No more updates?

'ts almost a month since the last post-build update, are you guys finished modding? Or is there some super gigantic update coming? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" />

Pieter Boelen · Nov 19, 2005

We're not finished modding, but I don't think anything big is coming either. There <i>is</i> a new update coming though. I'm hoping to make one today.
The reason there hasn't been an update for so long is that there wasn't much to add for a long time (there is some stuff worthy of adding now though) and that I have been rather busy with other stuff (school; URGH!).

hello,

I would like to know when a new update of island's mod will be released ?

I think it's the only thing lacking....

Pieter Boelen · Nov 19, 2005

I asked Screwface if he could make a new update available, even if it <i>would</i> require a restart. So with a bit of luck, we'll be having a new update soon. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :cheeky

I will have a new small update soon but i have a little small bug to fix before realise it <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :modding

" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
It seems i have succeded to fix the CTD at Guadeloupe and Antigua <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :woot

" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
For the "flying" crewmembers in crew quarters i can't do anything, it seems that's the "sit" locators in the model who are higher of the chairs so that's why the crewmembers are sitting too high. I think we need a modder with the correct tools to fix that ! A coder can't fix it <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :shrug

" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Pieter, when i will complete my update, would you like i upload it on the ftp or do you prefer i mail it directly to you ? In this case, can you remember me your mail ?

We should ask the sources of those locations to fix those.

Who was it, Alan, Maximus, someone else?

That's a shame. Would we be able to move the locators with Inez Dias' tool? I don't know; I never managed to use it properly. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

My e-mail is <a href="mailto

ieter_boelen@planet.nl">pieter_boelen@planet.nl</a>; I think it should also be listed in my forum profile. But e-mails can go lost, so it would be safer to upload it to the FTP. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :yes

Pieter i have upload a small update for new islands mod on the FTP <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :onya

" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

This update contains :

Permanent crewmembers on shore with nathaniel
To activate this mod, go on crew quarters (ship) and told a crewmember that you want men with you on shore.
You can choose the number of crewmembers that you want with you (10 men max, it depends of your ship crew quantity).
You will have to equip each crewmember in weapons just one time (by talking with him).
If a crew member is killed on shore, your crew quantity will be decreased and the dead crewmember will be respawn on next location.
To desactivate this mod, you just have to talk to one of your following crewmembers on shore and told them to return to the ship.
BEWARE : The archipelago is more dangerous when the crewmember on shore mod is enable. Now you can have military raid in jungles or ambush (pirates, natives, escaped slaves) in jungles and Shores !

New stuff : random treasure quest generator has been improved and now you could have to fight small or larger group of pirates on destination island !

BUG FIXES :
I THINK I HAVE FIXED THE CTD OF GUADELOUPE AND ANTIGUA (Check that to confirm please)
Companions go in cabin with you.
Russian talking crewmember in crew deck fix.

IMPORTANT : IF YOU INSTALL THIS UPDATE, YOU WILL HAVE TO RESTART A NEW GAME AGAIN AND YOU COULDN'T PROPABLY CONTINUE TO PLAY WITH YOUR OLD SAVE GAMES (CTD ON THE NEXT SAVE IF YOU CONTINUE TO PLAY WITH YOUR OLD SAVE GAMES).

Screwface.

Here's a locatorfile for the "seadogs"/"Crew's quarters" which puts your sailors on their chairs instead of the air <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Unrar and unzip the attached file and put it into
resource\models\locations\decks\Tut_deck
NOT into the \camp_deck folder (Screwface, what is that folder for? Can't open those files with Inez' tool)

Is that the only location with the seating problem?

I don't really know what for is the camp_deck folder, it's not mine. I have puted all the models for crew deck and cabins in the tut_deck folder so i think this folder is a duplication and is not used in the game. Perhap's we could ask pieter to del it to reduce disk space of the packages.

i think that's the only location with the seating problem. Thanks for your help CCC. I think pieter will upload your zip too, to include the locator file in his next update.

Pieter Boelen · Nov 21, 2005

I'll put that file into the modpack, sure enough. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :yes

" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

I suppose the camp_deck folder came from Maximus' crew cabin mod. He used those files, but I suppose they aren't needed anymore then? Would the same go for capmd and capsm? I reckon those would be superfluous then too, right? Would save a full 30 MB! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :shock

" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />

BTW: I'm wondering if I should/could put the new islands mod into the modpack, instead of having it as additional download. Would be much easier for me to handle. Plus I had to keep the treasure generator mod out of the "new islands"-less modpack version, because the new islands are required. Maybe I could change that, but I don't think I will. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
