The Black Pearl 2.1

wait a sec...how come that ship has the shadows of the forsails on the mainsails? my game doesn't have that. is it because of the program or what?
 
Because that screenshot was generated by 3D Studio MAX, which apparently is capable of generating appropriate shadows. The game, however, doesn't do this.

For the past week I have been working on my <i>Pearl</i>, retouching her here and there, before I start long and prolonged battle with Maya, and this is the result (with mockup sails):

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/The_Black_Pearl.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

(Some of the thicker ropes are now modelled, btw)

And this is the sail plan:

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/sail_plan.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

I've based everything on <i>Black Pearl</i> blueprints and screenshot from DMC (the one where Jack is shown rowing away from the ship), and they line up reasonably well, so, as far as I can tell, this sail plan is pretty accurate.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Can I just point out one thing. In all of the films from the bridge you can see all the way to the forcastle deck and on the lastest model whilst being fantastic does have one small problem. the Main mast's lowest sail is to long in height.
 
All right, I'll fix that. Eventually <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
Looking forward to any improved version you might come up with. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

I saw that some one did not liked that the cabin was sticking out, think the cabin i perfekt look at the pic.. You can´t see anything wrong with it...

<img src="http://www.funnyphotos.net.au/images/pirates-of-the-carribean-black-pearl1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

one thing i don´t like with the model is that; The colour is too dark... litle more light should fix the colour <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />


<img src="http://funkoffizier.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/black-pearl.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
 
Are you basing that colour comments on screenshots or the actual ingame model? Did you try her?
 
looks like the pearl on that pic is pretty damaged. i noticed it in the film as well.

one thing i just noticed is that the real roof is rounded, not flat. i like the flat one better.

No, I am not going to submit it to PotBS, because:
a) It's not detailed enough, actually. I'd have to basically redo her from scratch.
b) People aren't stupid, you know. Even with the change of the name, they'd notice. And there's no way devs are going to allow <i>Pearl</i> clone into the game.

Well, it's flat only to converve polys <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Flat? Where is there a flat roof? The real version AND the ingame version both have rounded roofs. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Yeah, but it's not as round as the real thing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
well, i like the flatter roof better anyway. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
yea thats cool man i floated the idea over there and they are also sticklers for realism with their ships and the attributes of the pearl since they are so loosely based on mostly likely a galleon but their era ships even if they took a variant the pearl does not fit into their era. mod over there listed a number of things in very technical details that were on the pearl that would not be on ships in their timeframe.

still might play with it havent worked in any 3d software in awhile since i reformatted and lost alot of my work for x3.
 
well, according to my book, the pearl is a ship from somewhere in the region of 1640-1670. this shows that the ship itself is in fact quite old when you see it in the movie, as most other ships you see are in fact far more modern.

<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yeah, I dont know why they want their ships so detailed, as there is no first-person view from the deck anyway in that game (I could´nt find it). So there is only the worldmap models used, and the 3rd person models a little closer up in PvP. "Hans" made some great ships for PotBS, with fittings and details inside the open decks, but unfortunately they are never seen ingame, because of the camera view? I asked him, if he wanted to mod for this Build Mod, but he never replied <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
And what about boarding actions? Do you fight aboard your/enemy ship, on aboard some generic one?
 
I tried to, but I sank all the ships I met in the open beta before I could board them - not on purpose, of course <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" />
However, I think the deck you are fighting on is generic, because it was generic in the tutorial.

EDIT: Actually, the way seabattles is carried out in PotBS is very much alike the Pirates! shipbattles, if you ever tried that game..

As far as PotBS modders modding for our build, I remember looking at some random threads in the ship development forum over at PotBS and seeing a few ship models actually being tested in PotC. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to drop a few feelers in over there and see if we can get some more content to add? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> I know we've got quite a few new ships already in game and in development, but if they're already putting their ships in PotC just to test, why not see if we can get a few more detailed and different ships to spice the build up even more?
