To Morgan Terror : Forget the english officer : big graphic bug behind the head and look at the screenshot. I've tested all the mixed characters and now i think i've found the BEST.

To Kazeite : i don't know if you've tested this mixed characters (rabWhitecorsair3), but he's almost PERFECT. Only, when you are behind him and he looks at the ground we detect "something wrong"(but it's something minor). And, i think in the quest you'll never be in this situation.

I'll be back Saturday.
 
hey, that looks really good! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> he even has a beard! one thing about the color of the hat though: i think that it's pretty good as it is, but i think it could be better when you would put a few darker stripes of green on it. in the movie, he also has a few barnacles growing on it.
 
LOL! That looks pretty good! Though his hat seems a bit silly to me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

But one thing's for certain: This Davy Jones is certainly better than any we've had before. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
i think that the hat looks rather good, actually. except the color, which i mentioned before. he does remind me somewhat of a hill-billy, though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />
 
For the hat, i can't do better (many texture bugs and that's why i need Kazeite for instance <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> ....)..Otherwise, i have a problem with the medium portrait (format 128x128) : it doesn't appear in the start game interface and also in the passenger and ship interfaces . If someone could explain me what is the problem i have to solve. I've renamed the black_corsair portrait and it doesn't also work so the problem must not be the picture but maybe missing code in a file ?
 
yes, that's the hat i meant! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> sorta. i like the picture in the bottom left. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> he seems good enough to me now.
 
more screenshots <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
he's a rather slimy fella isn't he? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> seriously, he looks icky! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sick.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eww" border="0" alt="sick.gif" />

For a temporary texture (Please Kazeite i wait for your work <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" /> ) it seems acceptable <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" />
 
i meant the menu picture. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> but he's indeed pretty good. i think that you need to PM kazeite, as he hasn't been around for quite a while.

I'll do <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> but in the last message he said he couldn't do the texture for now.

oh, so you already did? well, then i don't really think that it would be nessesary.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
No, he didn't send me a message but i was thinking about the last message he left on the forum.
 
Just one question...is his hat a pimp hat or a four leaf clover? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> Just kidding. He looks great for a start. Can't wait to see what becomes of him.
 
looks very promising <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> nice work mate <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Thanks. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> Unfortunately, Kazeite can't do the new texture for Davy Jones and i don't have the skill to do better <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
Looks pretty good for a first try. Definitly better than no Davy Jones. He'll go pretty well with the Flying Dutchman, which is also imperfect, but better than no Flying Dutchman as well. Has anybody tried the Dutchman in Alpha 6 yet?

To Bartolomeu: I tested the Missing Man quest and it does seem to work as long as you talk to the French officer BEFORE talking to another soldier. This is quite tricky though, because the soldiers will all try to talk to you when you get near. When a soldier talks to you, a fight starts and you can't talk to the French officer anymore.

BTW: I have rewritten all texts for your quests now and made a slight modifcation to make the Hangman use an axe. I hope they're an improvement. I attach the file to this post. I'll leave it up to Bartolomeu and Pirat_KK whether they add it into the modpack or not.
 
is this file also compatible with build 14a5?

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> I like what you guys have done here, but you got me thinking. (Not always a good idea... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> )

Have you considered using the head from one of the English Soldier Models, I think Soldier_Eng3, with the pirate with the hook and peg-leg body? Using Inez's TOOL I did a head swap with the Soldier_Eng3 and the pirat10 model, and then used the TOOL to make the model bigger. I was trying to make a really imposing looking Buccaneer Captain sort of model, but I stopped working on it. Reading what you guys have been doing, I tried putting the Davey Jones face on the texture with the following (rough) results:

Just a thought... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" /> Let me know what you think. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />
