Ahoy Capt'n Best,
I bought the boxed version at http://www.furie.nl/
It just costs â‚¬URO 15,00 plus postage

. You have to require the info about the postage-fee to Norway at that same address. Inside Holland it was â‚¬URO 2,50

Be aware of a minor bug

concerning the Horn from the Elbe and the whistle of the Furie. You can read in this topic about it.
Regards
Aad

Hmm, seems like theres hardly any smoke coming from the Furie's funnel. That stinks since shes a steam, needs a nice flow of smoke

Aad The Pirate · « **Reply #80 on:** June 29, 2008, 00:35:53 »

You're so right. That's one of my wishes for any patch/add-on or new version of Ship Simulator.
In the stand-alone version of the Elbe and Furie edition ther's a nice steamwhistle hearable at the Furie, but the nice steam-plume is not visible.

Yeah, she's missing the beautiful smoke blanket coming out of her funnel, will VSTEP actually fix that in the English version? I must say i had no idea Elbe was so big and beautiful, ohh mannnnn im hungy for Elbe and FURIE NOW even more

.Great pictures by the way, i think ill run these vessles 24-7, i love these kind so much

.Also when a steam tug blows its whistle heavy white smoke comes out.......ohhh if only Furie would have that, i could pay 5 extra euro for the boat....

Well, there are a few pictures available from the internet, showing that there is almost no smoke to see above the "Furie" funnel. But it would be great to have a white steam stream from the whistle of course!

Yes, we encourage VSTEP to add black/gray/pale kind of smoke to Furie as if adds more power on the engine, and evrytime she blows her whiste white smoke coming out of her pipe spreading out randomly and loosely and slowly fading away after releasing the H button.And if those 2 addintions will be added, than SHE wiil BEE a MASTERPICE!

See below.

well then just wait for the download if it is out ontime it should be this week

Master Captain · « **Reply #85 on:** June 29, 2008, 14:38:13 »

yes, having steam and billowing smoke would make this model awesome!

Aad The Pirate · « **Reply #86 on:** June 29, 2008, 14:51:48 »

Must be possible. If anyone of You has ever seen the steamtrain models on Microsoft Train Simulator You know what I'm talking 'bout.
I will look for some awesome screenshots to show those people who are not familair with MSTS

On the other hand Michael, Elbe needs to have her einspritzers replaced.

Aad The Pirate · « **Reply #88 on:** June 29, 2008, 16:33:00 »

Here some screenshots as steamengines work in MSTS
And one from the Furie WITH smoke

Bottman · « **Reply #89 on:** June 29, 2008, 16:44:00 »

To be honest, as I have firstly seen the "Furie" I asked VSTEP to improve her smoke. But after an internet research and a few kind words from the developers, I have to agree: there is no smoke. Well, your picture looks much more like a good old not environmental friendly steamer!

Cheers

LucAtC · « **Reply #90 on:** June 29, 2008, 16:50:27 »

MV Greenpeace could have been sold to become Elbe just because of her dysfunctioning injectors, but Furie has a fuel oil burner and emitting black fatty smoke is more a sign of sleepy engineer(s).
I think the picture was taken before his awakening?

So you are saying that she is a modern steamer huh? Usualy there is alot of smoke coming out of that funnel of that kind of ship, but if there isnt than that must mean she is NOT coal fired.If not that what is she running on? But then can still make the white smoke right? come on im running on dry here peoples

, blah... environmentally friendly steamer, a true ship has nice smoke shooting out, around gray/black/white-ish colour, but not too much depending of the throttle power.So it must mean that is releasing like heat and some smoke....hmmm how odd..

pauljanaway1 · « **Reply #94 on:** June 30, 2008, 09:49:26 »

your right she is not coal fired but she is by oil

HA

, that must explain why VSTEP has not added much smoke at all on to it.But as i looked today at a similar tug, true she was not shooting smoke but like heat waves that you could see, like wavey kind of air radiating off out of the funnel, so maybe VSTEP can make that instead of nothing and that should fully complete her.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vPwG2EXBcE - something like this, just look carefully at the steam (roughly)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_Tug_Wattle - here's an example of a oil stem tug, maybe similar to Furie and max RPM

Just out of curiosity i searched "Elbe" and http://www.fritscherfamily.com/immigr_elbe.htm is what it came up with, but this ship looks different from this Elbe

Shipaddict · « **Reply #97 on:** June 30, 2008, 11:42:48 »

Well maybe they are different ships

With the same name.

pauljanaway1 · « **Reply #98 on:** June 30, 2008, 13:05:31 »

yes there are many ships with the same name if each ship had a different name we would run out of things to call ships. there are also 3 britannics

Third Mate · « **Reply #99 on:** July 04, 2008, 09:25:56 »

FURIE IS HERE
