If you download software which is for specific hardware that you don't have, why on earth would you expect it to work?  ::)

Saying it is a bug is unfair to the developers. The only bug is in your actions.  ???

And to say that the sound is better is not right either.

Too funny.. just opened up the forum, hit the anouncement and wondered what amBX was anyways...


so boys... GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND.

Pretty neat system, i knew there was ambilight before on HDTV's that Philips made, but now they evolved it a bit further, neat stuff for sure.


Downloading the patch without the hardware.... would indeed be silly.

(So basically that anouncement has a commercial hint to it, hope the VSTEP-/shipsimforum-guys get some extra funds for promoting sayd system  ;)  )

Frank

 i did downloaded the patch, i have the system, and it works fine, but i was not sure about the improved things that it was said to have and ... and also the game use to be version 1.4.2 but now it went down to 1.4.1, is that a bad thing or good thing?

Do you mean the radio sounds? They might be the new things you are talking about.

Bad probably.

Neither the horn sounds nor the radio patch will affect the version number. they have absolutely no effect  on the workings of the game. Trust me, that's the way I designed them!

When you say that it is now V1.4.1, where are you seeing that? On the bottom left of the opening screen when you start Ship Simualtor?

Sorry, my friend, I don't understand where you see this number.

When you start ship simulator, what number does it show in the opening menu?
Sorry if I'm being daft.

Terry, I think the Ambx download will reset the version number to 1.4.1 because that was the version number when the Ambx download was made. I would guess that Ambx might change the sound files to be compatible with the system.
Third Mate says he has “the system”. Does he mean the Ambx hardware? If so, then installing the 1.4.2 patch is probably not a good idea.

Hi Marty.

I was guessing that was what he was finding, but you know me. I like certainty.

So, as he has installed a 1.4.1 version on the top of 1.4.2, inevitably, some files won't get overwritten by the installer, because they are more recent. So the system could be a mixture of 1.4.1 and 1.4.2.

Perhaps.... Something to watch out for though.

Fortunately Captain Best says he has no problems, just concerned about it showing as 1.4.1. "Leave well alone" is probably the (captain) best thing .

One problem in mixing different derivatives such as Ambx or Elbe & Furie is that the latest file in 1.4.2, say, might replace on older but correct file for one of the derivatives.
