Jim,
Unzip the attached file and replace your .bgl with these.
The RN should make it into port

That is why this forum is the best place ever for Flight Simulation (and Boats!).
Joe, a thousand Thank You's.

Joe,
Gary,
Your help and advice has led to a whole new set of skills that I've kind of been getting the hang of today and will go on studying and hopefully become conversant with.
Watching the convoy manoeuvre in and out of Pompey today according to courses set in .kml files, converted to .bgl, and timings, etc, has been great.
Isn't this a wonderful hobby and what a great place SOH is.
Thank you both so much,
Jim

Hi Jim,
Would you mind sending me the corrected files for inclusion in a future update? Sorry for not seeing your posts yesterday, but happy to see it solved.

And ps...
Just found this little video on youtube including ships from the project and also other sources including ODG.
And pps...
Plenty of new ships are on their way...

Henrik,
Bear in mind the changes I had made and those of Jim are with respect to ORBX scenery. They may not be workable for the generic FSX or P3D scenery. You have very successfully produced routes for the thousands(?) of your ships. Be careful not to fall down the slippery slope of "make it correct for all simulators and all variations of scenery".
@ Jim - You found my PM helpful, eh ?

I will test them in FSX standard, however the routes are generally optimized for ORBX Vector and diverse photo sceneries as they generally match Google Earth - that method with Google Earth however does have the flaw that small "things" in the sea tend to be omitted by Google Earth so I have had ships sitting solid on small rocks forgotten by Google but not by ORBX or even FSX standard. Anyway, somewhere in the manual it tells that you will have some stranded ships once in a while especially if just using FSX standard - e.g. for Amazonas river traffic FSX is just hopeless.

Henrik, good news

I didnt notice any ships or boat in MSFS with slider 50%, see this corner for MSFS http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php/120826-Did-you-see-here-any-boats .

Marc alias Flying V has managed to move the whole package into MSFS in one go - I will test and return in the coming days, but for those curious you can find the tuto in French here: http://www.pilote-virtuel.com/viewtopic.php?id=51877&p=104
There might be some issues with a few models, but overall it seems to work.

Great Work - Amazing
Well I finally have this amazing package working in FSX. What a delight, brings the world to life in more ways than one. I just want to say thank you to Kl791 and others and to say how much this is appreciated and enjoyed. As I tend to do a lot of flying boat simming - to get this working and to be constantly surprised but who or what turns up is just great. Today I was testing some new scenery for Madeira and had the Solent flying boat in Funchal Harbour. There was a big white portugese 4 master and several other merchantmen coming and going and the odd liner or two. Very very impressive.
A humbling experience was that I could not get them to show for a very long time and I finally found the culprit(s) several old FS9 traffic bgl's that had been lurking on my system. With them cleaned out - all appeared as if by magic. Now to see how it goes with P3DV5 (another job for another time!)
So again thank you and when the classic ships become available - add me to the list!

Couple of Screenshots
Yeah I know but I am excited:
JBK Short Solent FSX - Funchal Harbour (Aerosoft Madeira Scenery) Plus ORBX.

Today starts Beta Testing, not of anything for MSFS, but a complete set of around 200 ships from the sixties and routes across the world including e.g. New York, Miami, Havana, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Buenos Aires, Le Havre, Brest, Southampton for P3D and FSX..[/FONT]

Lockdown has its' advantages... Yesterday I managed to pack the Beta of the sixities Classic Ship AI Traffic and today I got back on the Falklands package working on models of the Argentinian Gearing and Sumner Class destroyers involved. First ARA Comodoro Py ex-DD877 USS Perkins.
And here a few more screenshots from the beta test of the Classic AI Ship Traffic
