An ambitious project

The problem is more likely to be in the ship GM file itself though. Sometimes you get the beeping problem even if you just save a certain ship file. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
I am really sure! the problem is the first gen Steering Wheel Collision data.
nothing else would change, he add the wheel and the model beeps.
some PotC models beep with this wheel the AoP and VCO models doesnt beep.

Why?? mmmmhh... at the moment, I dont know but i will find it out <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> i hope <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
I will try your file. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

But I was thinking maybe I did something wrong when I added these objects to the deck. Could you give me all the procedure to add an object to check if I forgot to do something.
Indeed, today I made a new model without your first wheel and I had this beep... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
1. put the details in the Folder: C:/ program/ modding/ tool/ meshes
2. open tool and load your ship model
3. click edit scene
4. add the details you want
5. delete the ship model and locators
6. save it as "deck" for example
7. load your ship model again
8. open locators and add the following : deck-geometry-0-0-0-1-0-0-0-1-0-0-0-1-1-0
9. save the ship model
10. enjoy

can you upload your ship? so i can see what i can do for you!
 
ok, I have the confirmation. I made several mistakes during the procedure <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

Yes, I can <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> . What idea do you have for an unique caravel ?
 
thats my idea! more historical and a Unique in this game and the Santiago is special or not? (rigging is not finish)

nice boat <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":bow" border="0" alt="bow.gif" />
 
Could you also rerig the POTC brig? with more ropes and such, and nice little details <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
I like it. Good job, yo ho ho! Definitly looks different and it does suggest fast to me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
yes! that's what i was looking for! fully historically accurate rigging. that one's perfect for the first period. you might want to try to replace the main masts' sails with a lateen for a second caravel type, like on the french caravels. it looks odd, i admit, but that one also excisted.

Yeah, I can and i will do <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> . Let me finish the Caravel first, then I make a Caravel with three Lateens and then comes the brig in my Shipyard.

One question:

are in PotC 2 kind of ropes or only in AoP?? so i must do 2 types of rigging for the 2 games!
 
PotC doesn't have sagging ropes. i think you'll have to modify them then. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Nope; no sagging ropes. Too bad, really. Looks very cool. Perhaps if we ever move our modding to the Storm 2.8 engine...? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
really NO? so you see only the half of my work ingame <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

You have to change on Storm 2.8
 
by the way, i like the pole at the back. i've seen it a lot on real ships, but never on a model for the game.

it's a really sluggish ship, actually. whatever you do to the rigging, caravels will always be bathtubs, though maybe slightly less.
 
I like the new model but you are using the old skin <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> . Seeing that, i didn't know you are working in this new model, I succeeded in adding the objects to the old "Santiago" without the Beeping (model in my folder). Anyway, if you could put some objects in your new "Santiago" like wheel, bell and lilgun and MORE it would be GREAT.... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
