Hi Dene, Figured I'd take this off the list.

Well, yes, I may have a look at the existing ferryboat model and try and modify it. I go to work on one of these every day: http://www.simplonpc.co.uk/RedFalcon.html There are actually three ships, Falcon, Osprey and Eagle. The later photographs show the ship after modification (lengthened + additional car deck). And it would be nice to make a model of that one, along with the other Isle of Wight ferries and hovercraft - I wonder if we could have hovercraft spray? :-) - and I could maybe input the timetables. > Paul....you fly NZ much? ...I am working on a distro > of NZ > scenery.(Wellington ..additional objects)... will > kep you in mind. I have been spectacularly lazy when it comes to installing anything but the base system so far. I have no experience of installing any additional aircraft or scenery, and I've not tried Blender. I think I should take the existing ferry boat model and a copy of Blender with me on my next cruise and learn to use it, and then try and get one of the Red Funnel ferries built... Gosh, I'll have to think about populating it with cars and trucks too... I wonder if the radars turn around on the ferries... So in answer to your question, although, I've been looking at all the fantastic screenshots you've put out, as well as the photos of the real area, I've not had a bash at using your scenery yet. Interestingly my ex (who is in fact German) lives and works in Wellington (for NIWA), so maybe I will get around to it sometime! TTFN!
