I'll make sure to send you the model by tomorrow.. Any preference about the file format? I can also put you in contact with a guy that built both the Yushin Maru and the Nisshin Maru, if you are interested ;) However, it's his work, so you may want to discuss with him whether you are allowed to use his models or not :) Sure you can!

Unfortunately I stopped working on this prototype, as it was requiring more time than what I was ready to invest for the cause. I agree with you on how cool it would be to have the whole fleet available! One should also consider though that this could be nice for people already informed on the issue, and not necessarily add anything new to the experience for people not able to recognize the vessels. They could even be used as unlockable awards, for example by granting the possibility to sail different vessels according to your progressive score.. Imagine a ranking system that makes you progressively get access to the different ships :-) Anyway, glad you liked it! Hej Devin!

Glad you liked it, here some info for ya! ;) The application is built using the Unity game engine (http://unity3d.com/). As for the water, there are different possible implementations that look really great, and that are easily embeddable according to your necessities. I would suggest you starting from the standard Water matherials that come with the engine, and see if you are satisfied with them (http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/Manual/HOWTO-Water.html). Not enough? Google is full of scripts and shaders, usually of higher complexity, but that grant you more fancy effects. (As for one, the Infinite Ocean package.. http://www.nikko3d.com/index.php/ocean3d/45/ ) As for the buoyant movement of the ship I used a script that you can download from http://forum.unity3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=33588 (“Buoyancy.unitypackage.zip”) I hope you got the info you're looking for! ;) @eren

Would you provide me some info for making that effect ? hello there , firstly i am surprised when i see your sea-wave effect :) that really looks great..

If you remember, even Galileo Galilei admitted (at last!) that he was wrong, and that the earth is flat. Or maybe I could use it as a promotion for the "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/World-kosmou-NON-USA-FORMAT-Reg-2/dp/B003Q3F9FY/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1275995493&sr=1-12" rel="nofollow">At the edge of the world</a>" documentary that just came out.. :D Nah.. I think i will limit the movements of the vessels with an appropriate level design, such as limited paths across iceberg fields etc. The waypoints implemented in the radar also will hint towards which direction the player is supposed to go. But true, I could also implement a function that "corrects" the player's manouevres, if something goes wrong.. ;) As for the propulsion, things are going to be easier to manage as soon as i code the "collision management" part. Right now the vessel can navigate over certain icebergs because i made them using simple spheric colliders, as a fast way to set it up. Having more accurate colliders should prevent the vessel from climbing the edges of the obstacles, resulting in a more realistic collision. What do you mean as sky damage effects? :) It's going to get interesting soon! :D @Zeke
