old_wombat Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Well last week our gummint annonced the signing of a contract for a new Antarctic ship, so in response I am upgrading mine. I have found a fabulous one, but ... it doesn't have a crane. It needs a crane large enough to pick up and move a mulit-ton shipping container. And it needs to be articulated. Attached is an EXAMPLE - this is the one from the proposed British Arctic ship (thank God it's not going to be called "Boaty"). Now I have searched the library here for many keywords that would seem relevant, and found ... nothing. So - does anyone have a suitable crane? It doesn't have to be exactly like the one attached - as long as it does the job and "looks right". Steve from Murwilllumbah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronzie Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 http://www.fs-shipyards.org/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=186 is for FSDS (FS Design Studio). It includes a container file and a container ship. A binary search turned up the word crane several times so it might have crane objects in it.

old_wombat Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Thank you Tiger and Ronzie for your replies. Whilst the FS-Shipyard contains some very interesting vessels, and in fact I have downloaded one for another project, I could not find a separate crane object anywhere in it. So I am still sans crane. The seagulls orbiting the garbage barge are hilarious. Even if in close up they look more like ducks :D Steve from Murwilllumbah.
