I think you are right fred, as always

Hehe.. I think you must only have read a small percentage of my posts then....

That many?

Heh heh...

I should be able to tell when release nears, as Jason De Donno releases posts with pre-release Titanic pictures some time before the release on the Titanic Research & Modeling Association forum. At least, it seems that's what he did for Ship Simulator 2006 and 2007 (2008).

At one point, he even called the game "Titanic Simulator" in the topic of one of his threads!

I guess that "After all, it's Ship Simulator, not Titanic Simulator" comment people keep giving me is false, huh?

Mad_Fred · « **Reply #30 on:** December 16, 2008, 00:33:50 »

Everyone is able to tell when the release nears, as VSTEP will have announced it by then. Before that, everyone involved in the creation process, and testing, and so on, are not to reveal any information other than what VSTEP gives the green light for.

Of course Jason can post about his own work at any time he chooses, untill it's vstep property, I bet, but even then a finished model does not make a finished game.

And no, that comment is not false, Jason was just having a laugh with you people..

Fred

TerryRussell · « **Reply #31 on:** December 16, 2008, 00:47:06 »

So. It's false that the false comment was not false, then?

Of course, Fred may know the exact moment at which Ship Simulator 2027 will be released. But he may not be able to hint at that information until he gets the green light from someone he can't even hint that he knows about.

Get the hint?

He never says it's a joke in this topic made before the release of SS06:

Hi very first sentence in his very first post says:
"Here are a couple of promotional renderings of the up and coming Titanic featured in the german Schiff Simulator."

You can read the thread title a couple of different ways.

But the modeller who produced the Titanic vessel is NOT the arbiter of when the simulator will be released. That role lives inside Vstep. There are many people involved in the development who may have a better idea, since they are involved in spects that the vessel models need in order to work properly. People such as the ships dynamics engineers, the buoyage team, the programmers, the... and so it goes on.

What makes you think that Titanic is even in SS2010/11/12? Not saying it isn't but I'm not saying that I'm not saying that it isn't, either.

Hope all this information doesn't not help.

RMS Gigantic · « **Reply #34 on:** December 16, 2008, 01:38:32 »

If Titainic wasn't going to be in the next SS, he surely would've posted that news by now!

I can hardly wait for his next tiopic on the TRMA! It will most certainly be a major new development in the SS09 Titanic model!

If not, then the announcement of SS09's international release

Chrystine · « **Reply #35 on:** December 16, 2008, 01:50:04 »

â€œAlas, I think that was a bit too optimistic, with hindsight. In reality, it will be more like Q3, maybe even Q4, I suspect.â€
~ Fred

With some hope of not rupturing any illusions which may entertain with respect to my actual age, I can say that even Q4 really isnâ€™t all that far away eitherâ€¦

As the sage-frog says â€“ Timeâ€™s fun when youâ€™re having flies!

Best regards,

What makes you think he has permission to post about it at all? At this point in the development of SS10, VSTEP does not want any information spread around by any of the people involved, I am sure. And if Jason announces anything, then it will be with VSTEP's permission, or he'll break the rules, and he won't do that, I bet. And once he gets a green light to do that, VSTEP will have announced it to the rest of the world aswell. It's not like your in a special little group that gets to know stuff before the rest does, not unless rules are broken.

And Chrystine, very well said!

RMS Gigantic · « **Reply #37 on:** December 16, 2008, 02:34:54 »

If he's breaking the rules, then he's done bad things in the past several times.

So you think that he jumps the gun when he says "ship simulator NOW available", plus links to the main site where people could go to buy it..?

That's a bit late to be called and easly announcement... that's after the fact.. and he can talk about his work.. Goax talked about his pushboat too, made several topics about it on this forum. That's their own work, that's ok.

And the same goes for his SS08 announcement, it was allready out when he said that.. So how would you be able to tell if release is near, if he announces it after the fact? That was just nonesense then.. $:-\$

Fred

TerryRussell · « **Reply #39 on:** December 16, 2008, 03:02:57 »

Now Fred, don't let facts cloud the illusion/delusion! I guess that if Mr Absolutely Huge Ship wants to believe that the person who creates the Titanic model is actually responsible for authorising the release of Ship Simulator, then no amount of facts will dispell that faith.

Chrystine, when you reach my age, decades seem like hours... You are nowt but a kitten, next to me

Angus can of course traverse the galaxy in what seems like seconds from his viewpoint. (Oh-oh. Ihope he doesn't see this!)

Well, no you weren't, read your own words.

But that's not the point. You said that you expected some early announcements, about titanic, or even the release of the game. You were stating nonesense in an attempt to look like you have some insider information on when the game is going to be released. But in fact no announcement was ever made that wasn't allready made by VSTEP.

Well, it DOES seem I recalled incorrectly, but I still DO enjoy the sneak peaks at Titanic I'll be getting

Ohhhh my, Terry..!
Thatâ€™s just cute!

&nd here I was thinking Iâ€™m older than stardustâ€¦
Please pardon my doubling the chances of Angus seeing your flattery, but should it start going to his head, we might perhaps remind him the Galaxy is after-all not so big in the grand scheme of things â€¦

Best, as ever,

Which is strange when you come to think about it, since every atom insde you that is heavier than Lithium actually came from an exploding star, somewhere or other in this galaxy.

Chrystine · « **Reply #47 on:** December 16, 2008, 12:20:03 »

Yep! ..Very old indeedâ€¦ (From the cosmologically very young Universe).
Although Iâ€™m not at all sure of necessity from â€˜this galaxy.â€™ Could as well have been from Super Novaâ€™s that far antedate our little Milky Way â€“ and by and from which it is itself composed.
Not that we can know with any certainty either wayâ€¦ But it wasnâ€™t yesterday.

Best regards,
Chrystine

P.S. A nice artistic rendering of our lovely galaxy, including a decent view of our tiny little neighborhood on the Perseus spur.
Please pardon me for one so off topic to the Forum. I just couldnâ€™t resist. It's so pretty!
