Vehicle Simulator Demo

Vehicle Simulator is a unique simulator, combining land, underwater, sea surface, air and low orbit environments into one, the program makes it possible to drive, fly, sail, dive, and go into space in one convincing simulation environment. The program excels especially as a flight simulator and as a naval simulator combining the powers of two previous simulators Micro Flight and Virtual Sailor into one, however the game engine was completely re written and has far greater capability and capacity than any of the previous ones it was made of. 

Vehicle Simulator has some unique and innovative features that stand out compared to other programs of its kind, here are some of them: 

• Ability to see air flow visualization, allowing you to learn how to soar cleverly using the rising currents of air caused by wind, thermals cloud suction.
• Ability to design your landscape easily inside the program itself, in 3D, editing everything including the ground and vegetation upon it.
• Ability to design your vehicle out of components, and elements, position and adjust each of them, giving your vehicle unlimited functionality.
• Built-in simulation of Hang Gliders, Para gliders, Hot air balloons, dirigibles, planes, gliders, rocket planes, boats, cars, micro lights, and more.
• Ability to import scenery directly out of SRTM data and using it on the fly without the need for any additional work.
• Simulating animals of all kinds, on land air and water, and allowing creation of new ones and programming their behavior.
• Simulating weapons of all kinds allowing you to practice weapon operation for the fun of it.
• Advanced recording and playback of flights, and addition of pre recorded vehicles into an exiting one.

The program uses fully documented file formats, and invites a hands on experiences, noting is locked away from the user, allowing third party add-ons to be easily made.

Vehicle Simulator was created by Ilan Papini first version released in March 2009. Vehicle Simulator is based upon Micro Flight and Virtual Sailor, and combines them into one powerful program containing :

• Excellent graphics from ground level and up.
• Excellent naval environment above and below water.
• Excellent atmospheric model from ground up to space.
• Excellent vehicle simulation for land, naval and flying vehicles.
• Component based vehicle design making the program a great engineering tool.
• Scripting language capability allowing complicated scenarios to be simulated and edited.

Vehicle Simulator has a much denser scenery than these two programs, an excellent physical simulation, and a totally flexible vehicle design.

Vehicle Simulator includes a built in scenery and vehicle design, making it much simpler for users to create and share content than ever before.

The simple yet powerful vehicle design makes Vehicle Simulator an excellent learning tool and also a powerful preliminary design tool.

Vehicle Simulator was designed to run on the average gaming machine specs available for 2008, however it can be adjusted to run on machines with less performance. Vehicle Simulator is built to use DirectX9 with vertex and pixel shaders 2.0 and volumetric textures. It is essential that your computer has a video card which is compatible with DirectX9.
