basically i want to create a very realistic fishing sim where you can see other players catching fish and also having matchs , i know there is nothing out there at the moment for pc but i think fisherman would love it and so would i and want to see it on my screen , it will be c++/DirectX project with 3dsmax as models ,

some key ideas for my game would be

you see another player struggling to land a fish , so you get up from out of your peg and run to where the person is and pick up the landing net and help him catch the big one :D

another idea is would be if the fish fights so much your gonna to rip off the lips and you would just real in a pair of lips on your hook , this way you get a idea of how big the fish from seeing the size of the lips :D

i want it so there is a pond and you have other players with animations sat around the pond fishing and having a good time ,

i am still thinking of idea's but i think there could be a nice community made from a real fishing sim ,

the 1 thing i need help on is .x heirchy and shaders and models , the rest of the code i think i can handle sniff :D
