Description:

Ever had those giant cargo ships try to navigate your rivers, clipping through all your bridges? Look no further! This set contains three different sizes of container ship (you can turn them on and off individually in the content manager), featuring Avanya’s beautiful containers! This set includes all 40ft. containers from Container Pack 1 as well as two 20 ft. containers from Container Pack 5.

I highly recommend you use the Loading Screen mod. All three ships use the same textures (except the LOD textures, but those are small anyway), so with the mod activated the game only has to load the textures once.

The longest ship in this pack (1C) is actually really long (it’s a coupled barge) and also has quite a heavy LOD, so you could consider disabling that in your content manager.

The ships have a significantly lower speed (speed of 10 – still too high to be realistic, but way better than the default of 25) and lower capacity. To avoid weird ship traffic jams, adjust the speed of other ships as well with Advanced Vehicle Options.

Item stats (main/LOD)
River Container Ship 1A (medium): 2302/325 tris, 1024^2 / 256^2 px
River Container Ship 1B: (short) 2052/297 tris, 1024^2 / 256^2 px
River Container Ship 1C: (double) 3738/550 tris, 1024^2 / 256^2 px

Includes d,n,i,s,c texture maps.

More sets based on the other container packs are in the works, as well as (eventually) bulk cargo ships.
