Whats the largest vessel available in game without being modded? and are there any mods out there that add 'ships of the line' types ?
 
Kennosen, there where made additional ships by the makers of the game. These are locked but can be locked up by the "Build" mods ect.

The Man o War is one of these ships, it is a huge and magnificsent ship whit alot of fire power! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/pirate2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p:" border="0" alt="pirate2.gif" /> . If you dont wana unlock them i do think the battleship is the biggest. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

In an <i>unmodded</i> game, the Battleship is the largest ship you can get. If you install build 11, the largest available ship is the Man O' War, which is roughly the size of two(!) battleships.

You can also make the "ship of the line" (ie. a modified Black Pearl) available through build 11 or, if you want to install it separately, Verruckt's QC Shipyard mod (which also requires the 'Viper - `pre-req` for adding ships' mod). You can get those as part of HellAngel_666's mod pack, which should still be available in the ftp section (I don't know if the download entry in the Mod section is still broken).

Hope that helps! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Verructs mod or build 11 ?

can you install both, or do they conflict?

IMHO, Build 11.0 is best, some of Hellangel's mods will work with the Build but a lot will not... Most of the really great stuff is in Build 11.0 - and there are a lot of bugfixes... The game is entirely new, with Build 11.0. You'll love it! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

If there's no crew available in the tavern, it means that you either have hired all of them away and you'll have to wait a few days for more to "line up", or you're so despicable that no one is interested in working for you. <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" />

Too true, Catalina is the sparkling diamond in the rough here.

the Pearl..?

the pearl ? ..where is it? or does it just turn up at a certain stage in the game?

... ''to the south'' ? sounds a bit 'Temeraire' to me catalina.. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
Just a lame attempt to poke fun at myself in reference to the PotC movie, Kennosen. Jack Sparrow's compass was skewed - it pointed somewhere other than north but it still got him where he wanted to go. <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" />

EDIT: Anyways, where is the damm .txt file to edit ? I wanna board the Black Pearl
 
Kennosen,
i just hapeen to have a printout of an old post that has what you are looking for, I'm sorry I can't credit the person who came up with this originally because I didn't put down their name.:

"In Programs/ships/ship_init, scroll down to the bottom where the MOW's are and find <b>refShip.CanEncounter = false;</b> and change it to <b>refShip.CanEncounter = true;</b> , be sure to make a back up copy of the file before you make the change.

You will not be able to buy a Man O'War, but you will be able to encounter one so you can capture it. Sorry but has been so long since I used this I do not recall if you have to start a new game or not for this to take effect, but my vague recollection is that you don't have to start a new game. Hope this helps.
