179 New AI ships released

That is very good news!

I have immensely enjoyed your package in P3D. Working in the shipping industry for 18 years and and loving/flying aeroplanes at the same time I may say that your models are incredibly accurate and lifelike and have livened up the sim's oceans.

Cheers Dave, and here is a small preview of one of the upcoming ships - the Danish Thetis class arctic patrol frigate. Together with the Knud Rasmussen class above this is the backbone in the Danish naval presence in the North Atlantic. Almost ready in the virtual yard.

Wow, awesome detail on that ship. Looks perfect for some helicopter ops!

 

[Dimus]

Speaking of helo ops, I've seen you marked some bulker hatch covers with the H mark. Are these actually hardened to land on?

Yes, all the ships with an H marked on decks or platforms have hard surfaces for helicopters or ultralights.

Excellent!

Off for surprise port state inspection!

After a bit of testing with help from Wallydog and fellow simmers around the world I have today posted a fix correcting the display of wakes for some of my AI ships in P3Dv2.5 on simviation, avsim, and flightsim. You can find the fix here: http://simviation.com/1/download-file?file=FIX_Ship_Wakes_P3DV25_VERSION2-1.zip&fileId=48377
It resolves the issue of vertical wakes on some of my ships in P3Dv2.5. It is not needed for earlier versions of P3D than version 2.5.​

As a guy who spent 21+ years in the ocean freight industry working for various container shipping lines, I am so pleased to have this addon to FSX!!! Especially around major ports like Rotterdam and Hong Kong, etc where the world simply isnt "as real as it gets" without the maritime traffic.

Much appreciate the effort.

kind regards
Eric
