Today we were reached by the incredibly sad news that Ilan Papini, the creator of our beloved Virtual Sailor NG and VSF simulators passed away after a crash in a light plane. We are very sad to hear this and we want to thank him for his work with these simulators. He’s created a fantastic platform for us to work with and brought much joy to many of us.
Thank you Ilan and may you find peace
We do not know how this will affect us and our add-ons but when we know anything we’ll let you all know.
We’re happy to introduce TT-Line’s Peter Pan & Nils Holgersson, two iconic Baltic Sea Ro-Pax ferries now available on the platform. Known for their modern LNG propulsion and distinctive TT-Line livery, these ships are a great addition for recreating realistic ferry operations between Germany and Sweden. Welcome aboard Lasse, we’re excited to see what’s next!
