Website Update

Just visit our main website - it is worth it!

Finally

Can't wait..
Great job

Sweeeeet! Screens look awesome!

Marcel, you have extremely surprised me. When I turned on my computer and saw this, i must admit, i let out few tears!!! Those screens are totally awesome! This is the most wonderful bus sim, noone could make a better sim than you guys! Congratulations!


Marcel, i would buy the OMSI even if it costed 200 euros! For real!

I am REALLY hoping that OMSI comes out in Serbia!!!

I am a little sad... When I asked for the TrackIR, you´ve ignored me. At least a small thanks for that great tip would be really grateful. Perhaps because of my tip for TrackIR you´ll sell a few extra games. But if you do not think so, never mind, forget it...
Another thing, I'm terrified of that price. Price of 29.99 has had bigger games than OMSI, when it was released. I guess that the maximally price would be somewhere around 19.99, but it is obviously up to you. Keep in mind that if the price is too high, people prefer to download the game illegally.

Anyway,I´m very much looking forward to release, when I'll play your game and try to create your own map and so on... I hope that it will be really the best simulator, as we all think and do not forget your Czech Fanpage.

Thanks, Dimi.

So i have one more question, will the game have more traffic other than a Golf and a 'Benz?

Dimi,

1.) No, we didn't include TrackIR just because you gave us the tip! Of course we had this idea much more earlier!
2.) The price is not too high, it is a normal price here in germany for such a product.

What? Price too high? This is such a low price for this quality simulator! Id pay much more that 30E! !
What about my question Marcel?

The ai traffic? We will see...!

1) Of course it is not necessary that I gave you the first tip for it, it would seem so, when you didn´t answer anything, even "Yes, we know about that" ... But whatever, it is pretty cool OMSI supports that and it is the main thing.
2) It was just my opinion, you do not have to think immediately that we are poor or something.. Just my opinion, I gotta buy it with any price, but sometimes less brings more... ;-) It is just up to you.

@Dimi
In fact we did not enlarge upon your request simply BECAUSE TrackIR support was already working in OMSI at the time you asked but we didn't want to give away too much information about that (agreements and stuff).

Yes, I got it... I´m sorry if you want...

Many thanks for those updates, will pass the word round here in Ireland about the upcoming product!

Some questions about the screenshots:

- The cobblestone lanes, do they have different driving physics as opposed to the normal asphalt roads?
- How did you implement the shadows, stencil shadows?
- Concerning http://omnibussimulator.de/screenshot/101101/20101101028.jpg is that a 'dirt skin' or applied dynamically?

Keep up the good work guys!

The cobblestones have a little bit lower friction, the sharp shadows are stencil shadows and the dirt is - of course - dynamically.

Dynamic dirt - something that would justify a working washing installation

About the cobblestones, do they also have an increased 'bumpiness' like in real life?

Don't make too much hope...!

Yes, this will happen, too!

Ah, I was only joking. Would be nice to have but obviously isn't a high priority feature. It's nice to have dynamic dirt at all

Sweeeeet

Oh my God...
The screenshots look absolutely outstanding. Thank you so much for your hard and truly amazing work Mr. Kuhnt and Mr. Hülsmann. I can't wait till release. I wish it is 2011 now.

I hope that I can buy it somewhere in Croatia when it's released

Articulated articulated me want articulated buses wraaaaau!

Other than that I'm really happy and overjoyed that you gave the release date, and showed the new screens. I drooled over the keyboard

Will we get this bus in the final version?
This
And These signaling devices will work, or not used by the passengers and those are just textures?
In a station, will be there static number of passengers, so is it a number that is fixed or dynamic?
If dynamic:
1. If the station is empty, can i go to the next station without stopping?
2. If i closed the doors, but not all of passengers had taken on, can i open the doors again, and those passengers will take on or those are lost things like in vbus?
3. Will the passengers coming with the time, or is it written how many people can be at the station?
4. If i closed the doors, but i got a red lamp 4-5 meters from the station, will passengers coming, and can i take them, or they won't coming and i can't take them?

5. In small streets, if i want to turn with the bus, will the cars let me to turn with 2-4 meters free space front of them?

I hope you got the questions, and keep up good work!

Pozdrav! I hope it comes in Balcan countries also. Really great game. 29.99 Euro is a bargain!
P.S. I'm from Serbia!
