I have already downloaded and applied the latest 1.5.5. patch. But the multiplayer servers are not updated to this latest patch yet. I can only comnnect to MP servers which have the name (BETA)Vstep Official Server X [1.5.5]. If I want to connect to any regular MP server, I get a notification that the server is not an official Ship Simulator Extremes server.

I have the same problem

To report this problem to Vstep, you can send a message about this problem to info@shipsim.com.

Does anyone know when the steam users will get this update or has it already been released for steam users?

Vstep probably is waiting for the release of the Inland Dlc to launch the new servers with the new ships and the newest patch. Be patient

I have reported this problem to Swenson. It would appear that the patch has included only access to the Beta servers which were for the use of Beta testers only. Oh dear, what a rather unnecessary mess.

Thanks Angus

Yup probably as simple as 'servers have not been updated yet'.

I guess a little patience is in order. Although it would have been nice if the updating of the servers would have been syncronized with the release of the patch.

[MarcusK]

Great!

Just bought the game again after loosing my CD, oh well 

[MokMok]

Will this patch be the final one, or will another patch be released in the future?

[Mad_Fred]

Why, what did you want to see fixed or changed?

There's not going to be any major overhaul anymore that will lead to a drastically better performance.

So other than that, what did you have in mind if I may ask?

I would like much more quality settings options, like Virtual Sailor/Vehicle Simulator does, to improve performance.

[Mad_Fred]

So by putting some more sliders in the options menu the game would suddenly magically work better you reckon? 

That would require those things to actually do something, which means an overhaul of the category that I mentioned wasn't really planned anymore.

Yes, that is what I reckon. Why does Virtual Sailor/Vehicle Simulator have a better performance than SSE2010 does?

[Mad_Fred]

I don't know.. I haven't seen the innards of that software...  errm..   Cause it's not really simulating as much underneath the outdated visuals?? 

[Captain Cadet]

While your going on about no major rehalls, does this mean that we're not going to have a new ship sim game coming soon? Just wondering as I think it's odd for no major rehalls or no news on a game which from what I under stand has sold over half a million copies!

[zetagundam12]

steam version has not yet been applyed patch 1.5.5 we would like that patch being done as soon as possible thank you

A SDK would be very very helpful.
As for those extra "sliders", just free up the ones in the "Ocean Setting" dialog, please.
But a Software development might be very helpful for those willing to take up the challenge.

Still waiting for a detailed changelog

[zetagundam12]

Steam has not updated the game yet i really wonder what's going on! steam are that lazy?!

[Mad_Fred]

simple answer.. yes. 


Well, no that's not fair. I guess they just have their priorities, I wouldn't call them lazy. But they SHOULD be quicker than this if you ask me.

Unfortunately Vstep has no power over that.

There should be one attached to the official release topic.  Here you go (http://download.shipsim.com/Extremes/patches/ShipSimExtremes_Update_1.5.5.txt)

It's the one i copy pasted in the first post.

But for example, the note about all the ship changes tells nothing, what was changed? How? That's what i was asking

[The Sailing Dutchman]

I just noticed something.

Yesterday I tested with some friends the oceana in a private server. She was also in a Beta server. And it works great.

But now they updated the servers to 1.5.5 and the Oceana is in NONE of the servers.

Greetings,

Koen

What is an SDK?
