Getting Interceptor into the game

Indeed not. You'd need to modify the model for that. To add cannons, you can add them with locators and thus don't need to modify the model itself.

LOL! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> ..damn computer witches. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="<_<" border="0" alt="dry.gif" />
 
Yeah, you've missed <b>Cylon</b>s typo <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Anyway, here's updated sail plan:

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/Int4.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

It's not finished yet, but I'm getting there. I'm finished with masts and now's time for bowsprit and sail fine-tuning. Oh goody...

Oh, and I tweaked hull texture a little.

And here's size comparison with frigate:

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/Int5.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
 
it does look small. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> but maybe not TOO small. still tiny though.
 
Look at it that way: <i>Lady Washington</i> is 21m long. <i>USS Consitution</i> however, is 53m long. (I think. I'm not sure I'm reading data from Wikipedia right <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />)

As far as I can tell, the <i>Interceptor</i>s size is correct...
 
The size looks pretty much OK to me. I see you made the hull a bit more yellow. Nice! She now looks more Brittish to my eyes. The Brig sail plan is also a great improvement! Amazing, Kazeite! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
the USS constitution is a hell of a lot bigger than the pearl. i was surprised to see the warrior next to the victory. the victory is pretty small in comparison! anyway, it looks more or less right. now, what's the hp of the thing? it should stand a bit of bashing. for instance, if an actual chase would be implemented, it should be able to take a few hits from the pearls bow cannons.
 
I haven't been meddling with the stats yet, so if you want to propose something, go right ahead <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
well, it should be of course a bit slower than the pearl. i think it should be much like a normal brig, but a little bit better in everything, except the cargo space being lower and maybe hp too.
 
Update:

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/Int6.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

There's been a slight... sail mailfunction here, as you can see. Turns out, it's the sail locator that snaps to the nearest rope locator, not vice-versa. So when I started lowering sail locators it had no effect whatsoever on sails with ropes - and the original barque doesn't actually have proper rigging in some places, like for fore topgallant sail and main topgallant sail.

So before I untangle sail locators, this fella needs to be properly rigged. Ugh...

Um, any volunteers? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

(But masts themselves are quite finished and ready <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> )
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> oooh, dear. that's what you get when a landlubber goes up the rigging! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> sorry for laughing but it really does look funny. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />
 
WHAAA??? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> HAHAHAHAhahahahehehehehehe... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />

LOL. It's almost the SAME thing what happened with me when i tried to put some should-have or just missing ropes on a ship! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />

It took many tries to get it right ..one picture of a ship was some sails were UPWARDS! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
i think the fore topsail should be less billowy and should end closer to the yard. the fore topmast staysail would then go over the sail, like it should.

I agree. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

Oh and why those masts look so fragile/thin? Eh? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
Looks really nice, Kazeite! Looking forward to seeing her with the rigging fixed! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
Does anyone else think she's sitting a bit high in the water? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> It looks as if she's a bit topheavy... might want to lower her a bit deeper.
