Title: Ships Can Sink! It's True! Take a look! (WARNING: Large Pictures -56k warning)
Post by: SailingTheSeas07 on July 03, 2007, 19:48:50
Yes it's true they can sink! They can sink!
...Well...under force they can sink.

I decided to messa round with the Ocean Star and trying to get it under the surface. Somehow I squeezed it under the Brooklyn Bridge in Manhattan...well...over the Brooklyn Bridge...and sank it nar the Manhattan Bridge. Take a look here!

Please be sure to read the captions on the pictures.  ;D Apologies for the large pictures.

Under the Bridge...

Then over the Bridge...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-27-45.png)

The Listing Begins...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-27-14.png)

The East River begins to engulf the boat quickly..
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-27-01.png)

She flips over!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-26-51.png)

She lists in the other direction
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-26-18.png)

The River begins to take her down...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-26-02.png)

The Ocean Star has fully sank into the River, but wait...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-25-33.png)

Some great force pushes her up back to the surface!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-25-25.png)

It's pushing the boat fast! It might be flung into the air!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-25-16.png)

Oh no...here she goes!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-24-54.png)

Up...Up...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-24-38.png)

Up...Up...And...
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-24-45.png)

She flips upsidedown flying over the Brooklyn Bridge! (You tell me if that boat looks like it is in the water.)
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-25-05.png)

After Adjusting on the other side of the bridge, she crashed into the Manhattan Bridge and slowly began to take on water.
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-09-57.png)

She's listing again! I'm surprised they didn't lower the lifeboats!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-09-38.png)

Oh the water!
(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r201/BlueExpressTrainz/ShipSim2006_2007-05-10_17-09-49.png)

The End!

I hope you all enjoyed my experience on Ship Sim 2006. I apologize once again for the fairly large picture sizes. I hope they aren't too much of a burden. Tak care and Happy Sailing.

Do I see two thruster controls on the ship??? Does that mean it's got a stern thruster as well?

Sorry for the Q. Didn't buy the add on pack

Hmmm. Do I detect a hint of sarcasm there?

If I were all knowing I would be TELLING, not ASKING. As for the high post count, I am bored to death. Someone has to keep making comments to keep the mods busy.

I'm normally using the laptop which isn't really fast enough to run SS properly, so I spend far more time here than playing the sim. Silly really

It would have saved Vstep a lot of time if they just charged £25 for the forum and forgot the game totally ;)

Gustav: I know, just messing. :)

The photos are awesome. I tried sinking the Titanic realistically, but it wanted to renact SS Poseidon when the PoR dragged it down.

A big cruiseship flying in the air is not realistic. In SS08 you can use the ~fly cheat for flying your ship.
