There hasn't been any new posts here for nearly a year now.

When I got SS06 in 2008 (I only bought an outdated on because it was a bargain) there were so many new posts every 5 minutes (even though SS08 was out). Just thought I would relieve the SS06 forum back to the surface.

In a couple of quarters no one will talk about SS08 either.

rsstn · « **Reply #2 on:** June 07, 2010, 14:38:23 »

I take it the crowds are in the SSE section. For now, i'm happy with SS06.

I have both, and I still use SS06 from time to time

Hoy,
Since the 2008 version is it realy more quite on the 2006 area of this forum.However not everyone has purchased the 2008 version,who had the 2006 version first.
Some people just bought it just for curriosity,to find out that everything is in real time setting and i remember some of them just wanted to have fun with bounsing other members.The 2006 version was not able to that.
Also some guy's are not realy interested in the marineworld,but just used it as another simgame.To find out that Flightsim at that time was more interested.
By this i wrote also something on the 2006 area,since a long time ago.
I hope you like the reply

Marc

I prefer the 2006 Titanic telegraph-style engine controls to the engine controls in SS08 and the Titanic Superpack

They replace them with standard throttle controls in regular 08, then the Titanic superpack has non-Titanic-style telegraphs that cannot both be controlled at the same time.

To go back to the start of the thread:

I'm thinking about buying SS06. It's cheap and doses at least not do any harm.

I've played the demo some days ago, and found out, that there are some features, that I even prefer in SS06 - of course there are other things, that are better in SS08. But for the pricer of 2-3 euro ...

But - which version do I need? Is the add-on includes in the platinum version. There are some sellers out there, who offer a "double pack", consisting of SS06 (non-platinum) and add-on 1. Has anybody outside Germany ever heard of the platinumm version, or is it a special German marketing gag?

Can the shipyard-ships be used in SS06?

Sorry, but no: Those vessels are only for Ship Simulator 2008 version 1.4.2. Again, sorry to inform you.

krytsch · « **Reply #10 on:** June 13, 2010, 15:15:50 »

no problem at all!

Does anybody know obout the other questions?

TJK · « **Reply #11 on:** June 13, 2010, 15:57:07 »

Hi

i think the platinum edition are only for Dutch and/ or German costumers but we have the SS06 gold edition that have the add ones pack in it

rsstn · « **Reply #12 on:** June 13, 2010, 17:59:40 »

Gold version is basically SS06 + the addon on one disk-so only one installation etc.
It is definately worth getting if you want SS06!

krytsch · « **Reply #13 on:** June 13, 2010, 19:31:36 »

Thank you, TJK and rsstn.

So I finally bought it, the platinum edition - just as a supplement. And because it runs so smooth, even on an old computer. Maybe I'll install it in my girlfriend's pc.
69 cent for the game an 3 euro for shipping (thx for the link, TJK)

i use ss06 from time to tome to but. i gona to play sse much more when it come out. but ss06 gona be a good game.

Captain. Mitch · « **Reply #16 on:** June 19, 2010, 16:55:10 »

I'm also playing the SS2006 from time to time.

The main reason is off course the MAGA YACHT!

It's the greatest vessel that i ever seen, also there are some more things what are better.
Somehow it's intersting to sail in SS2006.

I'l play it more... i'l never stop play it...

Kind regards.
Capt. Mitch

It is!

MVEsperanza · « **Reply #19 on:** June 19, 2010, 21:56:52 »

The only thing i dont like about 06 is that there is No Free Roam so thats why i only play it every so often and i like the Mega Yacht

Captain. Mitch · « **Reply #20 on:** June 20, 2010, 11:33:32 »

The SS2006 is great, also the yacht is great. Even the players, who don't like yachts and passenger ships, like these yacht from SS2006, so it really bothers me, why ther's no yacht in the SS2008 or they could repair that disaster by putting the yacht in SSE, but nothing about that.

That's really sad

! I would really like to sail that yacht with all those great effects, and envirorments in SSE! $:-\$

Yea, that's the only problem, so usually when i am playing the SS2006 i'm playing the mission 3, The mega yacht in Phi Phi islands, but that's a mission...

And also, after some time, it crashes, but it's OK.

Kind regards.
Capt. Mitch

I used to like that yacht too, a very nice vessel to have in. Hopefully we'll have it again sometime or something similar.

Mike

rsstn · « **Reply #22 on:** June 20, 2010, 11:46:11 »

I agree

It is a great ship and it would be great to have it in SSE!

Captain. Mitch · « **Reply #23 on:** June 20, 2010, 14:16:06 »

How do you know we'l have it or something similar?

It looks VSTEP is not interested in passangers vessels...

That yacht was the best vessel in the SS2006, and they didn't ad it it any add-on, The Shipyard, or anything...
They could make it for The Shipyard at least...

It's so hard for souch a nice vessel???

There is a very nice model of the mega yacht Pelorus on Turbo Squid, they could include that in??

But there are just small chances for that! $:-\$

Kind regards.
Captain Mitch

oceandream · « **Reply #24 on:** June 20, 2010, 14:31:58 »

Yes i wish too see the pelorus
