Off The Flanders coast, 1915

[whecsailor]

UB-2 Early May of 1915, a very nice day to steam about.

Checked her papers, No contraband,, and a Dane flag,

Had to let her go. Prize laws you know

Se la Guerre

Notes: Just a fun goof off project. Probably will not release. Just once again showing that Trainz can recreate any event in history! What a great program!

 

[rayonier]

you could release the tramp steamer as scenery object (it looks live drivable ship in the shots)

 

[whecsailor]

tramp steamer

Hi

The tramper is in her final stages now for release, Pencil42 and Dreddman are working on the loco to make it possible to dock and transport cargo,
She will also be released as a static object/ pierside. final touches,.,

I am hoping that both will be completed in 2 to 3 weeks times

there is discussion too to release for free the gmax for the tramper to allow others to make her intowhatever company they desire

 

[rayonier]

NICE

 

[dreddman]

Oh great screenz of history Whec....the trouble is with the average trainzer they do not see the potential of what we are talking about with the docks and the transfer of passengers and goods from one mini-country to another :hehe: ...........you gota watch the perils of the high seas in any era Trainz takes you to........................-> The Trainzworld does not END! a 100 meters from the Trackz it controls everything in your interactive world.
The Tramp is sure in her final stages Driveable/loadable and scenery versions not mention Empire Airways Short Sunderland Flying Boat service will service the docks ..................You gotta luv Trainz!........

Flying boat!!

Oh you have to post pics of this,, That will be a great touch. So far, the only reliable Air tranzport for the 1910 to 1930 era is the Old reliable Graf Zeppelin.

How interesting, I've just started reading about the British & German 'Blockades' during the Great War....not sure the Prize Laws were all that respected by May 1915 though

Great work and shots guys!!!

Only a basic coat of paint at the moment I wanted to get her up n running I like to play (test) as I build 2 versions I will do the RAF version and the Empire Airways passenger/cargo and baggage version and a special dock for her The Tramp is now industry active all I have to do now is incorperate Whec's wake into the industry config and sebd her back to the Home Port :hehe:

Note the water seems to break up with my new videocard.......Bumma!​

UTTERLY AWESOME!

Can't wait to see any of these on the DLS. My layouts in Trainz are all during the WWII years in the US, and could certainly use these. BTW, I saw what looked like a cruiser and carrier in the background of some of these shots, andone have any info on those?
Thx,
Michael

is that catalina drivable?

 

[ish6]

Great shotz!!!:wave:

 

[bdaneal]

is that catalina drivable?

It's not a Catalina, it's a Shorts Sunderland. I can't say for certain if it is drivable, but my guess would be yes.

It also reminds me that I should finish my Catalina, Corsair, and Trimotor.

BTW, dredd, it appears that the #2 prop has slipped off its spinner.

Cheers,
Ben

 

[colhad]

Love the Flying Boat Dredd, well done mate.

 

[dreddman]

The Sunderland is Diveable and now has animated prop/bogeys it also uses Vulcans helicopter roll script But there is one drawback in the corners when it banks all 4 props are out ofline for a little bit I knew about the temp prop being out ofline I just chucked them on the other night (after a few beers) to see the textures ingame The best version will be the commercial version I have researched that Quantas and the old Ansett-ANA used to run a service from Sydney harbour to Lord Howe island ...it will carry passengers freight and baggage Whec's Tramp is comming along nicely as well
