    Released Frigate "Rossiya", 1728

    Does anyone happen to have plans of Willem Barendtsz sloops which brought his crew to safety?

    Hearts of Oak News Update

    Very true, but Unity Pro is comparatively cheaper then most engines though

    Hearts of Oak News Update

    Why not use the Unity engine? There's a very nice and helpful community behind it and it's really easy to use. Also as always I'm interested in making 3D assets for HOO, including ships but I don't have a lot of spare time because of my school and an upcoming internship. Currently working on a...

    Batavia buildplans?

    Ah Port Captain, that's exactly what I was fishing for... If both the mods and perhaps HOO are in need of Napoleonic era merchantmen, then that's exactly what I want to provide. I'm a slow modeler though (lot of school stuff going on right now), but I just want to make a ship model for my own...

    Pieter, I found this: http://www.bymnews.com/new/content/view/8588/80/ It's not much but well.. better then nothing I suppose.

    Batavia buildplans?

    Would HOO be in need of a Retour/galleon-ish type of ship, like the Batavia? I'm not too sure about the time period of HOO but I though it was 18th century and Batavia is 17th. You see, if i were to build a ship i'd find it more important to build it for HOO then for POTC or GOF to be quite...

    Batavia buildplans?

    I'm thinking of finishing my Cutter and maybe even more ships after that, maybe with a focus on tradeships then.

    Batavia buildplans?

    Most interesting. I knew the Batavia wasn't a Fluyt. A type of galleon is indeed more logical. That still means we don't actually know right? BTW how's the current standing with tradeships like the Batavia in both the GOF, the latest POTC Build and Hearts of Oak? It seems to me that there are...

    Batavia buildplans?

    Couldn't get access to the MUSE project files. We're going into a different direction with the project and it's pretty likely I won't need the buildplans anymore. However I'm still wondering what kind of shiptype the Batavia is? The only terms I could find are VOC Retour Ship or Spiegel Retour...

    Batavia buildplans?

    Yeah, except we're already in talks with Het Scheepvaart Museum (Amsterdam), had a concept presentation today. Could still try it though. But we're not even sure if we are really going to do something concerning the Batavia. I was just researching if it was at all possible to get her buildplans.

    Batavia buildplans?

    I doubt that they provide them for free when other sites require payment. I'll try though. It's just that, I saw someone on this forum saying he/she had obtained the plans, however I cant find that post anymore...

    Batavia buildplans?

    Hi guys, Can anyone provide build plans for the dutch Batavia? I'm currently doing a project where we are gonna have to build her in Maya. So far I've only encountered sites which require payment. Me being a student, I cant really afford that. I'd be eternally grateful and perhaps, when she's...

    Cutter (wip)

    Alright, yeah of course. If that's the case I'll happily take those pre-made ship-parts. I had a, perhaps quite stupid question. Are the ropes from the ships all actual mesh? If so how do you properly UV map that? I know I'm not in that stage yet but i just wondered. anyway here's an update:

    Cutter (wip)

    Only Maya 5.0 or anything above it? I have Maya 2012 Student Version. I appreciate the offer about the ship-parts, I really do, but I want to see if I can make a ship from scratch. Also thanks for the explanation from Post Captain's post.

    Cutter (wip)

    Post Captain, Captain Armstrong... i love you guys :) I suspected as much that the rigging is indeed going to be a pain in my you-know-what. However with your tips and tricks I am much more confidant now. I had not anticipated that the maximum poly-count was going to be that high though. I'm...

    Cutter (wip)

    Also, according to the plans the bulwarks have a 'railing' (not to sure about that word) but to create it it will use polygons like mad. Also, there are 3 edges on the bulwarks of which i have two now. The last edge which ends at every gunport is also a polygon-eater. Example: How do you...

    Cutter (wip)

    Hi guys, thanks for interest in my little project. As for what ship-type it is, I am following the build plans for HMS Cheerful I found on this forum. Although I was not planning on actually calling it the HMS Cheerful, more like a unknown Cutter. That way I can afford some minor inconsistencies...

    Cutter (wip)

    Hi, I'm Coen, this is my first thread but i have been snooping around this forums for quite some time now. I've been learning Maya 2012 for about a year now and I finally felt like I could try a ship. I'm not really creating this Cutter with the intention of putting it into the game. I have...
