Barbossa as boss?

Merciless Mark

Build mod - Master Gunner
Storm Modder
Well when i fixed the quests_reaction i started to wonder if they didnt plan to have the Black Pearl boardable or something.

<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->case "Story_FaceTheBoss":

     bQuestDisableMapEnter = true;
     Island_SetReloadEnableGlobal("KhaelRoa", false);

     pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1 = "NPC_Death";
     pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1.character = "Barbossa";
     pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition = "Story_KillTheFinalBoss";
 break;

 case "Story_KillTheFinalBoss":
     DoQuestCheckDelay("Story_KillTheFinalBoss_2", 5.0);

Heh... Yes, that's tantalyzing, isn't it?

It would be fun to make it so that you can encounter the BP with a skelly crew and Barbossa as Captain. Heh... It's been talked about before. Maybe someone will actually attempt to work it in someday! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
i guess it wasent used because they wanted the sinking Pearl finale

And Barbossa should have his owns taunts like, "Here there be monsters" lol! or "Welcome aboard the Black Pearl!"
 
Oh absolutely. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> Now that would be cool... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="8)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />
 
Hmm, maybe ye could board the Black Pearl and duel to the death with Barbossa. Then keep the BP as your prize.
 
There are lo_skel GMs, and I forget how but there is a way to set a ship to have them rather than lo_men as the people_on_ship. IIRC that's either already in POTC, or A&M set it true for their addon.

That code snippet doesn't, SFAICS, have anything to do with boarding; it's that POTC considers a ship to be a property of a character (its captain), so when you sink a ship you kill the character (i.e. that's how a sinking is handled by the engine, and especially by the quest backend, what that code is for).
 
ah well, so much for that end duel in the film. Perhaps you could fit the Aztec coins the traders try to sell you into this, Get 5 of the coins, and find the chest that has the rest in them to make the black pearl boardable! that would be a good quest! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
i think it would be cool if one could make a total conversion mod:

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

can new quests be written yet? cause i mean we have critical models already in game, Barbossa, Will Turner, Jack Sparrow.

and i think i saw somewhere that one can add new islands to the game.
 
I didnt post that twice! AHH! what happened!

If the modders made a PotC curse of the BP game, that would be more than brilliant, but the problem would be cinimatics. Other than that, I think that this should work. But it will take a long time, theres 3 detailed ship skins needed, a "Commodore Norrington" skin, the govenor and island of Port Royal, the island of Tortouga, the guy I call "Badgerman"'s skin, Barbossa as a skeliton, the two other skeliton pirates (The guy that looses his eye), the island Isla de Muerto, and many other things I cant think of.
 
just wondering a bit off topic, the Cursed coin, can one only get it in the Build mod or can one get them in Stock POTC?
 
Only in the Build. And they're -1 luck like the dead cormorant, so you wouldn't want them in your inventory. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />

I think that setting the BP boardable would be awesome, but there are so many Barbossa lookalikes running around in the archipelago, it wouldn't be very special. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
I don't think it has interface pictures. It was not something that was in the original Sea Dogs II they wanted to make, so maybe it was Mickey Mouse's request they couldn't fully fulfill before the deadline. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Yup. The only reference you get to the cursed coins in the stock is that "Deliver a Closed Chest" quest.
 
well as i said there is a code snippit in stock POTC <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Well, the modders got to work on it. That half-code probably caused a few bugs in the stock version, but it would probably be too dangerous to delete it without a backup first.
 
but i think that the Coin was going to have a actual curse, theres reference lik You have grown to old to resist the curse or something like that
