First attempts in skinning

I forgot that I also have Hawk's 64 guns to do ^^ :p and then the pack will be complete


The colors for the frenchs fleets are, blue and yellow for the stern, brown and black for the hull


@Jackamo > I'm using Photofiltre, i've never mastered photoshop, Photofiltre is free, simple and with many possibilities on my taste <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

PS: The <i>Amsterdam</i> is a very great looking ship!!!
 
I've made a start on the 64. I've got a few ideas I'm going to try, like a row of closed gun ports at the bottom. Then I'm going to do the MOW gub skin. I think we'll be ready to go then!
I am also going to wait for the most up to date modpack update before releasing so that the ship_ini.c and common_ini files are the most current. That way this should work as a self extracting zip file and will be really easy to install.

So here's the latest addition to the British fleet. It's a re-working of Hawk's new 64

Hope you like
 
Hey, looking mighty fine there, matey. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

Thanks very much mateys!

I'm away for a week now and won't have access to a computer, but when I get back I'll get on with compiling the pack and getting it onto the ftp.

Hey there!!! I'm not dead! and more over i have found time to make some work, new ships skins and loading screens,


You'll find it on ftp in "new skinning stuff and loadings"

Hope you'll like it!

Excellent work on Hawk's ship Jackamo <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />
 
the skins arent to bad, but the loading screens just seems out of place for a computer game, their lacking something, cant put my finger on what thou.
 
hey guys!
i'm doing my weekly checkup.
capt'n jackamo, the remodelled 64 gunner reskin is looking good, but, might i add a suggestion?
i think it would look even better if you widened the yellow ore lines.
 
I'll agree with Nelson. The areas between the wales need to be thickened.

Any of you want to join the P&E mod team? We need some of your completed works and skills to make the ships.
 
Com. JPJ I've already chipped in my ideas so far on P&E, I'm sure there will be more to come.
As mentioned in this thread there are several skinning projects to be worked upon, skinning is quite a slow process, it took me a week to do the 64. and at the moment I'm trying to suss out Maya. Having a look at some of the stuff from the P&E mod is on my to do list.

BTW if I thicken up the botton yellow ore stripe the gun ports will look to close to the water line.
I've run out of picture space on this thread so I can't post more pics of the 64, the one on here probably isn't the best angle.

Good to see you back Seb'

Nelson, I've got Maya and I'm trying to remodel the stern of the Monowar to get rid if the open galleries.
 
I'm executing the skins some of you asked to and the things they would be pleased to see, feel free to use it as you want and to add it in the P and M addon if you want <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />


For the loading screens > It would be good if we could find what's going wrong, new loading screens would be great anyone has an idea? :X :p


EDIT : I've tried improvements ont the loading screens, tell me what you think about that...
 
Soooo many new skins to work with. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" />
I'm going to be really busy turning all these into new ships.
Have you got plans for anymore French ones Seb'? I think I'll put them together in a separate fleet pack.
I've had a look at some of the links that Pieter sent for Dutch ships, but I haven't started anything as yet because I want to get the British pack finished first. It's slow work as I'm trying to re-model the manowar and learn maya at the same time. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" />
 
I still have, a frigate, a corvette, a fearless and a Hawk's 64's to do to complete the fleet,

If I could get time <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
Good News Lord Nelson,

I've managed to remove those pesky stern galleries. Now it's just a matter of rebuilding the ship, sorting out the textures and getting it back into the game.

Sorry, but this one's not going to be the Victory, I'll try that when I'm a bit better at 3d stuff.
 
hey, everyone starts somewhere.
as a wise man once said [i dont know which of the billions it is]:" A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step".
goodluck, and congratulations!
 
Just a little post to say that i am still thinking about skining, but i've an horrible bunch of irl work, so i've no time those days, that's depressing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

But I don't forget the projects on the work
