Getting 3D models ingame

[Pieter Boelen]

If the worst comes to the worst and we can't get it to work on our own, we could ask the Russian modding team if they can give a hand in converting 3D files to working models ingame. They have added several models into the game I am quite certain they made theirselves. You could try contacting them on their <a href="http://legend.seaward.ru/forum/index.php?showforum=11" target="_blank">own forum</a> here. This is the English part of their otherwise Russian forum.

I hope you will eventually be able to get some working models in the game. So far, no new models have made it into our English modpacks. No new ship or location models anyway. All we've got are reskins and modifications based on existing models. Some people seem to have managed it, but they never finished or released their work in the end. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Something the russians did that I think is really feaking cool and I'd love to know how they did it was make a ship with a working compass right on the bridge, beside a steering wheel they also added. I don't care so much about the wheel but if a con like that could be added to each ship, it could replace the humungous compass on the HUD in a higher difficulty mode.

The one I got with Nov post B12 ModPack shows wind direction.
North always points in the direction the wind is blowing, not actual map North. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
