Console Walkthrough

If you have made enough posts, it will change. When you have a lot of posts, you can set something there you choose yourself. I don't know why that is though. I personally don't care for post counts. I care more for the quality of the posts and how useful they are.

Thanks, i would like to have one that has something to do with skinning. Does any one know how to change the chose of ships you have to start with in the latest patch?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Change the ship settings at the bottom of BuildSettings.h. You can choose any ships you like, but make sure you use the exact folder name. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

It takes 100s of posts. There is a set of ranks you go through: Landluber, Sailor apprentice, sailor, matster mariner. I am almost to 900 and I am a Corsair. .

LOL this one is 900!

I mean in the latest patch though, because while in game you can pick what ship you use, how do you change the choses you have, and also what do you think of this logo:

For some reason though all the black is still there while in game, even though the original had black but is not shown.

You can change the choises at the bottom of BuildSettings.h.

Your file looks excellent. I'm looking forward to adding it to the game. The original file was transparent, because there was an alpha map. I don't know how to make those, but you must do something special in the TX converter for the Alpha map to be converted along with the rest of the picture.

I managed to put it over with the alpha channel, but i lost the new words i added, i probably have to change the alpha channel, i just need to figure out how. I have work to do tomorrow for school, i will try on Wednesday.

I would like these screens to show up randomly, but don't know how to make it so. It migth be possible. I will try when I have time. Though I won't be having it as my #1 priority... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" />

Tip: Search PROGRAM\seadogs.c and PROGRAM\INTERFACE\interface.c for "loading". Then you find the code calling the loading screens. You can use an if(rand(1) == 0) { loading screen 1;} else { loading screen 2;} code to make the game randomly choose a loading screen. I did not test this, but I think it should work. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I have fixed the problem, there is no black and i have changed the alpha, i will upload it after i have made it a bit more visible and have time to.
