Global AI Ship Traffic V1 for FSX and P3D News and Support

Wakes that go vertical in P3D V3.4

The solution is
"open the effects fx_wake_s, fx_wake_ss, and fx_wake_l with notepad and check if they contain the parameter:

TempK=107.00
TempRate=0.01

or

TempK=109.00
TempRate=0.01

both will provoke that wakes rise to the sky and they are not a part of a normal fsx wake effect.
You can edit them out with notepad, or if you have a back-up overwirte them with the original wake effects.

Hi Dave,
Sorry for late reply but I have been working in China lately where Sim-outhouse isn't accesible... Well, the net is there for a reason... and behind that you see a bit of laziness...

On the next model I haven't been that lazy. The French and Morocan Floreal class with five different versions. The Panther is provided by Bernard Juniot.

Have you thought of maybe a few small release collections..?
Would love to see this and that carrier in AI Carriers...
 
Ahoy Seahawk, first Bravo and Well Done! wonderful effort. Having first gone to sea before the container age, the new styles and types of ships are a shock for me, as I have not been at sea for some decades now. But i greatly admire and appreciate your effort it is one of the most significant expansions of the FSX virtual world yet achieved, similar to the AI Passenger and Freight Plane traffic developed for FS9. Thank you.

it will be an eye opener for me to explore your new nautical world...wonderful work and thanks again.

Hi CrisGer,
I am only an admirer like yourself.
Most of these incredible ships and impressive amount of work belong to "kl791".
He is deserving of your praise and my heartfelt thanks.

Water Drain Effect

Does any one know of of an "effect" that looks like water pouring from an overboard discharge..?
I found one, (fx_dss_ddg_drain.fx) but its pouring in the wrong direction...
 
After some time in China where SOH is apparently banned, here are some screendumps with work-in-progress

I have a suggestion for a future update. How about the Crab fleet out of Dutch Harbor AK? Would be kinda cool to see them heading out and back.

Really nice Henrik!

I still owe you those "Whales" data. Will get to it asap.

Thanks - I will head back to China next Sunday so it would be great if you can send it before - it can keep me entertained in the evenings in the hôtels :D And regards to the Valemax, I found the Vale Brasil in Significant Ships, so that one will be next - i would like to have at least 7 of the big ones to do routes with new models every day. I am working with a Brazilian designer who is doing Vale's Ponta Madeira port and Sao Luis, and it was possible to identify Berge Stahl and the China Steel Succes as some of the ships present on the photoreal - that gave the topdown view. Not 100% precise but absolutely okay for the illusion. I have tried to increase the detail level a bit on the deck as both types will serve as helicopter landing pads - I even put a full hard deck on Berge Stahl for ultralights :D

I recently joined the Type 21 club! - HMS Ambuscade



Henrik kindly gave me permission to use the hull from his Niteroi class frigate and supplied me with the source files. I've built a new superstructure on top to create the Amazon class for the Royal Navy. Early days yet still to animate the radar, create the textures for the other hull numbers, add 'non exocet' variant (Antelope/early Amazon), harden flight deck, night textures etc etc. Once complete i'll pass on to Henrik to add to any future release.

Cheers

That looks great!!!!! I look forward to the final version. I will start on the "Sir Galahad" sometime soon when I get tired of doing mega-ships...
 
I took a leaf out of your book and I'm trying to structure the model in such a way that I can re-use components and textures for a Type 42 Batch 1 - that's a long way off though unless you beat me to it!

:encouragement:

:wiggle: That "book" is good... It allows for important time savings... if I was doing everything from scratch I would probably still be working on the first package..... I did a 400.000 tons bulkcarrier yesterday - probably half the elements and also half the texture sheet are reuse from´previous models. With navy ships it is obvious to reuse e.g. armament, antennas, people...

Hi Gaz,
I realized that the class is apparently still active in Pakistan though with a Harpoon missile launcher. If you have a Harpoon launcher from another ship it would be great to have a Pakistani model also - if you don't I can ship you one.

Hi. Henrik,

Looking at the Tariq class the main differences appear to be some are fitted with harpoon and some are fitted with a chinese LY-60 SAM in place of MM-38 exocet. Phalanx CIWS in place of sea cat, and some minor radar mods. So yes it's doable! I can knock up a Chinese SAM launcher and a phalanx so if you can send me a harpoon launcher I'll make a Tariq class variant once I've finished the type 21's

cheers
