VRInsight Ship console 4 Drivers
I hope you are doing well.
I am writing if anyone have the latest drivers and software packages for the VRInsight Ship Console 4. Specifically, I need:
SerialFP2 driver
VRiSim base package
HID Manager
Ship Console calibration tools
I am setting up the console for use with a maritime simulator and need the correct drivers to enable full HID axis control.
Thank You in advance

Immediate needs of improvement
Immediate needs of improvement
Chart work ; simply drawing routes, determination xte user free
Chart Work - User Map - ; user free drawing wheel over points, Parallel Index, able to text on map.
Chart Work ; Determination of the position as DR, Fix
Chart Work, EBL / VRM fixed and possible to offset
Chart Work, as addition to EBL/VRM, just drawing a line to measure distance and true vectors
Display : Conning display should be user free adjustment, able to close ROT, Wind, Current, Lateral Movements indicator etc.
Maneouver, transverse thrust of the propeller almost unable to feel. It is normally very strong effect.
Maneouver, after the last update(towing) , behaviors of lines strongly changed. Such as spring line acts like breast line.
Marine Radar is a disaster and I am never using it. ( but we dont need it too presently )
Best regards

I would appreciate a driver for the "Ship Driver" from PI Engineering!

Have you had the time to try out Basic Towage? ⚓
Now that it has been out for a little while, we have been curious about the experience it brings to your sessions.
It is currently in phase one, but we are still interested on how you are testing it so far!

I've had a chance to try the new Basic Towage feature, but I found it a bit limited for proper testing. That could also be because I may have missed something, so please correct me if I'm wrong.
As mentioned by others, the only options I could find were starting with the towline already connected or starting without a towline. I also couldn't find a way to control the vessel being towed, which makes it difficult to properly test the feature.
In real-life operations at our shipyard, we regularly tow dead ships with no propulsion of their own. However, this is always done with at least two tugboats working together. Because of that, I feel the current implementation is still missing some key elements before it can really be evaluated.
Personally, I think it might have been better to wait a little longer before releasing this update, until the towage system had a few more features implemented. That said, I completely understand that this is only Phase 1 and you're looking for feedback early in development.
Please don't take this as criticism of the project itself. I've been following Nautis Home almost since day one, and it's impressive to see how much progress has been made. I'm looking forward to seeing how the towage feature evolves in future updates.
I tried it, however, it appears that either the tow line is already attached, or not existing. Is there a function button, (similar to the ShipSim 2008), where a towing line function can be accessed? Also, when practicing with the line attached, and using the "top down" camera view, only the towing vessel was evident, but not the container ship. Is this intentional?

Flera navigabla fartyg
När kommer ni att ordna med att flera fartyg kan manövrera på samma skärm i olika farvatten, som det var då Shipsim fanns?

Missing Ship Type
Hi there I've just gotten Nautis Home and was hoping to use it to practice ship handling for work.
I'd love to be able to practice on what I use at work but so far have come up empty. However, I may have just missed it so please correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm looking for a relatively small vessel about 100m at in length and about 7000gt with two variable pitch props and rudders, thrusters up font and a thruster down aft as well.
I understand for the purists amongst you, you may say where's the challenge in that. Trust me with British winter weather and over 800 souls in your hands there is still more than enough pressure when doing it for real.
I understand the Doggerbanke is a reasonable substitute but it handles like a freight train and the bow thrusters are pretty underwhelming. Not to mention its still missing the stern thruster.
I guess what I'm looking to know is there another vessel that I've missed with the above specifications that's at least more comparable than the Doggerbanke. And if not is there anything in the pipeline that might potentially fulfil the specs I'm looking for.

Graving docks
Hi all!
Would anyone know what environment would have a graving dock? I’d like to attempt to put the Clipper Canary in and drop the water height. Try a dry docking maneuver!
Thank you and happy sailing!

Hi Del, thank you for reporting. This is si forwarded to our team.
