The Demo Version of Ship SImulator 2008. Just good fun.

It is just like FSX in the water without all the issues. Grin

One thing that really impresses me is the water quality. It actually feels more realistic than FSX and looks a whole lot better.

I am guessing that it is exactly like FS except in the water...meaning everything is in real time. Wink

Can you apply Shadows to the objects in the Options, Alex?

Like the Flight Sim, without Shadows the objects look like they are floating up in the air!

No idea. I just have the demo so I have no clue what is what on the inner workings.
