IIRC the Old Ironside had carronades as armament, not cannons.

The 24-pounders were on the gun deck, the carronades were up on the spar deck. Either way, what a beautiful ship! Hats off to you, sir! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
Dear glorious constructer of one of most impressiv frigates, here is a hind for to a better historical correctness, depending on the period the ship should be used for, in the game:
<img src="http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm225/Takeda-One/img_0394_1_1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
c2/3 and c2/7 is the design in her great times as well as the most beatyfull one ;-)

dont tell me u want me to model that ??????????????? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
besides whats wrong with the current one ? (helps me save some polies and brain washing)
 
I thougth you had no authentic reference for the stern, therefor you took that from the corrent version in Boston-habour?! So I hade the hope you would admire my support <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
actually i already had that blue print but of course i appreciate any support
i'v chosen the actual stern becouse its less complicated for both modeling and texturing besides i'm not that good of a shipwright <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
ZarethPL is not that good of a shipwright. [sarcasm] RIGHT! [/sarcasm]

They rebuilt the stern of that ship four times? UH? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
I agree that c2/3 and c2/7 have the prettiests decoration, but I like the stern on the current model too.
It doesn't have quite that amount of artwork, but it's still stylish and does look more American to me with those six stars.
 
yet another small update <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

[attachment=2565:con17.jpg] [attachment=2563:con15.jpg][attachment=2564:con16.jpg]

dam that ship has a lot of ropes <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
IN-game and IN-credible. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> ,

Zareth, if you gave it a visible cabin interior.... that would be the icing on the cake <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

Apart from that .....well done, it's great model <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
damski.
 
Indeed, absolutely beautiful vessel. Really looking forward to this ones release.

Have you got any idea how much more work you need to do before she's finished? I'd like to make an little article on the addition of the United States in the Build mod, but of course the Constitution would need to be a part of the article so I'm not going to make such an article until she's done. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

[attachment=2580:con21.jpg]
is there any way we could increase vant locators support to atleast 12 ???
[attachment=2581:con22.jpg]
should i move 2 last guns over to the rear ports ???
[attachment=2582:gun.jpg]

is that a corronade if so i can replace the current guns with this one
 
She looks great in PotC! But those yellow sails don't suit her; when I add her to my game, I'll set her to default white-sails, just like the Endeavour. That's the same I did for the USA worldmap ships as well.

I don't know what vant locators are, but I imagine you should ask Pirate_KK; it sounds like it's got to do with flags and KK is working on the Different Flags mod.

The stern deck does look a bit empty... as if two more cannons could fit nicely as stern chasers. But if you want to have them there is up to you. Does she have stern chasers below deck already?
 
vant locators are for buildingup rathlines

as for stern chasers she didn't have them thou on plue prints those porst were describes an corronade ports
and i wasent thinkin of addin 2 more guns but moving the 2 lastones
 
Check with Pirate_KK for the vant locators. He probably knows best. Or maybe Petros; he's been doing rigging work for a long time now.

As for the stern chasers: I don't really care. Either way she's doing to be great. No stern chasers would give her a bit of a disadvantage in a chase, but there's a couple other ships that don't have them either. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

And just in case you didn't see it:
