MarkoBarthel Posted January 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Two pictures with the panel layout. I think for the moment it's the final layout. Minimap is working, needs only a few optimizations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoBarthel Posted May 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 Hey Captains, After upgrading Across the Seas to Unity 2019. Some of the assets that I'm using are broken. And after the depreciation of Ultimate Water System, I need to take a look for an alternative water system and I chose Crest for the simulator. First steps are done, watercrafts physics are integrated, trueSKY works also better with Crest. Here is a shot with Crest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoBarthel Posted May 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 A first look of the new water displacement for the watercrafts that comes with the new water system. It's not final yet, but it looks really promising. The new water has also a much better performance and it's now possible to increase the visibility without getting artefacts.

MarkoBarthel Posted July 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Across the Seas anchor physics test. A few things need to be tweaked like the anchor mass or the colliders for the anchor. But so far, it works and looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoBarthel Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Hi Captains, The thrusters are now implemented in the sim. So, you can now safely mooring the ship. Sry for the untextured scenery objects. It's the Dover/Calais scenery and it's Work in Progress. The new minimap system is also done. I removed the realtime map. The system is now a picture based minimap system. So it allows me, to paint the minimap to create an look like a real nautical chart. And it gives also an performance boost of 15fps .

zildjian102 Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Looks awesome! When are you thinking there will be a public version available? I'd love to test this out, as I have a few years being a helmsman on a ferry. MarkoBarthel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoBarthel Posted January 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hi Captains, Some shots from the sim. The new weather looks perfect and more natural. Also the new volume lighting looks great. Only two major showstoppers are left, before the public alpha version goes live. An anoying performance bug and I need to integrate the new Dover Port for the Dover - Calais scenery. Regards Marko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoBarthel Posted January 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Rain effect is back working. Also removed rain inside the watercraft interior and added a basic rain effect to the windows. Looks good so far and performance is also great. I found and removed also the annoying performance bug. So only point on the to-do list is to get both sceneries (Dover / Calais & Cape Town) a little bit more done for the alpha release. Marko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoBarthel Posted January 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Small break from scenery works. Need to test the new Post Processing effects. I think the color saturation looks better now, the same for the reflections on the water surface. Marko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoBarthel Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Performance is not that bad. Calais with surrounded ~70k buildings and a high visibility and around 90-100 fps on my notebook setup. Shallow waters also implemented for harbor areas. No more high waves in harbors. Early morning in Calais. Random shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
