Crossing the English Channel with Jeff Favignano! | MSFS 2024

[@jfavignano]

Such a great time! Nice video man

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thanks Jeff! We need to do more videos on MSFS. Was great fun!

[@joewaz100]

@@JacqueTheFox what is this.. A mod?

[@JacqueTheFox]

@@joewaz100 Yeah the tug boats are addons!

[@aavvv_]

Been having such a fun time with the sim. Great to see what is possible with the new world and physics!

[@JacqueTheFox]

Me too, I'm in it every day whether it be in free flight, or career. Now boats haha!

[@MacXpert74]

Would be cool if they included the Hovercrafts that used to sail between France and the UK.

[@Adam-zg7tw]

A ship simulator with these graphics would be insane

[@JacqueTheFox]

Damn right it would. We're evolving that way with this sim it seems!

[@MacXpert74]

The water looks really realistic, very impressive!

[@JohnnyFaber]

Have you ever been on a boat? The throw a wake, waves, spray, etc. The surface of the water is somewhat realistic but everything else is a joke.

[@MacXpert74]

@ That’s why I said the water looks realistic, not that the boats or the interaction between the boats and the water looks realistic. Everybody can see that this isn’t simulated properly yet. There’s no need for you to state the obvious!

[@jennysproductreviews]

I didn't know tug boats could fly. Loved the video!

[@ParkinsGaming]

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thank you Jenners! Neither did I

[@jennysproductreviews]

@@JacqueTheFox you learned something new!

[@cranklabexplosion-labcentr8245]

In a few years, this is going to be Vehicle simulator.

[@JacqueTheFox]

I know right lol

[@JohnnyFaber]

And in a few more it might actually be something close to what they advertised it to be...

[@ankitbhandari8752]

A few years later msfs will be space simulator

[@kaileemorgan]

Loved the video! Very cool!

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thanks Kails!

[@Heartmonster4562]

It's Captain Jacque the fox🎉

[@JacqueTheFox]

Aye Aye Sir Heart

[@R3LOADlikesgames]

3:55 "I'll believe it when tugboats fly"... Jacque: "Hold my Coffee."

[@JacqueTheFox]

Lmao

[@nigel900]

The excitement is overwhelming.

[@JacqueTheFox]

[@nicholasdennis6756]

Great vid man just subscribed. Hope to see more videos pumping soon 🫶

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thank you very much. Welcome! I have lots lined up, just less time to edit them in, but more is on the way for sure!

[@Diagnostictech]

Now thats a new meaning to a water take off

[@JacqueTheFox]

Sure is

[@GoodOldFella970]

Great videos Jeff & Jacque! I hope Dammit Dave joins christmas 🎄🎁 FivePD

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thank you very much Kjell!

[@JohnTTech]

Extremely cool!

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thanks John!

[@johnghiglione2641]

I can 100% percent say those Tugboats don't sound anything like they do in real life. Those Tugboats sound like a prop airplane flying at full throttle. Also, the speed those Tugs were getting was insane for how big those are in real life. The fastest they can probably go is about 10 to 15 knots, maybe even a l little bit slower or so. I live in Seattle, Washington, where we have a giant maritime industry. I see this Tugboat company called Western Towboat CO coming and going through the Seattle Boat Locks a lot. Those Tugboats boats sound great when the captains push the throttles forward. I have quite a few of these videos of Western Towboat CO's Tugboats coming and going through the Boat Locks. If you want to check them out, my channel's name if Fierce Lion Vlogs. I really enjoyed this video You and Jeff Favignano made together.

[@peterbassey9668]

Thought there was another Dunkirk evacuation you guys were rushing over to.

[@JacqueTheFox]

I know right

[@meleethetyrant]

Amazing video and such a beautiful game!!

[@JacqueTheFox]

Thanks Melee!

[@ArcanePath360]

How did you get boats in the game?

[@JacqueTheFox]

They're available over on flightsim.to!

[@Sean_Downey]

Fly Sim world + GTA everything else = greatest RP world ever!! Just need a billionaire to make it.

[@JacqueTheFox]

If only man!

[@davidlockwood9192]

You can tell that MSFS is a flight sim rather than marine sim as the physics for a ship simulator are way off!

[@JacqueTheFox]

Of course, this was not at all supposed to handle ships but it does surprisingly well considering that!

[@jegethy]

Weird, people are usually sailing the opposite direction on small boats.

[@JacqueTheFox]

That's why I was instinctively heading towards Dunkirk

[@jegethy]

@@JacqueTheFox I love this xD

[@ParkinsGaming]

Do a flip

[@JacqueTheFox]

I am such a good tug boat driver I can perform tricks!

[@LoadingRetroGames]

how do we get boats???

[@JacqueTheFox]

From flightsim.to they are being sold over there on their store!

[@haileddrip22024]

Mastered a tug boat before the atr jk love the vid

[@JacqueTheFox]

Lmao I know Thank you!

[@demolicious1]

on the water is better than in the sky flight sim bahahahahaha

[@RelytNroz]

Flight simulator? More like float simulator!

[@JacqueTheFox]

I know right

[@CaptVirtual]

I don't know where I am going, you should navigate ... then overtakes 🤔🤔

[@JacqueTheFox]

Lmao

[@Neumannen]

Live weather?

[@JacqueTheFox]

For the most part yes, we had some issues so had to improvise a couple of times!

[@incarnateTheGreat]

Ok I need to know: how did they do this?

[@JacqueTheFox]

We were using a tug boat addon for MSFS. It's available through flightsim.to!

[@Grizzly50450]

Makes me wanna climb up Mt. Everest in the sim

[@JacqueTheFox]

Now there's an idea. Let me write that one down

[@Grizzly50450]

@@JacqueTheFox Yep, left that comment on Jeff's video on purpose as well lol

[@jfavignano]

Already have that one planned

[@daviddanser8011]

Does the game actually simulate bigger waves when there is more wind?

[@JacqueTheFox]

To a degree. You won't see enormous waves though.

[@chadvader974]

wait what? Tugboats?

[@JacqueTheFox]

Yes, tugboats!

[@MrRhall2k]

How i do this ?

[@JacqueTheFox]

Get yourself a boat and on the free flight map select a point in the ocean where you want to be and 'depart from here' but on the ground!

[@meemoos6133]

Hope your not picking up boat people in the channel.

[@GoodOldFella970]

Boat Boy? pirates?

[@Pkw4js]

You’re playing it wrong

[@JacqueTheFox]

Lmao
