Core Update: Ship Model System Now Available To Customize

The new in-game ship model adjustment feature is now available! You can now manually adjust the display scale of the current ship model from the Settings menu. From compact coastal vessels to massive ocean-going freighters, the scale is yours to customize.

Your fleet. Your design.

MOD Support: Import Custom Ship Models

To give players more room to create, we have officially opened the ship model replacement feature for MODs. Follow the specifications below to import your own or your favorite 3D models and replace the appearance of the corresponding ships in the game.

Model format and naming rules (please read carefully)

  • The game currently supports only 3D model files in GLB format.

  • Place the model file in the following directory:

Mod/Model/

*The model file name must exactly match the corresponding in-game ship ID, or the game will not recognize it.

Ship ID reference

Ship IDShip type
10015kt bulk carrier
100220kt / 50kt bulk carrier
1003100kt / 200kt bulk carrier
10045kt container ship
100520kt / 50kt container ship
1006100kt / 200kt container ship
10075kt oil tanker
100820kt / 50kt oil tanker
1009100kt / 200kt oil tanker

Example

To replace the model of the 5kt bulk carrier:

  • Name your model file:

1001.glb

  • Then place it in:

Mod/Model/

If the custom model fails to load correctly, the game will automatically use the default model.

User Experience Improvements

  • Optimized the ship model loading logic to improve the stability of custom model loading.

  • Improved runtime performance when replacing ship models with MODs.

The Voyage Ahead: More Customization Features Are Coming

Opening the ship model system is only the first step.

In future updates, we plan to add more in-depth customization features, including:

  • Ship modification system

  • Port modification system

  • Ship-and-port interaction features

Now, it is time to set sail— build your fleet and write your own maritime story.

We can’t wait to see your creations in the Steam Workshop!

Our goal is to let every captain build a maritime world of their own.

Thank you for your continued support!
