You don't set furled sails, you furl your sails.

LOL. The GAME sets furled sails though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />

Sorry about the long time no see. I was at AFJROTC camp this week down in Macon, Georgia. I'm now a Cadet/2nd Lieutenant. Anyway, I'm back and ready to continue working on this mod! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Congrats
 
I have been asked questions about the quest and the storyline. I have thought up the following:

You are a lieutenant in the Royal Navy, going ashore to secure some supplies and recruit some sailors. (This is the base tutorial, modded.)
Suddenly, a French squadron comes and begins to attack, you gather some local midshipmen and run to the docks. You escape on a single masted sloop...a packet ship. (Is there a way to copy the part where you sneak into Oxbay and escape on the French corvette? This would be remodeled to fit the quest.)
Upon you arrival at Redmond, you come across an old friend, whom you served with as mids in a lineship. (Rys Bloom) Then you inform the Governor who promotes you to Commander and gives you a sloop-o-war.

I will add more to this post as more comes to me.
 
I was noticing your posts tend to break the formatting of these forums... is it just me, or does this occur for everyone?

Here is a screenshot:

Ok - New quests/gameplay ideas summarized in <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7464" target="_blank"><!--coloro:#3333FF--><span style="color:#3333FF"><!--/coloro--><b>this thread</b><!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--></a>

Please drop by and post your ideas.

PM me to work on the new quests, since many of the other areas seem to be almost complete.
 
I have finished my voice mod thingy, and have used all commands that I deemed appropriate.
There is also a <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7578&st=0&gopid=151847&#entry151847" target="_blank"><!--coloro:#3333FF--><span style="color:#3333FF"><!--/coloro-->link<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--></a>to a thread i have started about navies &c.

Voice mod thingy? What is that?

Hook
 
It is still in the making, but I have almost all of the hard stuff out of the way... all thats left are collecting the ships not yet finished, etc.
The "voice thingy" is a set of sound files I sent his to replace the old commands. Now the swarthy "Sail Ho!" is replaced with something very formal like "Sir, sail off larboard bow!"

There wasn't anything that was appropriate for that.
 
Merely giving an example. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
Had a really fun run in with a British frigate last night. My sloop-o-war was under American colours. We exchanged a few broadsides and the Englishman ran... only after losing his foremast! I overcame him after a good hour of tacking and putting shots into his stern with my chasers. They struck their colours and I was blessed to obtain a fine Squall in the shop at Doweseen after collecting some prize money (Selling the ship.)!
 
I won't be able to upload anything or do much until some time next week, maybe sooner. This is because i don't have the internet until my new computer is finished, when i get it i will need to install Pirates of the Caribbean, the build mode and also all my programs i use for uploading and my art, eg. photoshop, ftp commander, converters etc., my new computer will be much faster, and have much more space, which will help me do stuff to do with modding.
 
For those who are editing islands: The Spanish skins in the JMV pcak look very American. Use the lieutenant for officers and soldiers. (The Fra_cpt_18 looks like a Continental soldier.)
We need to change that governors and their palaces to Admirals and the Admiralty building. Copy and paste waitresses in lieutenant skins as their aide.

To quest editors: I think that the Rahoul Rheims quest should be changed to a British officer that commits mutiny and becomes a privateer for England's enemies. Your mission is to hunt him down and bring him back to his court-marshal.

The ships are nearing completion, many thanks to Seb'! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Keep checking the to-do list and watch for updates.

Anything that I should know? What's everyone's progress?
