An ambitious project

Very cool! It works just fine. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
What music mod do you mean? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Ah! That's a nice idea. It'll be the Bartolomeu main theme <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
 
BTW: In the last shot of your movie, how did you manage to have Port au Prince visible from the ship, with the ship rocking on the waves? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
Yes <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

The name of this music is <i>Hispaniola</i> (it's not a joke <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blah:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> when you think the main quest starts in this island <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />)

So, <i>Hispaniola</i> from the <i>1492 : Christopher Colombus movie</i> (music made by Vangelis and movie director Ridley Scott)
 
That's Vangelis' music? Didn't even know that. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
BTW: Please check my previous post. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Start in the port, and go to the galleon with the <i>free camera</i>
 
Now that Pirate_KK fixed the Port au Prince port scene again, I was able to try it out.
But it still doesn't have my ship rocking on the waves, like in your trailer. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
Well, let me explain the music mod I've made for Bartolomeu.

The last time I tested his main quest, I had the fealing that, as regards to the ambiant, <i>something</i> was missing, compared to the trailer. I figured out that could be the music..

The mod makes the music from the trailer been played at random in stead of any location or 'danger' music that should play. It's not totally at random, as it depends on some score that it's stored as character attribute. This score lowers down with time, and should be increased when you complete key moments of the quests. I think that gives you a general idea Pieter. If you want to have a look at it before Bartolomeu send it to you, it should still be in my folder, on the FTP.
If you have any comments or question...
 
Sounds like a pretty good idea. I did download the file from your folder, I think, but didn't yet look at it.

What do you think? Is this guy bad ass enough to be the main character in your main quest <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
He's pretty darn cool; that's for sure. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
And I'm hoping for some more "night raid on San Juan"-kind of scenes in the assassin main quest.
And some more use of poisoned throwing knives and such. That was COOL! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
Ok Thomas, I accept your model of course. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blah:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />
Anyway, if SuperDurnius accepts to make his upgraded Machete, he should use the same face than your model.
Indeed, there is no problem to have many models for a main character. Bartolomeu has got 6 models ! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:" border="0" alt="ohmy.gif" />
About your reskin of will_2 you made a few weeks ago, can I use it as officer of the main character ? But, he will be Spanish (not French like your first version if you remember).

I need also 2 Spanish spies. One working in Cayman and another one in Oxbay. They should wear some <i>English clothes </i>if I can say. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

I will try to make something original. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Well, ofcourse you can use it as an officer <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />. I will keep his face as it is, but he still looks Spanish (but I will have to change his eye colour from deep blue to brown. No problemo.
About the spies, you mean that they should wear military clothes or civilian?

Behold, it is the feared Edward Mansveldt!
 
Cool! I think I have yet to encounter him in the quest. I'm looking forward to the remainder of it, but am not likely to find much time to play until the weekend again. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
<img src="http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l68/Thomas_the_Terror/GeneralDeRochefort.png" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Does someone have work for this gentlemen?
 
Ok, for Mansvelt and for your last guy (just above).

Don't worry about the characters : I have work for many new characters in the assassin quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
