you could do a feature/interview on the creation of the original game and the possibilities of its successor for the site. With this year being the 20th Anniversary (ouch!) of the original game it would be an ideal time for such an article and would perhaps provide the impetus needed to attract the many talented 3D modellers over there to divert their attention from modding the "Silent Hunter" series for a while to assist in this great undertaking.

Maybe a kickstarter project would be the way to go?

I was thinking about that as well to fund my SSN game project. But I'm not Tim Schafer frown

Just bumping this, so a good book but especially a great game isn't forgotten.

I was hoping that Gatorman would pop by and give us an update.

Hi Ed,

I did enjoy your games - both Task Force 1942 and Pacific Air War were pioneer in many ways, in terms of graphics, in-game 'physics' and highly engaging campaigns.

This is a late reply and I hope you have your support identified already, but these are a couple more you may want to consider. There are modders who built their 3D artworks for existing (also old) games like CFS2 and IL-2. Their works showed eyes for details and a love for the genre, so you may find a more receptive audience there.

Good Luck,

Reading "Neptune's Inferno" and thinking of "Task Force 1942" (which I played via DosBox last night) brought me to this thread. Man I would love an update / remake of TF1942 and/or PAW 1942, two of my all time favorites!!!

There are all sorts of groups on Facebook that should result in finding people with the talent and naval interest in pursuing a task such as this.
