I've done plenty of searches on this forum and it appears that no one is developing the Jahre Viking.
But plenty of people want it in the game.
I've started modeling it so tell me if there is a reason it's not being developed and I should stop.
Or scream Hazzah if you want to see the Jahre Viking in Ship simulator.

Hazzah... but...
You know about sketchup... So unless you switched, you will only have a nice collection of pictures to put on the forum. ;D
Plus, that ship would be too big to be used in most, if not all, port enviroments. In RL, she cant even navigate through the English channel I think. :)

There are two ports in the world large enough for the Jahre Viking one is Rotterdam and another is off the coast of Brazil...
Also I thought You thought it was only the .skp extention that was not exepted.

Hello,
When she was still navigating the fully loaded draft was 24.6 m, so that she could go through the English Channel and along the deep water routes, to the North Sea and Norway.
To reach the Europoort, she needed certainly to go with the tide or be at least partially unloaded, unlike TI Asia or Berge Stahl, the deep water route in the Maasgeul being apparently 23.4m plus tide height.
And can most offshore sites and terminals not be reached by those ULCCs?

Luc

Hello,

You are forgetting at least another one : Antifer, near Le Havre in France.
Antifer is an oil terminal with jetties, built for the ULCC more than 500 000 tons.
Ok, I admit it's not a real port for all kind of cargo... ;)

I doubt that the game version of Rotterdam will take it.. but I may be wrong. :)
As for the .skp, nope, as I said in that other thread, I think it's more than just the extension, as you can export it with the pro version and it will still not be accepted, even though it's then no longer .skp
But as I also said, I am no expert. I just know that there's a few really good sketchup models out there, yet VSTEP has said that these will not be suited for use.

Hoy guy's,
Well,we are trying to get the "Berge Stahl"into the game.That vessel is build by Dejan.
For the moment,you can use that vessel only on the "Maasvlakte"and should be able to get her on her original berthingplace at "EMO"in de mississippiharbour.
The second place where you can use it at the moment is the ocean area.
For the moment it's all a bit limited,however,if you start the game with that vessel,on the oceanpart,and go to her berthingplace in Rotterdam.I think it would keep you busy for some time.
You shouls use harbourtugs,and i think its a very good vessel for multiplayer.
If you want to make the "Jahre Viking",i think its to soon for it right now.First we have to create more harbours,where those vessels can fit in.
Regards
Marc

Yes, Ive passed that harbor a few times, it shure can handle big ships ;)
Here are some pictures of the Jahre Viking in Cap D'antifer.

I already found some of those but Thanks those others will be a great help to me.
-
LLamalord,
Do you want pics,for that modelling????
I will look for them,if you want.
Marc
-
I think I've found most of them by now but if you fell like sinking your day into it feel free :)
-
Sorry to raise such an old topic but...what ever happened to this vessel? Do you still have it's file, llamalord? Could we at least see some pics?
-
There's allready been attempts to get Goax' Jahre Viking in the game, but alas.. no permission has been given untill now, so vstep cannot use it.
So as an active project, this would be stuck.. Even though of course it's not Goax' project here... But just FYI regarding the ship as such.
Fred.
-
Ah, I think I heard that before, but I meant just to see the model, I mean, we never even got to see it.
-
He made the Berge Stahl, but I didn't know he'd made the Jahre Viking? ???
-

Maybe he's getting mixed up.
I often get the Berge Stahl and Jahre Viking mixed up :lol:

I just love the way how Nick loudly & cool announces his models & designs the head posts in his topics which are then slowly but surely going in to nothingness!
-
I know that my topic die into nothing, that is because all that have seen it and care enough to post have nothing else to say. Also my models unlike so many of the model projects on this forum actually go somewhere. I was invited to pilot the last CoalFired SteamShip in America by the power of my models alone.
And as for this topic, This was almost two years ago, Back when I had no clue what kind of work would go into this. I admit that I did not always have the limited wisdom and commonsense that I do now.
-
So that mean that there are no pics?
-
I got the two mixed up indeed.. :doh:
My bad, never mind.
-
So that mean that there are no pics?
I did make a mini model to put in Google earth for Rotterdam, is that good enough?

YES YES Desing it!
It would be awsome to have it in ss08 or ss10 :D

It would be great to have a large vessel in the game and Ship Sim 2010 is now Ship Simulator Extremes. :thumbs: But right nw, Latitude is our largest tanker with Vermaas as the largest container vessel in SS08, SSPro and SSE

ok some time has past.
isnt there anything new to show?

You know what, maybe you should take your mouth and :-X (stick it down into your stomach?)
Besides, its kind of rude to push developers. If he got some news to tell, he post it. If he got no new, well, the topic stays empty... So if there are no more updates, maybe he gave it up, or made a decision or don't want to give some more updates to this topic at all. So why not leave it alone...man (kid...whatever)? :evil:
-
"stick it down your stomach".... I love that... :D
Can I use that phrase myself, or is it copyright... How do you say that in Norwegian.

Better don't practice with it in public until you learn it properly. ;D

Jahre Viking is alive and well in Virtual Sailor. Sebu made a an amazing model of it but did not get the Ok from the owners then to distribute it. Just a few of us lucky ones got it. Now that ship is sitting on Gadani beach in pieces so I guess it does'nt matter anymore. By the way the ship was sold and renamed Knock Nevis as a moored distribution ship in the Gulf. Finally she was sold again and renamed Mont and made her last voyage to the breakers. If you have VS and want it, let me know.
A ship like this is not very useful in VS or SS. I have both. As far as I know she never visited Europe laden, except LeHavre which had a special port/berth made for really big tankers.
Goax has made an terrific model of bulker Berge Stahl but I hear is having trouble getting the owners ok to release it. Modellers out there should do this first before spending vast amounts of time building a replica of actual ships. I think the Owners worry that terrorists can simulate ways to destroy these ships. It happened to Jahre Viking in the Gulf War.
Except for Solent, SS seems to leave out the tanker terminals with the discharge towers. LA has the pier but does not have any discharge apparatus. There is a big tanker terminal there.
If someone can tell me how to post pics of the VS version here, I will.
-
Here are some images of JV in VS in ballast. Its easy to have laden, light and ballast versions. A few shots show her on the beach ready to be scrapped.

You might not realize but this topic is well over a year old.

The Quality Simulations Library. Its for everything Virtual Sailor 7 and Vehicle Simulator.
-
Anyone know if you have the ship Emma Maersk for virtual sailor ???
-
There is no Emma Maersk for VS.
-
have any oil tanker to the virtual sailor ???
-
virtualskipper which the ship that is in the picture under your name
-
the topic is an old one then say that you can not download the knock nevis :'(
-

Yes, lots of them.
Here is a good place to start:

virtualskipper which the ship that is in the picture under your name
That is a selftaken picture of the MS Azura with the RPA 11 near it.
the topic is an old one then say that you can not download the knock nevis :'(
Indeed this is an old topic, so why do you wake it up with a different topic?
Also, I have the Jahre Viking for VS, but I can not place it for download because of copyrights. Just keep searching or ask in the Virtual Sailor forum (what I wouldn't recommend too).
