Container Ship Crash – Port Constanţa

A crush in the port of Constanta, Romania in March 2010.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

I’ve only recently started playing EVE Online and found myself being fascinated by those enormous spaceships. Thanks to a great piece of software called TriExporter, I was able to import these models into Maya and decided to render some Amarr ships as “miniatures” ;) For those not familiar with the metric system: 1 meter equals about 1 yard. 1 km equals about 0.6 miles. I may not have gotten all the colors right since I’m just beginning to play (and loving it btw) and won’t encounter most of these ships until a few months in. Sadly, some of the textures that come with the game are a little low in terms of resolution (especially for the avatar) but I did my best to cover that up… Some of the shaders could use improvement but since this is just a quick set-up, and apart from the occasional flickering, it looks good enough for now. Software: TriExporter, Photoshop, Maya, After Effects Music: Arboretum by Max Richter Models and Textures: CCP Games Inspired by TakeBackTheWorld (HL2 engine) and arkorum (Crysis engine), thanks!

    @msuct … Master and pilot in agreemen ” require ” a small tug , and …. you know , some money for pilot ,some for master :) ))) but , i, m sure you know that .

  2. GLIKERIAFAN says:

    @msuct ….Tks , but belive me i know that !!…”.Little understanding ” exists throughout the world, a sort of unwritten law , belive me :)

  3. msuct says:

    @GLIKERIAFAN the pilot is considered JUST AN ADVISER on board any ship. The Master had all responsibility and therefore he can overtake the pilot decisions if he considered that the vessel is in danger. This is the law all over the world.

    too much wind from the seaward side was too much for these tiny tugs to over come. looks like the tug in front didn’t allow the inboard tug to move up closer to the bow. if this had been done the tugs would have had a ready escape route and this wouldn’t have happened. thankfully no one appears to have been hurt and i am sure after a little repair time the tug returned to service.

    @Icey909 “The Turkish harbor master is a typical mongol…what can you expect”

    IDIOT, it is in Romania. You must be one of those Turkish haters for not being sure whether his great grandma was fucked by the Turks.

    What can you expect?

    @barcombehall ;-)

  13. barcombehall says:

    @racerboat56 True – merchant ships are often registered in a country different than that of the ship’s owners, usually to save money or avoid certain regulations and so fly the flag of that country. The flag on the Debussy is actually Greek not French as the maritime news quote I copied stated.

  14. racerboat56 says:

    @barcombehall PLYMOUTH !!!!!! ENGLISH FLAG !!!!!

  15. grasmussenNC says:

    no chance in hell bringing it i nstraight with that kinda wind

  16. barcombehall says:

    Debussy is 300 m long and 40 m wide. Port regulations call for tugs having a total of at least 14,400 hp to move boats longer than 250m. In this case the three tugs had a total hp of 4800 hp.

  17. barcombehall says:

    On March 8, 2010, around 16, container vessel “CMA CGM Debussy, French flag, was involved in an accident. During the move from berth 123 to berth 115, “CMA CGM Debussy” hit the ship “Haci Fatma Sari, stationed in berth 114, and the tug” Vadeni “, participating in maneuvers. No human casualties or signs of pollution. Debussy vessel safely moored in berth 115. The case was taken up by the research department of the Captaincy Zonal constant for the causes that led to the production of collision.

  28. Fittpappa says:

  29. halotree18 says:

    Sick video, though personally to display the Length/Height I would have presented it in a more “blueprinty” kinda way.

  30. MrKr4th says:

    the omen is backwards….that bulge or w/eyou want to call it needs to be on the other side.

  31. VideoSpringable says:

    You should call the Vid amarr ship sizes. Pretty good vid. Keep at it.

  34. R4Akai says:

    The time + effort = most of the price :)

  35. lordrevan571 says:

  42. Area51T says:

    why no caldari

  43. josjikawa says:

    16 people are “insert insult here”

  44. JeffreyOsb says:

    @AbuKaliAchBar The weapons on an Avatar can’t track a small fast moving frigate if it’s orbiting at close range. Drones will kill you though. This is why ships like that need massive fleets to protect them. Doomsday weapon though… that’ll get you.

  45. yeahfree says:

    If this exists than i would be THE first to fly with it to another earth like planet :-/)

  46. USMC2b1 says:
