Software Development Kit- i think

I would like that ShipSim Extremes would become Open Source. I think that an SDK would be very helpfull in this case.

[Mad_Fred]

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

Well... it's basically a lot to do with dynamics..  in simple terms, 'to make the ships behave in a more realistic manner'.

You can't really put that in more detailed words, really.

That's not very likely to happen, you can be pretty sure of that.

The new multiplayer server creation UI is Awesome!!
I love how you can choose what ships you want on the server instead of the old version where it was only the dlc ships you could choose.

Thats sweet!

Hey guys,

I was searching the steam forums for a friend as to why the steam version of SSE has the wrong build version but the latest patch.

Seems that the steam users have the fixes/updates but steam failed to apply the new build version update, I saw a post of it on the steam forums. Hopefully steam fixes this really quick and is certainly not the first time i've seen steam make this mistake-- (arma 3 beta)

[Mad_Fred]

I believe they have also made that mistake once before with ShipSim. 

[boatsimrocks25]

Yes they made the same mistake with 1.5.0.
Now instead of waiting on VStep©, we are waiting on Steam to change the build number to read-- 1100 1.5.5.  A couple friends told me that they have the newest patch fixes/updates but there version number still read 1.5.0.

Someone poke Steam

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

I have just checked and she is missing.

Yes yes, but then again, which ships had the most changes to the dynamics? I just want to know what to focus on to see if i can see differences

Thanks for the reply anyway btw.

[boatsimrocks25]

Anyone know when Steam is going to fix their mistake in the build version info?
Also is there maybe a temporary fix for steam users while Steam fixes the error in the build number version?

[Sunseekeringo]

A big respect from my side that VSTEP still cares for Shipsim. Many games/simulators are not being improved once they are released.

But it seems that users expect with an update a complete new simulator...I guess this expectation is a bit too much..then it´s likely called SS Ultimate or so...but we are still talking about updates..

So thanks for a new update.

When slowly waking up from a looong wintersleep, I noticed, the Freedom90 can go on land now... wow! That´s quite a big step for me... what a great surprise!

She doesn´t behave like a hovercraft, buuut,... a first step is taken and I really honor that! Thanks... and keep on!

[Waterprank]

Yes,.. that´s steam! They do this on quite a lot of games,... but I´m sure they only want you to get very happy, when you notice, also it is the old Version, it ist suddenly working, what a surprise!

Hey guys, when i try to install the game I see this error, what must I do?

Try putting that update file in your Ship sim extremes folder and run it as administrator. not sure what to do if that doesn't work though.
If you got the Steam version then Steam will update the game automatically.

I wonder how long its going to take Steam to change the build number then upload the tiny patch to fix it, We need to poke Steam.

[Mad_Fred]

Are you installing the game, or the patch?

Because this error might occur if you try to apply the patch that Vstep released, whilst you actually have the Steam version of the game installed.

How can I put it in my ShipSim Extremes folder?

Post edited for offensive language.

[Mad_Fred]

No need for that kind of language on a forum of a company that can't really help that either, though.

boatsimrocks25 I unziped the update with 7-zip and now i can join multiplayer (I couldn't before http://80.95.161.114/shipsim/forum/index.php/topic,30101.msg394245.html#msg394245)

Thanks!

Yes Steam did apply the patch to the game, but they quickly shut down the update to avoid more people getting the wrong build number issue. If you check the forums section on the Steam UI theres multiple posts of people who have the latest update but the wrong build numbers.
Its a problem thats happened with multiple games and it's Not Vstep's fault that Steam screwed up.

So if you want to rage at someone, rage at Steam for making a mistake that they do with lots of games. For Arma 3 Beta it took them a couple weeks to fix the tiny number mishap.

Not only does she go on land, but she is also far more controllable and it
is easy now to get her to steer a steady course.

The Jumbo Javelin still doesn't have a staircase or the teleport function that it had in 2008. Once i'm on the deck of the ship there's no way to get back to the bridge.

Why I can't come in Oceana interior? Near stars is invisible wall..
