what do I do? is there a way to download a patch to make '06 into '08?

You can't upgrade SS06 to SS08. You should buy SS08 like you did with SS06.

No, surely. Have you not had enjoyment from 2006 and had your moneys worth? Time moves on... I've just played 08 and it is leagues ahead. Well worth it.

Yes, I had the same problem when I tried to run it from my laptop.

Well, the minimum spec has been well published. But if it won't run 06 forget it running 08. The graphics card in my desktop was cheap enough and runs it nicely. FULL settings.

What's your problem? >.>
And I'm not a "dude".
Hate that word. It sounds so rude and mean.

Greetings,
Maybe you can use the 2006-version to get more people interested in the game,which i do.
Afther the release of the 2008-version,it will be no use anymore for the users of the new game.
Like i 've seen on this forum,please dont eat it,you'll have some problem with the plastic cover.
Regards
Marc

'Dude', relax. If you have a problem with anyone, you can press the 'report to moderator' button. So far being rude hasn't helped anyone on this forum. In the contrary.

About your question: shipsim 2008 is a new product, like windows vista isn't windows XP and flightsimulator 2004 isn't flightsimulator X. That means that shipsim 2006 cannot be upgraded to shipsim 2008. Furthermore, if you have doubts about if your computer can handle the game, take a look at the technical FAQ. The minimum system requirements are in the FAQ: http://www.shipsim.com/ShipSimForum/index.php/topic,635.0.html

C'mon $:-\$
This topic goes about eating discs and the word ''dude''.
wtf

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #17 on:** July 18, 2007, 23:07:28 »

Hi Neis

It is wrong to assume people will only buy a game to play... Some people do find that they can make a healthy balanced diet out of CD discs.

In your language, they would call you a "mierenneuker", why do you have so much critics?

If I would have so much critics as you, I would have had a hart attack.
