Real World is Now Live!

This update is a total rework of the entire game. No longer is it just a "VR Experience" - it is now a fully fledged shipping simulator and aiming to be the most comprehensive ship simulator available.

You can take control of a wide variety of boats/ships all the way from a 3m R.I.B. to a 50m Oil Tanker.

The game fully supports both VR (including virtual controls) and Non-VR modes.

Full support for joysticks, joypads, wheels, pedals, mouse control, keyboard control or any mix that you want. All controls can be re-bound in game.

Full support for Ultrawide screens up to 32:9

Here's a list of the main changes...

1. 10 ships of varying classes (Sport boats, Powerboats, Transport vessels, Luxuary Yachts etc)
2. 5 islands based on real world locations spanning a 200km2 map and with 7 different ports (8 if you count the oil rigs!)
3. SatNav with depth charting
