June 29, 201510 yr Hi Pilots, there is a new website for the marine AI traffic available. The site is reachable at www.SimDocks.de. Website and Forum are in German and English language and via translation button (the small flags in the top area) in 11 additional languages. Grüße / Greetings aus / from Hamburg (the most beautiful city in the world) Manfred

June 30, 201510 yr I take it, that if you already have everything installed, OTHER than the 80 new ships file...that is the only file you need to download and install, right?
June 30, 201510 yr Author Yes, that is correct, the new file 80 AI Ships and AI Ship Traffic just goes on top of the rest; you have to accept overwriting a number of traffic.bgl's - that is it.
June 30, 201510 yr Yes, that is correct, the new file 80 AI Ships and AI Ship Traffic just goes on top of the rest; you have to accept overwriting a number of traffic.bgl's - that is it. Henrik..that is what I thought...and that's what I did..only downloaded the 80 AI, and WOW...WOW...ship traffic now out of Alaska! That brought alive, the entire scene near Misty Fjords. I haven't had the time (hopefully tonight) to fully explore this new file and its areas of operation,...but for the few areas that I have seen...to you and all...thank you SO MUCH! This was the true under-developed frontier for flight simulation fans...and now, no more dead and sterile seas, lakes, and rivers. Again, thank you so much! An incredible vision and project. Mitch
June 30, 201510 yr Tusen takk for at sjø og hav ble langt mer realistisk til deg Henry og resten av teamet :smile: ( I was saying thank you to Henry and the team on norwegian about this add-ons where sea really comes to life) :smile: Paal Bernhardsen
June 30, 201510 yr Author Selv tak With ORBX and all the fantastic freeware from Norway + the ships I think Norway is becoming one of the nicest places to fly.
June 30, 201510 yr This looks marvelous! Should I erase FSX's default Ship AI Traffic? Off centre landing is my passion
July 1, 201510 yr This looks marvelous! Should I erase FSX's default Ship AI Traffic? Don't erase anything...just set your SHIPS to 10 percent, and you are good to go. Default won't show up...but all your new traffic will.
July 1, 201510 yr Commercial Member Just thought I would chime in to say a big THANK YOU with this upgrade for P3D. After installing the many files in the past I was seeing issues with my wakes and ships bunching up into a star shape? All pointing outwards. Figured I would have to take time to clean up my mess to make ready for this new upgrade. SO I just copied over everything and in my first visit with AI ships... WoW! Appears the upgrade fixed all my issues. I saw no less than a half dozen ships off the coast of San Diego, California. And from what I was to think, this area was not even on the radar for your AI ships. But I caught my first ship steaming (yes, smoke bellowing out), of Coronado Bay and a tanker at San Diego terminal. I was giddy! Tell me, I see an aircraft carrier entering port . I see no markings (USS Midway?), and was wondering if that is one of your ships or an P3D default? Only reason I ask is because the vehicles on it are floating around a 100 feet or so above the deck, ha! Also want to mention how nice the User's Manual is. Usually created as an afterthought by many developers but I can you (and your team), put thought and effort into that. A big plus. All-n-all a superb add-on.

July 1, 201510 yr Ships...beyond stellar! ----------------------------------------------------------------- 'Happy 4th! ...ain't it great... I had some fools lighting up rockets, two doors down from my house, at 23:00 hours last night...they said they wanted to test their purchases to make sure the bulk worked for this weekend. "*%*$**#*@(((@(($((($"....! They can damage peoples roofs, and light back-yard sheds on fire.... I watched...as I was awakened from it...with my cell-phone ready to call the Fire Department.... Fireworks have no place in urban subdivisions...sorry...hand-held sparkles...sure...but WW2-sized ordinance...no way! :angry: Ok, I feel better...happy 4th, everyone!

Happy 4th, Clutch Hi Clutch, Thanks for the appreciation - the aircraft carrier is not a part of this project; it might be part of default traffic, but I newer saw it. Normally I keep my setting at 5 or 10 % to avoid the default ships. 10 % I only use when I have RTMM activated in the Pacific North West. All the ships in the Global AI Ship project are activated with Ships & Ferries traffic setting at 5 %. Best regards Henrik

July 4, 201510 yr Author If you look closely at Milton Shupe's Bounty model, that I recompiled as AI model, you will discover that i made a small mistake with an animation and there are three flags and not one as there should be on the main mast. Below link to a small fix for the package correcting the above mentioned issue of the flags on the Bounty:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0r67qtcvb...AItgR_usa?dl=0Copy the mdl file in the above folder and replace the file in simobjects/boats/ai_hms_bounty - Please note this fix SHOULD NOT BE USED ON ANY OTHER VERSION OF THE HMS BOUNTY THAN THE ONE INCLUDED IN "80 AI Ships and AI Ship Traffic"(This link will be removed with the appearance of the next larger update.)
July 4, 201510 yr Going down the English Channel today heading along the English south coast, there are two naval ships with Danish flags heading west towards the Isle of Wight. I note that the rear one seems to be superimposed as two vessels! About to land on the deck pad and one part of the stern, up to the funnels, disappeared into the other!!! Also, there was a vessel near Dover, blue and white heading east, where the smoke was rising some 30 meters from the stern! Hope this helps. The Channel wasn't busy during my flight.
