Rad

Privateer
There is my fleet that I am using just now. One Manowar, One Line ship and one Mini Manowar. The fourth ship is Manowar that I just captured. I can tell you computer is quite weak for something like that. In the battle where is about 10 - 12 ships my computer freezes quite frequently in such conditions.
I have Athlon 3200XP, 1,5 GB RAM, GeForce 6600 GT. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />

Nice ship Skull. Sloop? I think it must be very fast because the area of sales seems to me very large. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
Aye Rad, she be very quick and deadly indeed, 32 LB. and swivel cannons gives 'er a fair bit O' firepower <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> I've used her too and she is fast, 19.2 knots. Even modern ships have problems
keeping up! Because of that I have her in my startmenu. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />

Are you using the Bermuda Sloop or Super Bermuda Sloop? If you're using the super one, you must've done some cheating because she's turned off in the Build 13 Beta by default. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

BTW: For some reason the main sail on the Bermuda Sloop is always showing the wrong way for me. When the wind is blowing from the port side, then the sail is also at the port side. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" /> No, Pieter I think it's still there, 'cause I put the Super one
in only a couple of days ago its in the ships.ini and the entry reads
'Bermudasloop263' and there is one called '163'.
I have to check that one to be sure! However I would not be able to use it
in the startmenu if the link was not there!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
I know she's in there. I put her in there. But she's set to CanEncounter = false and CanBuy = false, which means you will not ever encounter her in the game. So if you want to use her, you change some code somewhere to enable her. I deliberately disabled her, because she's basically an uber-ship. I would like to enable her for one quest, so that the player can get that ship only after quite a bit of effort.
 
Some new ship in game this light Monowar? It is the first ship in row on my screenshot. She never was in game previously. She isn´t bad. Something for enrichment of the game. But the style of graphic performance is a litle different from any current PoTC ships as though she was transfered into the game from some another game. Maybe from AoP? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huhh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:k" border="0" alt="huhh.gif" />

I have looked at my shipyrd and there is Bermuda sloop but only with max 9lb cannons I bought it a try for a short while but something is here what I don´t like what about her design concerns. Some detailes are very roughly performed for example mast and cannons. There aren´t any round surfaces but only some polygonal shaped surfaces. It makes quite bad impress on me. Good thing is steering wheel here but again its shape is very remote from any round shape and it´s a pitty. Some another ships are much better performed. And what about 32lb cannons on such small sloop concerns. Is it real and possible at all? Isn´t it a little unfair against another little ships?
I hope Skull you don´t mind my remarks what about this ship concerns. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":drunk" border="0" alt="buds.gif" />
 
The Light Manowar is from AoP, yes. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
In this case I think I will be quite disappointed by ships in AoP. Some lines of this Light Manowar are too straightforward for my taste and textures are without details and many details are somehow skimped. The Manowars and many ships that were created by PiratesAhoy modders are much better, I think. I hope these AoP ships won´t be taken as patterns for another incoming ships for PoTC (at least without further substantial reworking). I think reworked original PoTC ships has something in their design what I miss at these AoP ships. Maybe now it seems to you as though I say something different from my previous post but I thought it is a piece of work of some amateur enthusiastic modder and in this case I would consider this ship quite good but if it is taken from AoP game, so, in this case I would await something much better from Akella designers. Anyway, this ship causes a feeling in me as though she was somehow different by it´s design from another ships which impacts at me somehow spurious in this game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

Maybe it wouldn´t be bad if I was be able to persuade Suraknar so as he would be willing put some of his ships here! He and group of modders about our League of Independent Bucaneers have tied or tries (I don´t know) to do their own PoTC Add-On but I really doubt already they will be able to finish something usable in the forseeable future. I have seen his partially created Vassa and she looked amazingly and very autentically. Maybe I would write him an e-mail and ask him what he would think about it. But I doubt about my convincing him. He made some nice ships for Sea Dogs Add-On in the past too. What do you think Pieter about it? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huhh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:k" border="0" alt="huhh.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" /> Rad,
I hate to disappoint you, but you will find a lot of this ( texture,ships etc)
in AoP not to mention the bugs and sooner or later the Starforce problem.
The two main characters are in PotC, put in by the modders, you can use
already.I think PotC is far better than AoP which you will loose interest in
very quickly. Sorry mate, I've played the game for a few hours now, but
that is about the best I can say about it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Maybe you are right Nosie and I am sorry you don´t like it. Maybe I won´t like it to but anyway I will buy it maybe at least for the reason I would find out what the game is. But in this case why many people like it? I am sad I can´t do some my practical experiences with this game so far. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />

Hi, Petros. What ship is it? It seems to my I don´t know it yet. Some sloop too? It´s interesting, Skulls like sloops you likes sloops, is there some intent in that or are you at the beginning of game and for that reason do you use such small ships? I seems to me anybody has own favourite ships that use every time and for that reason don´t use some another ships at all. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />
 
I like sloops. They're small, fast and agile. While they don't carry the weight of shot to sink a larger ship, their guns will shred even the largest ship's sails if handled properly. You can force a surrender, or close and board without problems. And it's easier to stay out of the firing arcs of enemy ships with a sloop. A sloop will also sail very close on the wind. If you're using realistic sailing, of course.

The only problem is, you have only a single mast. If you lose that, you're sunk. Literally. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Aye Hook matey,couldn't O' said it better mate, always been a big fan O' smaller agile ships Rad, Impressive te watch a MOW fire'n a broadside volley, but I've always got me rudder pointed to her stern so as that volley ain't fired at me. One O' me favorite times is sail'n Skelly Bob's Gunboat with a crew O' 13 against a MOW, loads O' fun mates <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#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

To be more precise, this is some of the rest of my fleet, 5 ships are missing.

The two mast sloop, the Ketch is becoming my favorite, and I just use the others for trade.
