All addons are made by other POC players, there is a special topic in the forum where you can find links to there sites. You can download the files in the user addon directory of POC, following the instructions. These should be in a txt file in the same directory.

Cheers, Novex

I'm 37 (6 months off 3 Cool

, and live in London, Ontario, Canada.

For work I'm a Security and Private Investigator, which can leave me with a lot of free time for PoC.

I also used to play this game back in the Amiga days (A500, A1200HD, A1500 and A2000). My recent interest for the game came thru finding it as an app for the iPhone.

Now if you could link the iPhone to this game and run your empire from it whilst away that would be awesome!

35y old guy, Finland
Working in hardware store, Free time goes with family, some programming and games.

Played the 1st Amiga version of this game months with my friend. Finding this xxl version was really nice surprice and registered it for pc right away. Did try the 3d sim too, but to be honest, didnt like it that much. Most likely because xxl is much closer to the old school version.

male, somewhere in northern Ontario, Canada. I'm old enough to remember the original POC when it was a new game, young enough to still enjoy playing the game.

Taught ESL in Ukraine for a few years, currently working construction as Health & Safety supervisor.

I kinda think I am playing the game mostly because I cannot afford to buy my own fleet of real life cargo ships, and I don't know what the heck I would do with them if I did.

And right now thinking my next pay cheque would be for a graphics card, and the one after that for the 3D version...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum.

I'm 29, male, from Harelbeke in Belgium. I work in the purchasing department of a steel service center. My job often gets me in touch with the shipping business when importing steel coils or steel plates (mostly by river barges).

I grew up playing the old POC-game on the PC (illegaly, though, sorry RDK! Embarassed

). It had been several years since I've played that game, but I hadn't forgotten about it.

Came across the Ports of Call Deluxe game by accident a few weeks ago. Bought it on sight, because hey, it's POC 2! Fell in love with the game all over again which soon led me here. One thing led to another and I wound up with a Platinum License for POC XXL awesomeness!

I've been reading the forum a bit (which isn't always as easy given my limited knowledge of German), and I've been enjoying some of the user-made add-ons (Zootier, Stickymonk, BigBear, Bearsie and Sparky come to mind - sorry if I forgot someone!).

I hope I'll enjoy this great game for many years to come! Kudos to RDK and everyone helping him!

Hi @ll,

well - I am 43 years young, live in GER, I work for the German Customs and Excise and I know and love this game since I first played it on an Amiga500 back in 1990!

Over the years I played a number of games but this is by far the best!!!

Hallo aus Ostfriesland,

ich bin 39 Jahre alt und arbeite als Lohnbuchhalter für das Land Niedersachsen. POC habe ich das erste Mal Anfang der 90er auf einem 8086er mit CGA-Monitor gespielt (hab sogar noch eine alte Lizenz, die ich auf Vista aber nicht mehr zum Laufen kriege). Was soll ich sagen, Ausbildung beim Wasser- und Schifffahrtsamt - wohnen an der Küste - was bleibt da anderes übrig, als POC zu spielen.

Auf diesem Wege vielen Dank an Zootier, Stickymonk und all die anderen, die mit ihren User-Addons das Spielen noch interessanter machen.

Gruß
Ingo

Hallo Ingo,

ein fröhliches Willkommen in der POC-Runde. Auch wenn es zur Zeit etwas arg ruhig ist, hoffen alle dass es hier bald den großen Ruck gibt, und RDK Ports schnell wieder neues Leben einhaucht (und damit weitere Addon´s auch wieder Sinn machen).

Viel Spass bei POC und immer ne Handbreit Wasser unterm Kiel ... Wink

Seewolf
