Sim3D II do not shows the correct ship

[Nacho]

Hi mariners!

I'm starting with this bussines as an old fan of POC of 20 years ago.
Just installed and licensed my copy, I have a nasty problem with the Sim3D:

In the game, when I choice "manual maneuvering" and 3DII opens do not appears my ship nor the correct name, though the right port. It is always a little "Trelyon" ship, not the old Liberty ship, but a modern tramp.

After all online update have got XXL 1.0.9 / sim3D 1.1.4, the updater for 3DII tells me that I'm running the latest version 1.64 (I installed the install_std_POCSim3dII_web_lg.EXE got on the POC site).

Thanks in advance.

hello,
there are not all poc xxl ships in sim3d2 so far.
as far as i understood rdklein, poc sim 3d2 should choose the most suitable ship. so if you run a ship about the size of the treylon.
the treylon we always be chosen.

Greets,
Christian Todt

Yes if you install the addon ships for pocsimdii there are some more but pocxxl has multiple more ships. The smalles fitting ship is automatically selected.

For test you a container ship and try again, there we have by default three standard ships.

Ok, understood the suitability of closets ship between the two games, tried that rdklein. But still I don't have the rigth name of my ship in the stern. Always the default shipbroker name, in all models. Is this Ok?.

BTW, the economic game is good and, it is true, dangerously adictive!.
Regards.

I will check for this, as I transfer the ship name (karas name) and the user name to pocsim3dii. The kara name is needed to find the ship if its is there exactly (done by a fuzzy search) but theuser name was supposed to be displayed on the ships sides. - -
