Solved Period Weapons

Do you still have those added weapons you were working on, Thomas?
 
still have them. But I got pretty sick of them crashing in development resources, when I tried to equip them. Other characters use them, but if I do, the game crashes.
 
You mentioned that, but I might want to have a look at them at some point and see if I can fix that. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
Edit: Hum... at some point in the future, of course. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
I think it's indeed some others from some Russians mods. We should still add the ones you fixed too. But we need interface pictures for those. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Thanks for the information.
Yes, for those I fixed we need the interface pictures.

By the way, maybe Sim could write the description for these weapons. He has a lot knowledge about History.
 
Good idea. Feel free to propose it to him. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

Hi Bartolomeu and Pieter,

Of course I will help out with weapons descriptions, thankfully I have quite a large resource for weapons of this era. All I need if for you to tell me where the directory of the weapons you have and want descriptions for is.

I am sorry that I can not promise you a timescale for this work but I already have several history projects on the go at the moment <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Hopefully I should have something back to you at least provisionally in 2 or 3 weeks <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Btw, Pieter, I haven't forgotten about Governor names that you asked for and I should have something with you soon.

Also, I know that this isn't the right thread for this topic, but just quickly, I have provisionally gathered together information on 30-40 real Pirates/Privateers/Buccaneers that actually sailed Caribbean waters during these times. Is this something you would be interested in me pursuing? Obviously it would require more work for somebody to actually insert these people into the mod, but on the other hand it would be a good reflection of real life to have these people in there. I guess it requires a new thread to discuss further.

Anyway, hopefully I will catch up with you all in a few days when my workload is a bit lighter. Now I need a beer <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cheers.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="cheers.gif" />

But the weapons' fixes are in the Development Resources, right ? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
Sim just needs the Convertor TX for checking those textures, choose a nationality for each weapon and make the respective description.
 
Your fixed weapons are indeed in there. But not Thomas'. Not entirely sure how much work Thomas did on his weapons yet though.
Anyway, I have now added Sim to our Modders group, so he gets access to the Development Resources too.
 
Thanks Pieter <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Thanks for uploading your files, Thomas. Any chance you can upload the interface pictures as well?
And there's a whole bunch more descriptions than there is weapons there. Hmmm.... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Uhm... what's with bladeC10? That appears to be the PotC stock game Falchion. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
I see that this shotgun (pistol10) is in alpha 9. I know it's from COAS but seriously.... I mean here are modders trying to make accurate uniforms, discussing period weapons etc and now this! How it affects play balance I have no idea.
The way I see it it belongs (if at all) in some cheatmode. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dp_nogd.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ng" border="0" alt="dp_nogd.gif" />
Tell me it's not as bad as I think. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:" border="0" alt="ohmy.gif" />
 
The shotgun is intended to be a unique weapon that can not be encountered randomly at all.
The only way it should be available is by killing Clint Eastwood at the house in the jungle near the Nevis pirate settlement.
It's supposed to be an easter egg and Clint Eastwood is rather strong and hard to kill, so it's not easy to get it.

Unfortunately it appears that despite mine and Hook's efforts to make the shotgun not encounterable at random, it's STILL appearing.
This is very much unintentional and I hope we can sort that out properly one day. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
Same applies to other blades being set to "Unique".

The shotgun is actually from the old Sea Legend is Back PotC mod.
But then that modding team eventually made CoAS anyway, so I'm not surprise it should show up there.
 
Well not as bad as I feared but still .... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
If it's a <u>quest</u> gun item then...? Quest items don't show up unwanted? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mellow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":|" border="0" alt="mellow.gif" />
