I don't know if this has been pointed out before, but a screenshot of rotterdam on the SS website looks much different to mine which was taken at the same location...

Screenshot off the SS website:


My version is attached.

Your point is?

My point is why is it different? I have the latest version of SS, 1.4.2.
My graphics is maxxed out, so why is there a difference?

[CaptainMike1]

Maybe the ss website view is from Pro?

Or maybe it's from a beta version that later got stripped to preserve performance and not raise the system requirements too much. Wouldn't be the first time an image from the website cannot be replicated in the game.

Pick the rotterdam enviroment, and I think it's the 2nd image at the bottom of the page.

It isn't from Pro, Pro has it's own website. www.shipsimpro.com
The www.shipsim.com website is for the game version, not the Pro version.

EDIT: Possible, Fred.

[Mad_Fred]

Highly likely even..

Thats what I was thinking, I'm starting to get a little worried that I may not be able to run the next SS on this computer, time for a new one I think, even though, this is a brilliant oul' box

Fred should know!

Fred should know!

Did I ever doubt that?

Don't worry.. your shot, that's what it looks like for me aswell!

And well.. I am not 100% sure here of course, or I would have said that, but I know that other screenshots in the environment and ships sections of the website have pre-release features in them that are not in the game now. So it's logical that this is the same. Hence, highly likely.

It is not from Pro, nor from SS 2008. The bridge is not even the same. I think it is from KLM’s in-flight magazine.
