Title: Diamond Jubilee River Pageant in London
Post by: MokMok on June 03, 2012, 13:14:46

Today is the Diamond Jubilee River Pageant in London for the Diamond Jubilee of the British Queen Elisabeth.

It can be seen at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18234049 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18234049).

You could create a mission with such a pageant or sail a pageant in MP mode. Suitable environments would be Hamburg, New York, San Fransisco or the Port of Rotterdam.

I think a more suitable scenery would be the river Thames in London.

But Shipsim doesn't have the Thames London environment.

In Shipsim it isn't possible to create any custom environment. Vstep should develop the London Thames environment with the Tower Bridge and the Big Ben.
