Anyone fancy another sim other than Virtual sailor? I do.... This looks to do it, the graphics are cheap and chincy but for 300 megs...... I wont complain and if they are succesful they plan on making it like Trainz and FS and continue to improve! Heres the link http://www.shipsim-secure.com/ Cheers, Gunny

EDIT: I bought me a copy and love it, cant wait for the american Version with NY harbor etc!

I found this the other day. Is it actually M$ or another company?

Either way I think I'll keep my seagoing exploits in the real world. Smiley

Another company.... Its kind of expensive I do agree for what it has, Nice water textures/Reflections, But NO Moving parts on the ships etc...... it will be a work in progress like FS and Trainz as far as I can tell, I'll post some screenshots in freeware in a few! Cheers, Gunny

The radars rotate on the ships.

Downloaded the demo. Tried it. Caused £700000+ damage to my ship. £300000+ to other ships. And £190000000+ to the enviroment. Basically I parked in the way of a container ship in Rotterdam and rolled over and fell through the scenery. Grin


Quite fun, but I don't think i'll be buying the full version just yet.
