Ok, so i was just fooling around with my new graphics card, Nvidia GeForce 6800GS.
and took some pretty nice screenies, notice the sharpness of the textures and the lack of jagged lines.
and um....beatrice..er looking good? heh, nah actually, not only do i have a weakness for female skins, i also like her fighting animations. you really feel a satisfaction with them as she pulls back her arm and drives the blade trough ones enemies <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

God I miss the days of playing POTC.
It was a mixture of fun and frustration (more fun than frustration).
They better not mess up this one.
I will give Build12.1 a go.

What do you mean with "this one"? It sounds as if you are referring to Age of Pirates, but believe it or not: These screenshots were taken in Pirates of the Caribbean: Post Build 12 mods; not in Age of Pirates.

Build 12 greatly enhances the game. It removes a lot of the frustration and adds a lot more interest and fun. The Post Build 12 mods add yet more features, but also several new bugs. We are working on fixing them now and we are pretty close to releasing it as a stable Build 13. I hope to release it within a month (within two weeks, preferrably).
 
Now you know why I like using the Beatrice Devlin character, cause she looks excellent from every angle.
 
She doesn't look like a realistic pirate at all though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Yep,with a 6600GT card and an LCD monitor graphics look so much better,its amazing what POTC engine is capable of considering its 3 years old <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Maybe not, but she certainly adds spice to the game. That particular Beatrice Devlin character surpasses all the other female character skins.
 
Glad ye all like the screenies, alltho i dont play much with those settings. they tend to slow down when lots of cannons are fired. and the High poly bug on the Surprise dosent help either(when Inzane made the suprise he got a bug that doubled or trippled all the poly's)

I wonder if anyone can see if they could find a DLL in AOP referring to DirectX? it would be nice if we could create or find a replacement for the DX8Render.dll and upgrade it to run on DX9 drivers, wich would improve performance so much. ive seen this done with several DX8 based games.

Yes by "this one" I meant Age of pirates.
To be honest, I've never finished the original release of the game.
Played through twice with Build 11 I think it was.
You guys are doing god's work here, keep it up lol.

Ok now I am really confused since Beatrice in not in my game. I downloaded the build 12_full and installed it in a new install of POTC. The readme says it's build 12 but not 12.1. In fact after going over some posts in the mod section here I saw 2 skins made by you India and LCroft. Those aren't in my game either. When I installed the build it can't connect to internet ( I have broadband ) so whatever it was looking for failed. I can play the game ok but I think I am missing a whole lot of things that have been added. I got the little update from your link 18-6-06 but that only contained text files no .gm files or textures. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
