Couple of questions

LordMacAlpin

Landlubber
Okay I have just the stock game fer now.I'll DL mods after thier complete.Now fer mi questions....I've made a few changes tew a couple of swords and made them new oines,they work fione,but mi question is wot do ye do tew make them more available in the stores er wit de merchants?I have yet been able tew find them at any,er on any island?And thar were a fella dat was work'in on new graphics fer de guns,I ferget who,but did anything come of that?
 
<b>LordMacAlpin, </b>have you looked at POTCPROGRAMITEMSinititems.c ? I think that's the file you need to put your swords into the game - take a look at how Scheffnow's Weapons Mod works and you will see the code.

Also you will have to have proper pictures for the stores, did you make those?

Also you will have to have proper pictures for the stores, did you make those?[/quote] Aye! De swords work in the game,my characters use them and use them well.Wot I did was used the game swords but changed thier stats and went to thier dialog files and changed thier names and made them new swords.Like say "blade4" was made into "blade 24".Not that is the ones I uses but to give an example.So the new swords have a pic.Its just thier not showing up in the stores er wit de merchants yet and I was wondering if there were some file I did'nt change er some line dat needs tew be changed tew make 'em mere available.
 
Strike me dead! His druidic Lordship himself! Nice to see you here and modding PotC <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Does your sworddefinition include the line

itm.skiptrade = false;

That should enable trading with your celtic blade <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/duel_pa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ixi" border="0" alt="duel_pa.gif" /> Though if you have the weaponsmod enabled there are so many bladetypes that yours may appear seldom.

HTH

>itmdescr_blade25
 
Ummm, you said you use the UNmodded game, right? It seems like the "skiptrade" thing is not being used in the original game, so what I said doesn't help you at all in the UNmodded game <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" />

After mod Build11 the itemsdefinitions in itemsinititems.c include a section with "skiptrade" like this:

//Corsair's Pride
makeref(itm,Items[n]);
itm.id = "blade22";
// NK -->
itm.skiptrade = false;
itm.skiprand = false;
itm.skipequip = false;
// NK <--
itm.groupID = BLADE_ITEM_TYPE;
itm.name = "itmname_blade22";
itm.describe = "itmdescr_blade22";

Sorry if I have confused instead of helped you <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

But I recommend that you install the Build anyway. It fixes a lot of Akellas bugs and omissions and the game is very much better. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
What he said. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

But if you do want them working in the unmodded game, you have to open
PROGRAMquestsquests_reaction.c
Find the section where blades are given to merchants (scroll down, oh, `3-4` pages I believe) and add a line for your new blade ID copied from one of the exisitng GiveItem...("bladeXX") lines.

I changed her up a bit, made the seahorse golden - put the pics in the same spot above, check it out to see if that's more like what you are hoping for. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Trouble is, with that hull paint job it's naturally dark, so it's difficult to get something lighter without losing the detail. I gave it another go, it's lighter now (check same images) - I hope this is good for ya! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
