Master Mariner
Ahoy me mates
i was playing POTC NH in iron man mod of course while playing as captain Alexander Putin(i was gonna name him Obama Putin just for fun lol)and i saw a chinese sailor in one of my boarding battles so i was thinking i wanted to make my own story as a samurai who came from the land of the rising sun in the free play only story (maybe if i can create a whole new story)so i was wondering if some one can guide me on how to add new items i already have a ton of japanese weapons and armors from katana to yumi from my mod for mount and blade warband game and yes if anyone can guide me on how to add scenes props to a town (i want to take turk its my fav i don't know why) so that i might change the look of it to sweet my samurai test i already have everything from scenes props buildings weapons items everything i just need tutorials on how i can add them to the game
thanks in advance for the help
 
The main tutorials we've got are here:
Tutorials | PiratesAhoy!

If you're willing to do most of the work yourself, there are always people here willing to help.
But remember the most important thing: Keep things simple.
Especially for your first mod.

I myself have always been interested in seeing Chinese stuff added. Specifically for Singapore.

yes I'm willing to do all the work alone if i can do it alone i don't want to bother and give more hard time for others who are doing great job
and yes ill try to keep things as simple as i can i don't want to create a new island for this purpose maybe shared between Chinese and Japanese and pirates from Singapore but i heard that people don't want new island so maybe change one add new 1-2 or even 3 if i can towns for this purpose maybe think that England is fighting the Asian pirates in that strong hold if i can just add you will definitely sea those mighty Japanese castle hahaha but anyway I'll check this tutos that you gave me
and I'll try my best to do it (i have about 13 days free for me i can work on that )and help and advices on how i should or what i shouldn't do are always accepted
cheer me up lads you will soon see the land of the rising sun pirates coming

edit: maybe not now but can i add Japanese ships lol i can keep it simple can i lets get the first part done and maybe this
 
There are a lot of asian locations in VCO. A little too big in scale but very nice ones.
 
thanks Jack Rackham i'll check them out
and for the love of god anyone knows a program that convert to Gm format i've been looking for one for 2h and found nothing i can't find maya 5.0 for 32 bit windows and the one in Piratesahoy doesn't work for me (it say this version doesn't work for you)i'm in windows 10 pro 32bit and it doesn't need to be maya i use blender and wings 3d if you know any plugin for them that export to gm format you will make my day
 
Al the tools we have can be found here:
Index of /build/tools
GM Viewer and TOOL can both convert GM files to something else.

Though you can already get a long way without covering anything and just passing with the TOOL.
Or easier yet: Use one of those VCO locations. Those are already in GM format anyway.

The nicest thing which may be possible is to put a small arrow at the corner of the map which reloads to an "Asia" Island.
That shouldn't require editing the actual worldmap model, because it adds only an icon.
It could work similarly to Isla de Muerta.

thanks Pieter Boelen for the replay i already downloaded all the tools i know how gm viewer works i can convert to obj files and edit them as i want but i don't know how to convert them back maya dosen't work spend more then 6h yesterday to find anything that convert from obj to gm(or at least import obj then export it as a gm)but no luck found nothing and maya i can't find anything any working download link for 32 bit
can u explain more on how i can do it with VCO
thanks
 
VCO is simple enough. You just need the files, adapt them into PotC and add the relevant code.
They're already in GM format so that's one less thing to worry about.

I've never done it myself, but @Jack Rackham did.
 
oh i see thanks that should help me out even though i wanted badly to add these babies to potc that would look good(can't add more then 12 pics or i would showed ya a great things)

until then i'll download VSO again and start messing with my new installed potc and see how i'll do
 
pk i give up i can't find anything that will export to gm and maya won't work for me i don't know why in the hell so yeah i'll stick being the supportive guy i'll try to tell some people about new horizon and your new game hope that help in the mean while i'll just play new horizon and work on my japanese mod i have shit load of coding so yeah great job everyone
 
hi everyone so today i was bored from coding for my own mod and so i though why not add some Singapore stuff (i work mainly on Japanese stuff here is an example of my latest work
japanese house.blend.jpg
still didn't finish it cuz i'm soo tired to do it now) but i have no idea what they look like ( i assume more Japanese style but ....) and so i remembered POTC for no reason and i though i should ask there maybe create some (for my old post about Asian towns)and give them to someone to add them to the game who knows (i have a shit problems with maya so that's why...)so anyone can support me with ideas and screenies if you can that would help thanks and please i know i shouldn't ask here but i love to ask here as i said maybe it might become the starting work for my Asian towns for my project just need someone with maya and you will find shit load of Asian towns from china japan Singapore maybe others i don't know
 
Adding Singapore would mean more storylines could be added such as AWE, I think I remember seeing that in a previous thread somewhere :/
 
That's the specific reason why I'd want a Singapore.
Of course without anyone to extend the PotC storyline, it doesn't matter much.
