AOP ships

i wanted to make the AOP ships more like the other ships in the game, the deck and masts are very different.. so i made something, it also improves the masts of AOP ships and the Corvette1_47 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> . it doesnt work with the AOP manowar..
see(AOP battleship):
 
oh, the escalated battleship? yes, i know that one. the deck looks way better now.
 
That's a good idea. It's true that the AoP ships use quite a different deck texture than the original PotC ship and it would be great to have them fit more together. I think Thomas the Terror also had wanted to do something like this, but you save him some work by the looks of it. Will you release that new texture file?
Why doesn't it work for the AOP battleship?
 
i will release my texture.. it is a lot of work, all the masts from the AoP ships are now using deck.tga, you have to change them all. i made this because i didnt like some parts of the corvette1_47, i found out that it used to use desk.tga... and the AoP manowar doesnt work because it use parts of the mast texture for other parts like the stairs, maybe i will make one for the manowar
 
ow srry i made a mistake, it doesnt work on the manowar <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />
 
All AoP ships are supposed to use desk.tga instead of deck.tga for the hull, all masts and all reys. I changed this already in my own game version. I will release the files along with Alpha 8 WIP 2 at some point. If you could retexture desk.tga to resemble the colours of deck.tga, that would be great and that should, in theory, work for any and all AoP ships.
 
it is now on the FTP <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> ... i have made a texture for the manowar it is called dem3.tga, its only for the manowar not for his masts, desk.tga is for the masts. and pieter the masts of the AoP ships use deck.tga not desk.tga at least with me..
 
I know they use deck.tga, but they shouldn't. They are <i>supposed</i> to use desk.tga. I fixed it in my game version. Thanks for putting the files on the FTP. Why does the Manowar require a different texture than the masts? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
Edit: I see that there's a slight difference in the top part between the two files. Something to do with the masts?
 
Just for reference: See attached the original desk.tga and Captain Patrick's new version that more closely resembles the original PotC textures.
A thought: Why don't we do it the other way around and make the original PotC deck.tga resemble the AoP textures more closely? That way all PotC ships would get a somewhat different look.

yes, i said bevore the manowar have some parts that use the top part of the texture file. the top part is for the masts but the stairs on the manowar and the planks that hold the rope ladder things(i still dont know how you call these) are using that top part. try it if you want, let the manowar use my desk.tga and see by yourself

i will do that, i dont think its gonna look good but it is fun to try..
 
Trying wouldn't hurt. Unless it requires a lot of effort on your part. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />
 
Hey, I happen to like original PotC textures! They look more... hm... organic and realistic than AoP ones <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
I like 'em too; don't you worry. I was just thinking to try it as an experiment. To see what happens. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
eh.. a little problem, i think i deleted the original desk.tga when i was working on this <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blush.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> .. i didnt make a backup.
 
oops! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> well, i like the PotC textures better as well.
 
tnx <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
