Bestaan er moderne ship simulators?

[Luxicon]

Gezien ik daar nooit iets over lees, ben ik hier wel benieuwd naar. Heel veel kan ik niet vinden. Wel zijn er een aantal zeil simulatoren en een soort ship manager (dat is meer zoiets als truck simulator 2), die best goed zijn. Al kan ik verder niet veel vinden. Heeft iemand ideeën of is er iets in ontwikkeling misschien? Er bestaan bijvoorbeeld wel binnenscheepvaart en zeeschip simulatoren, maar dat is puur voor training.

Het antwoord heb ik zelf inmiddels gevonden:
NAUTIS Maritime Simulator

Al vraag ik mij af of dit wel gebruikt kan worden door particulieren. Volgens mij wel als je de roadmap leest. Het is ook nog eens van Nederlandse komaf. Een gokje is dat de sim het 1e kwartaal van 2021 beschikbaar is.

Ah tof, ik dacht dat het een beetje over was met de ship simulators. Maar deze hou ik in de gaten! En inderdaad ik lees ook dat er een "home" edition word uitgebracht. Ik ben benieuwd! Ik hoop ook dat je door het ship kan lopen, bijvoorbeeld naar de machinekamer of om zelf aan te meren.

Nautis is echter wel een slachtoffer van COVID-19:

Unfortunately, it means that this year we will not proceed with the development of NAUTIS Home.

Helaas nog.

Kom er net achter dat Vstep ook de oude ship simulator en Ship Simulator Extremes heeft ontwikkeld.. haha.

@Sebazzz Wat jammer, dat word dus nog langer wachten

Het is te hopen dat die beter wordt als Ship Sim Extreme, want die was best dramatisch en meer een binnenvaart sim, zodra je de haven verlaten had dan werd je getransporteerd naar de haven van aankomst.

Zojuist een update van Vstep over Nautis Home! Ze gaan er weer mee verder en verwachten een release in 2022!

Ahoy Maritime simulation enthusiasts!
Long time no news from our coast. But we are back!

Unfortunately, this global pandemic was more challenging than we could have ever anticipated. However, thankfully the current situation looks more stable as we have learnt from it and adapted. Now, we are ready to sail ahead! We are coming back with positive news - our consumer maritime simulator, NAUTIS Home, is back in development!

So what's next?
We have an established roadmap and a dedicated team ready to bring the simulator to you. We aim to ensure that the final product exceeds your expectations, thus we are committing to releasing it in 2022. Our vision is to deliver a product that is built on continuous development. A product that is exciting and immersive. But fear not, we will outline the plans soon.

Since the announcement of the development of this project back in 2019, we have received an astounding number of newsletter subscribers, supporters and followers. We would like to sincerely thank you all for all the support, questions, time and input you have shared by now.

Vandaag is er weer een nieuwsbrief uitgegaan betreft Nautis Home:


The development team is working hard behind the scenes for you. As we speak, they are discussing the UI design, creating more content and determining further planning.

You will receive more visual updates as soon as we can share them. For this time, we can share a sneak peek at the on-screen controls, which are configured per ship type. Full speed ahead!


NAUTIS Home mission
What drives us to develop NAUTIS Home?

As you might know, we are ambitious at VSTEP. Our "why" is to ensure that at least one third of the maritime industry has obtained their skills through our simulation technology.

However, we noticed that access to a professional location-based simulator is not always a given, due to time or cost constraints.

If you put the covid 19 travel restrictions on top of that, a huge demand is created for a simulation training solution accessible from home.

We at VSTEP are driven to use our expertise and 20+ years of experience to develop THE solution to this demand: NAUTIS Home - the maritime simulator that enables you to learn from home or onboard.

---------

NAUTIS Home is for you!
With NAUTIS Home we make it our mission to enable ship simulator enthusiasts and professionals to experience realistic ship simulation, anytime and anywhere.

NAUTIS Home is a standalone ship simulator desktop solution with standardized content for individual nautical training and assessment.

You will be able to follow scenarios with briefing and debriefing or choose to free roam. It offers a realistic, immersive simulation experience since it is based on our professional NAUTIS software.

NAUTIS Home will be available for individuals as well as organizations!

We received many questions. We picked the most frequently asked ones. If your question hasn't been answered, no worries! We will answer it in our later communication.

“What PC requirements are recommended?”
We are confident NAUTIS Home will run on a typical Windows PC or Laptop with a recent GPU.

“Can we use controllers?”
You can connect USB controllers to your PC or Laptop.

“Is NAUTIS Home for personal use only?”

Besides free-roaming, NAUTIS Home will have scenarios you can complete. The scenarios are based on the aspects of nautical training.
