i have a great idea!I was watching the show "deadliest catch"and i thought "It would be great if ship sim came out with an update for biger waves" so i watched the show and they said the waves were as high as 30 meters.It would be great if a 30 meter wave add-on came out!

Yeas! i have seen on the youtube people makes the waves biger and here its a link to the video. he show how to do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKDDgUtke2s&feature=related

You cannot get higher waves in SS08, at the moment.

There is a 'loophole' that some people have used, in V1.0, which is closed down in all newer versions.
With an illegal file edit, that will lose you your rights to technical support and your warranty, you can make the waves higher, but the ships will not behave realistic, nor will it look very good.

so you cant make them biger? but the its biger waves in sse i see on the video:D

SSE will have bigger waves. How much bigger, we will have to wait and see.

they didnt say 30 meter they said 30 feet 30ft=10m

[McGherkin]

30M waves... 

That's nearly 100 feet

That's nearly 100 feet 

Higher waves than that do occur in some places: Bass Strait, for example.

[McGherkin]

Yeah, but imagine trying to sail Elbe though it...

[mvsmith]

Better than taking a sailing yacht through it, as happened.

guess i will have to sell my ss08colectors adishion when sse comes out

[matt5674]

You don't have to sell it.
and 150 foot wall of water? That's Insane! If Bass Strait is in SSE with those type of waves, danger, Poseidon's Cursed waters

[mvsmith]

Unfortunately, Bass Strait is not in SSE, but it does point out that extreme waves, such as that 140-footer, are beyond the ability of any ship to handle. So there is little point in having such waves in SS.

[jayhawk cruises]

50 foot waves would be cool thought

[mvsmith]

It is certainly possible for the ships in SS to react realistically in 50-foot waves… by capsizing and sinking.
