Pago-Pago, Western Samoa...and marine traffic between the two...

[Orbx Flyer]

....gotta love it...

 

I have Henrik's package, and obviously, within that package are routes between the islands...and what a hoot!

 

If you have purchased the Samoan Experience, and, with using P3D's ULTRA water setting so as to enable 3D waves, with marine traffic plying their routes, it makes for a very convincing real-world depiction flying between the island groups. I now usually do it in the Quest Kodiak Passenger/Cargo Amphibian, at around 1,200 ASL. The view...is to fly for....

 

Cheers,

Don-t get the idea of the post...

 

If you wanna convince those of us who don't have it, I think at least a screenshot is in order

What program are the container AI ships in? I assume you are talking about added AI ships and not the static ones that come with FTX samoa?

  Would like to have them free or payware

 

Thanks

The AI Ships are freeware and come in several packages that are avaiable at simviation and some other sites. Do a google search for 63 AI ships and AI ship traffic fsx and you'll find the first one. All in all there are over 200 ship models with realistic traffic routes for all the world. The models look fantastic and the performance impact is near zero. Be aware though that there are several patches for the AI packs that correct done corrupted models that could cause fsx to crash so install those too. Arioso If you're using prepar3d there is a patch for the wake effect to correct the vertical wake when using fsx effects in prepar3d. Hope that helps. Cheers Fabian

Oh and you have to set the ship traffic in fsx our prepar3d to at least 10 % or you won't see any ships at all.

...there is a whole huge thread on the AVSIM site in the FSX FORUM page concerning these ships...as well as all the files.  The thread usually sits within the first 5 pages of threads...

 

Having many different ships plying the trade routes...around the Samoan's...brings it all home.

Here's the thread regarding adding great shipping around all the ORBX gems...
