An ambitious project

Do you oppose to doing lots of manual renaming yourself or would you prefer a larger download size? You can speed up the renaming by using a program like "<a href="http://www.herve-thouzard.com/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=1" target="_blank">THE Rename</a>". I could tell you what files need to be renamed and you can then rename them yourself. Otherwise I'd have to include those files in the download, which would make it larger.
 
Ok then. I recommend you get that program then, otherwise you'll need to rename about 1000 files manually. I did that and it's no fun, trust me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
The <i>Build 14 Alpha 8 Light</i> upload is already finished and available. See <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=12078" target="_blank">this thread</a> for download links, installation instructions and more information. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />
 
As maybe you know, I put the Dutch West India Company building in the Curacao Port. But I need to install the <i>big boss</i> of this company inside for the additional quest of my main quest (if you remember it's about an indian idol, François l'ollonais and so on...)

So is there a skinner interested in making this character ? (of course, a retexturing of an old POTC model is enough <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> )
 
Old PotC model reskinned?
Why not use one of Sir Christopher Mings' new ones?
Perhaps the Nathan Kell model?
That looks like a "big boss" type character. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

To Bartolomeu: I would be interested in that too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

Could you give some information on the progress of your quest?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
This quest will start after capturing once again the 'Santiago' on Guadeloupe. Roxanne Lallière will inform you that there are rumours in Puerto Rico that the Spaniards try to find a valuable indian idol (with some magical powers <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />: ) . You accept to go (with Roxanne) there to know if the story is true. But meanwhile you are looking for this information you meet François l'Ollonais who is also looking for the idol.. Despite you don't like the idea, you accept to collaborate with him to find the idol. After some difficulties, you learn the Spaniards think the idol is in a deserted area of Curacão and they already sent a battleship from Puerto Rico a week ago. So you, Roxanne and l'Ollonais go to Curação to find the idol before the Spaniards. Arrived at Curação, you'll see you will need the help of this <i>big boss</i> but without telling him your real intentions. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

So will you find the idol before the Spaniards ? Does the idol have magical powers ? Will l'Ollonais be a honest partner ? Will the <i>big boss</i> of the Dutch West India Company discover your real intentions ?

I won't tell you <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
 
Wow! I can't wait to play to this one! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
 
No me neither, it sounds like lot of fun!

Since there are so many girls in the PotC-quests now..would there by any chance be a love story somewhere? I just wondered..<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

(No, I do not fancy Barbara Cartland <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />)
 
Love story in Bartolomeu main quest I don't know <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Bartolomeu doesn't have an angel's face for that...

Otherwise, here's a outfit for <i>special operation at night in spanish cities</i> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />

Sorry for my previous message <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> (I used my old username "lostman")
 
Sounds good, Bartolomeu.
Indeed there isn't much love story in our game.
Just the Nathaniel/Danielle story and some craziness with Jack and various ladies. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
 
The colours of this bartolomeu's model are better ingame than in this image... I was thinking to use only this model during an "infiltration mission" at night in Puerto-Rico. I have to create a secret way (using new locators from the outskirts of the town to behind the big church) and a new location inside the big building near to the townhall.
 
Fantastic ! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/389_robber.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":robber:" border="0" alt="389_robber.gif" />
 
The few people who like Bartolomeu?
I'm sure that once we got everything working for Build 14, MANY people will like him. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
Anyway, screenshot looks good! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
i'm still confused about how you got him up there. replacing the sidestep y-axis by the x-axis?
