In Alpha 8 you can change the starting ship for each storyline in the appropriate file.
They're in PROGRAM\Storylines.

To Short Jack Gold: Any idea when the CotBP quest is going in again?
Would be nice if you could add that. You can always add new stuff inbetween, right? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

That way the story runs from Jack's early days - in his "young" uniform through his grand entrance at "Redmond" (Port Royal) in his "tatty hat" uniform and on with Cutler Beckett, Weatherby Swann, Black Pearl, etc.
Some commands and character definitions (as you know) are now slightly different plus I am trying to minimise the "original quest" parts of the story as "that quest" is now intended to be stand alone.
There are four ways the CotBP can be accessed via Jack Sparrow Quest - one is completed - the "quick way" for those who want to get to the film story quicker <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/duel_pa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ixi" border="0" alt="duel_pa.gif" /> - three to go, and take longer to access CotBP for those who want to stay younger longer <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> - but "should only" require minimal work. (famous last words! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" /> )
I am adding some characters early, such as Bootstrap and Danielle so it becomes more logical as to how Jack would know them later in the story.

My aim is to upload this quest at the weekend when I have dedicated time to upload. (Right now I am in and out like a Yo-Yo!).

I have also progressed with Hornblower - but, as per my PM to you I am having problems with cannon fire during sea battles, so I have held that one up for the moment. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

I hope that all makes sense to you.
 
That sounds absolutely brilliant!
I absolutely agree with decreasing the number of original main storyline parts in the Jack Sparrow story.
BTW: How about replacing Danielle with another character?

Any suggestions? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

By the way I am running the game on the 14.8 but one level down (a mix of the original Maximus and Pirate_KK mods) as for me it runs in a far more stable condition.
However when I upload to the current 14.8 I am finding some characters missing -the victualler at Antigua for instance - so it is taking longer than I had hoped.
 
You can do is upload that one, then I am going back to the last mix too. (Which one exactly, because the last version I had did it just fine)
 
What other character?
Perhaps you could Annamaria, Scarlett or Giselle or make up a character of your own?

So you've got a better-working Alpha 8 WIP version?
Perhaps you could indeed upload that for modpack development.
For whatever reason, it seems Alpha 8 itself is REALLY quite bad. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />
