Virtual Sailor 9.5 is out
Posted: Tue Feb 22, 2022 9:01 am
Hi Everyone,
Today I have uploaded version 9.5 of Virtual Sailor NG, the following items were fixed:
1) Fixed bug in ambient lighting in scene.
Visible especially at sunset and sunrise, the ambient lighting we had did not reflect the color of the sky, this was fixed,
now also the scene will be darker at night when there is no moon, and more realistic at sunsets and sunrises.
2) Tide amplitude adjusted to scale in feet.
2) Fixed displacement waves not working in replay.
3) Added output of wave period in seconds.
4) Saving docking points positions for docked boats.
This will fix docking positions being saved and restored properly when ship is docked.
5) Fixed mean water level in advanced dialog does not return to zero.
6) Saving fuel state, sails state, auto pilot state in situation.
Now everything is saved and restored in situations, the sails reefs, the fuel state, the engine state, the auto pilot speed and heading and more.
7) Added fuel adjustment slider.
8) Radar turns when engine is on at 1.333 sec per revolution.
This applies to the visual part of the radar part, rate of rotation same as radar instrument update rate.
9) Fixed bug in rendering wake twice in RADAR for own vehicle.
This will prevent a small stutter we had before when seeing own ship in radar.
10) Added speed reading to fps data.
Press Control + W to switch through modes.
I hope you enjoy this update and that all works fine,
Thanks,
Ilan
