    Creating a Davvy Jones Model (WIP)

    I'm sorry but thats just such a naive way of thinking, no offense intended. but ive been modding for quite some time, and i do know its not acceptable legally to just go porting things around however one wants. In particular ive modded in star trek games, now porting stock models and stuff from...

    Creating a Davvy Jones Model (WIP)

    by the way why is that model so crappy anyway? the screenshots and ingame footage ive seen of AWE has much better graphic quality.

    Creating a Davvy Jones Model (WIP)

    I would be very cautios thou, alot of times game companies dont like models from their games being ripped to be used in others, some modding sites forbid this practice in modding, and me being involved in the build mod i am not too anxious to be pulled into a legal dispute if one should arise...

    Who wants new guns?

    Hehe, my CannonFX looks real sweet in large scale battles <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> i cant wait for the day thou we can figure out how to carry a mixed cannon loadout, lower deck with 32 pounders...

    nice idea but wouldnt look good thou, since not all ships are warships or even english :P

    Who wants new guns?

    are you sure you didnt read wrong and it said 24? because the only thing with 42 pounders is Fort's or perhaps it was carrying carronades in which you can buy them in the shipyard i think?

    Who wants new guns?

    i dont even know if its possible, there are two ways i can think of. 1.) new locators, probally impossible, most likley hardcoded. 2.) giving a particle system a negative position value, however this would require that every gon on every ship would be exactly the same size and have exactly the...

    Awful performance!!

    I'm getting slowdowns too, im out at open sea, firing the guns and when i do i get slowdowns with build 14 alpha 7, no problems in the past, and i dont even have a memory.mp file

    Now who wants revised flags?

    Right gents and build assemblers, check the new set out, its up on the PA! FTP, merciless_realistic_flagsPoTC basicly the same as the old one except for the french, spanish and personal flag. which have been redone to fit the era and the theme.

    Who wants new guns?

    well to me cannons are supposed to be black, cannons that arent black arent real cannons IMHO well aside from brass and bronze guns perhaps :P but iron guns are black. btw whats the problem with the closeup? if its the fuse hole we could just remove it and have regular black barrells instead of...

    Who wants new guns?

    Well i was getting pretty fed up with the so unrealistic grey fakey metal texture of the stock guns on all the ships, so i used the texture i used for the new Surprise's guns and made a replacement texture, now all the guns on the default ship and on some third party ones look much more...

    Sail emlems when no sail emblems should be?

    Ok in build 14, alpha 7 the ships of other nations have stock PoTC sail type with national emblems, yet i have the buildsettings set to 2, pure white sails for all, whats going on here?
  14. Merciless Mark

    Whats up with the guns?

    Fresh install, up to build 14 Alpha 7 now, but when i fire the guns in a clean install i barley hear them and they sound crackled, i look in the sound_alias.ini and rackhams sound properties for his cannon sounds isnt even in there anymore...

    [SPOILERS!]Pirates Of The Caribbean: At Worlds End

    Just came back from the movies now meself, really enjoyed it, allthou i wasent too keen on the transformation of the dutchman a'la "beuty and the beast". it was a bit of a sad movie, i kind of felt for Davey Jones, he seems so much more bitter and miserable being under that scum lord.

    The EITC

    I wouldnt mind seeing "Svenska Afrikanska Kompaniet" in PoTC, they were engaged in trade in africa, as well as slave trade but they also operated lightly in the caribbean.

    Gunsmoke idea.

    me thinks its time for another toggleble option, but i dont think it would look good, it would require too many particles for the trail to actually look decent, i noticed this particularly when developing CannonFX that too many particles slow things down.

    Gunsmoke idea.

    I agree performance is an issue, thou im not sure how possible it is because some of the stuff regarding cannon shot is hardcoded. But i dont think there is alot of realism in that, even in M&C most of the cannon shots were not streaking, and i never use the PoTC movies as a frame of reference...

    Rewrite current main quest...

    ok so where are you, are you intending to replace the whole main quest in the build mod?

    Lord Cutler Beckett

    as i said in the other thread, the EITC should be portrayed in a realistic manner, not as in disney fiction.
