I love big ships,and the difficulty's for handling these vessels.
I wish it was more detailed.

I agree

[Traddles]

You make a very valid point there Aad. Those of us who are English speakers should always be aware of this problem. For an example, I sadly have no other languages, having spent many years at sea where English is the Lingua Franca. (I'm not even certain that is the correct expression.

... I did notice one thing though..and I am curious if others have had this.  I NEVER get bad frame rates or "studdering" with this game, but if I play the Marseille departure with the tugs..it really hesitates.  I notice in this mission the the bulkcarrier has gray hatches, instead of red, like in all the others, and am curious if this vessel might be a high "poly" model ?
Best Regards,

Hi Galen,

I played the mission on a laptop, not the swiftest system, and got red hatches and a playable frame rate. (no stuttering, but the true ship speed was much less than indicated)
Perhaps you were low on available memory after playing SS for some time without restarting the computer.
Similar symptoms can occur when running under Win7, which is not really supported for SS 2008.

Hey Marty..

I went to the Mission editor, and "Killed" some of the static, and AI traffic..this helped.  However, in free roam, if I start, right after a mission, the vessel will not show up...   I must close out, and restart the Sim for it to work, and the program to work properly.  I must say..I will do anything to get this ship to run, I have been waiting for a long time for a "Bulker".  Any Ideas would be great.  Everything else works great, and I am up to date, on XP with a DELL XPS 600, 4 GB, an an Ividia 9400 graphics card.  61 percent free on memory...

I went back to reinstall ship simulator 2008 and works well.
but when you install new horizons stopped working may be a useful aid.


already installed the patch ShipSim2008.Update.v13-v142
and fix everything
It works well

Hoy Aad,
Yes, that would be a very better idea.
Its what i said in my first reply.

now that they've made a bulkship make a bulk crane. model it from the container crane

[mvsmith]

There already exists a bulk “crane”. It is in another VSTEP product. It is very different from the container crane.

[Firestar]

Does it seem that VSTEP would include it in the next version of SS?

sse, yes possibly true

[Firestar]

And how do you know this?

[Stuart2007]

It's all Ok & maybe possible but is there any point in having another almost the same floating white box, or another 4-funneled floating pice of disaster, or even the 2nd 1:1 acid tug? 


The previous ones were new ships in SS as player objects.

I agree so much with this, that I feel it justifiable to just quote it rather than write something new.

[mvsmith]

Perhaps you dozed off, Stu, but the current object of discussion is not a ship.

[Stuart2007]

Oh I am sorry, Marty. I saw the topic title and just assumed it was about "Re: New vessel "Selsey III"bulkcarrier,what do you think about it"

Clearly I am mistaken then... I wonder why no mention has been made by a Moderator that it is off-topic...

Perhaps the moderators assumed that one would be intelligent enough to actually read the posts before replying to them.

I think the correct expression is that Polish is now the Lingua Franca

Dzien Dobrze!

EDIT: that is meant to say that I work on a ship with Polish officers, please feel free to correct it if I am wrong.

How FAR OFF TOPIC can you go!?

[marcstrat]

Hoy,
Yes, Stuart is right guy's,please stay on topic.

Marc

[dexter7]

And how do you know this?

i meant to say maybe

[mvsmith]

Hi Marc,
The posts about the bulk crane that Stu objected to are really on topic because the Bulk Crane or bulk loader is a companion to the bulk ship in the same way that the pontoon and vacuumtower are part of Jumbo Javelin.

Hoy,
Yes,but the polish writing was not realy on topic,i think.
Marc

[mvsmith]

Hi Marc,

I agree. Unfortunately it seems that many topics are seen as places to post irrelevant chat. I’ve come to expect that on this board.

When that irresponsible behavior takes place on support boards where people are looking for real help, I find it execrable and inexcusable.
 
Fortunately there are only a small number of thoughtless people who engage in that rude and silly behavior.

Regards,
Marty

Hoy,
Sometimes it goes off topic very easely,and without direct knowing it happens.Even i had it a couple of times in the very beginning of the old forum.
Thats why,i look first if it goes ontrack again by itself,that happens to.Now this time one of our fellow members pointed it to me.And i think he was right to.
Thanks for the reply.
I hope that this topic stays ontrack now,we shall see.
Marc
