Having spent more hours sanding bottoms in boatyards than I care for, seeing the boat up on the lift like that is great. Very clever way to show the boat in the hangar.
Gets me curious if the 2024 SDK will enable “flight models” for sailing boats.
In theory, a sail is literally a wing, right? It generates lift, which fights against drag to move the vehicle. But drag in the water is 300x higher than in the air. So fast sail boats have wings under the water to lift the hull out and reduce drag. Ground effect vehicles take that concept to the next level, further blurring the line between aircraft and boat. I guess tomorrow we can find out where the boundaries lie

Exactly. I’ve conducted some tests these past few years trying to realize a sailboat in MSFS. The results were never good. While it is possible to make a body reactive to the wind by increasing the wing area in the form of a dummy sail or things like that, the way it behaves in the water is very bad.
We will see if in the water dynamics in FS 24 this will be improved. I’m looking forward to it, as I have two 3D modeled sailboats for this.
I sent here in the chat images of at least two boats that we will see in FS 2024 too, the Super Tanker we already see in FS 2020 and along with the cruise ship, we will be able to use it in FS 24 with new physics too

I bought the boat support, except that my request to add the SNCM livery was not added, the big problem is that it’s impossible to click on the left screen to set the anchor or manage the lights
for the price you could have found a boat noise rather than a cessna sound ^^
the avatar cannot walk on board, it appears at sea level, when the boat turns it is not clean it is as if it is moving at an angle, in short it is below the boats of 2020 and I think the price is not worth it
Your requested livery will be added along with others. But it is important to say that some users have reported that the function monitor with clickable buttons to activate or deactivate anchors, lights and other functions is not working. This has been caused by a limiter added by Microsoft/Asobo in XML scripts that has also been reported by other developers. There is an ongoing update by Microsoft to fix the problem; please understand that this is not a product defect and we hope that soon the boat will be working in all its functions.
I am following the situation with the Microsoft developer forum so that this can be resolved ASAP, but understand that it cannot be considered a product defect, because in the tests with Dev Alpha everything worked fine.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is full of bugs, there is still no tool in the SDK that makes the avatar spawn in the correct position (it will always appear in a random place no matter how much you configure it) and a similar situation happens with the sounds
I will always be working to improve the products, but I also see that the defects mentioned are defects of the game and not of the product
You and everyone can count on my 24/7 dedication to make the boats better, but be patient about some issues that are not exactly a product defect but a simulator defect

Hi, Just wondering if there is a discord server available? All old links are invaild.
@TheAviator75 Link to access the Discord channel: Marine RM MSFS
I can also announce the new Super Tanker update for MSFS 2024, where it is now possible to walk around the ship. Your character will spawn in the oil transfer engine room, in the middle of the ship. Walk forward, turn right into the hallway and go up the stairs at the end of the hallway to reach the ship’s deck. It is possible to walk around the entire ship.
