I think I am going to skin some spanish soldiers now, or do you have them already? Wich country needs soldiers now?
 
To Commodore John Paul Jones: Are you sure that NUTERAL is correct? I know Neutral is spelled as Neitral when LAI groups are concerned, but I think the Neutral nation is called "NEUTRAL" and not "NEUTERAL". I'm not sure though.

What happened before your flag turned into the Dutch one? What did you do? I know that there is something odd with the Dutch flag. It is not properly added to the rigging.ini file (says DatchFlagTex = 0 there <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /> ). And the Dutch flag texture is completely missing from the rigging.dll file as well. Still it works in the game. Weeeiiird. Maybe the Dutch flag somehow is a sort of default flag and all places where no flag is defined, the Dutch flag is used? You should contact Pirate_KK if it remains a problem: Pirate_KK knows a lot about flag usage in the game.

BTW: Great screenshots. I'm looking forward for the first beta of your mod. I have been watching all Hornblower films lately, so I'd like to have all Napoleonic stuff in my game as well. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
I have made a new soldier, the Spanish Officer, it is still a sort of a "Beta" but is it useble

[attachmentid=529] This is the Officer, the orginal is Hugnt18
 
Thomas the Terror what do you want a picture of on your sig, and are you the Tailor?

Which font do you prefer?:

Alas, I know very little when it comes to a ship skinning procedure. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mellow.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":|" border="0" alt="mellow.gif" />
The Spanish officer looks cool, though I am wondering if that is what they looked like. The skin I used is the JMV pack's Spanish Captain, perhaps we'll keep those and make American skins? I have noticed that the coat and waistcoat on the corsair model is one piece and the breeches seperate. Perhaps we could make US Navy officers wearing tailcoats like in the Hornblower series. (The American coats looked exactly like the RN but had 4 buttons on the cuffs and pocket flaps whereas the RN had 3.)
About the skin you made, you could change the green to purple and call it a French officer! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> I don't think that Derringer made officers for the French...
 
[attachmentid=530]<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> guys

You asked me to make an American ship, I've made one for you <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ty" border="0" alt="flower.gif" /> I made the ship from a frigate and I retextured it onthe base of an image of an American ship (internet). I have only the problem with the sails cause it is reversed ( donno how to say it in english <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />) and it's half pirate ( I don't know how that's possible either <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> ) If I have to repaint it because of a ugly piece just say it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> on the top is my screenshot <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" />
 
are you gonna replace my soldiers? The spanish officer i made is really close to the spanish soldiers. So I will make a French Officer of it and then try to make a Spanish one

OOOOOOh you mean american OFFICERS, allright, missunderstanding <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Srry mateys,my picture at my last post was a bit little. That's why I've made a better screenshot of my american ship I had to make <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" />

If you made that up at my post you have misread my post i think <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> I only annouced my ship <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> to all,

For when will this mod be finished?
 
Mad Jack, might I ask how you went about skinning the ship? Did you freehand paint? You might want to try and do something like select the color on the hull and then lighten it. I'd like to tip ypu on how to make the skin a little better quality. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Here is Sir Henery Morgan's French two decker.
<img src="http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h300/_Commodore_John_Paul_Jones/sol_74_gun2.jpg" border="0" alt="IPB Image" />

I took that picture and edited it with a program called The Gimp 2.2, turning it white to show the beginning of what would look like an American ship of the line.

You did a suprisingly good job, better than I could when I just started modding. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Just wanted to help you grow and show you what I'm aiming for.
 
Thnx CJPJ <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

I did do the skinning by hand indeed, I shall try to do what you do. Thanks for the advice <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
I have another prob with the sails: I have made 2, 1 works perfect but the other is weird. When i come on sea i see the sails but all the sails are as I made them except 2 of them, those 2 are from the nation you are at atm. You can see it on the screenshot too, it's very weird <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> matey
 
Here is the 'Acheron' <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />

I like the Acheron there. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I've uploaded a file to the FTP in my folder (Colosseum). It has a bunch of sounds and voice commands from Master and Commander, if you're interested.

I was also thinking: I have several sounds of musket volleys (from Imperial Glory) that could be used if the player has the Musket Volley ability... so when you board a ship you hear a crash of musketry. Just a thought.
 
I did it in photoshop by putting another layer on, and putting the red on that, then i sort of merged them together. For the gun ports i just draged a box around them one by one and filled it with yellow, because the middle was black you couldn't see the yellow there.
 
Wow Thomas... Cool! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> That is going to look amazing ingame.
And the <i>Acheron</i>! Bloody good job there Seb! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />

Colosseum, I have sounds from Akella's game <u>Age of Sail II: Privateer's Bounty</u> in the game... just to let you know.
So, instead of hearing a rough voice say "Yarr! All haans to yer stations!" you hear this, "All hands on deck!" in a rather proper, smooth voice.
