Exploring the Titanic – A YouTube Video

Reading Time: 3 minutes
Over a few days I have watched a few minutes at a time of a video on youtube. They used Unreal Engine 5 to model the entire ship. It’s a walking tour where you start on the grand staircase and explore the ship one deck at a time. It shows how the furniture might have looked, and gives you a sense of scale.

Such a video is interesting because it brings the ship to life. It takes us back in time to when the ship. The project is part of the [Titanic HG Vintage Digital Revival](https://titanichg.com/) project. At the time of writing this post they have modelled 50 percent of the Titanic.

For those with a more powerful computer you can download the file to explore the ship yourself. I am content to let someone else explore it for me.

As I watched this video, and saw all the detail I thought about how this could be used as a framework for a game or potential film, using the ship’s model as a set.

The ocean can be seen moving, and so can the engine room, but for the most part this exploration is of an empty ship, that is furnished, but without food, water, liquor bottles or other things.

Imagine if they worked on the sound scape, and on crewing the ship to make it true to the time period.

“The most famous ship ever built is about to surface — welcome aboard! Titanic: Honor and Glory is a first-person open-world historical recreation. With a fully explorable, fully interactive and historically perfected RMS Titanic at your disposal, walk her decks and experience her opulence as very few did.”

I would liken this to Endless Ocean Luminous. The aim of the “game” is to explore and experience something that some people would not otherwise experience.

This is a nice way of bringing history to life.
