Indeed, the ships look nice and were much missed. A word of caution: Please be aware off possible stutters/hangs when you have the AI ships active. I also installed them, and read Henrik Nielsen comments (on pilote-virtuel.com) about his progress in the conversion of the package to MSFS. Two main problems are: a lot of models have (at least some) texture files in BMP format which is not being used by MSFS (must be converted to DDS, leading to stutters and ships with missing textures. I don't know if the missing json files normally accompanying every texture file are also problamatic. The second problem which causes hangs and severe stutters on my system ist that changing the time in the sim (or even just the weather source) leads to a recalculation of an new positioning of all AI ships which obviously takes some time during whick the sim is stutterung and freezing.

My first was a Commodore Plus/4 with 64 kb RAM, a datasette drive and a B/W TV as monitor. It was back in 1988, I was in the army (east german air force, that is) and we were playing ACE where you flew a fighter jet and could even simulate aerial refuelling. Then, in 1990 I got an Amiga 500 where I was fascinated by the realism of FS 3.
