Making a New Lifeboat

Haha. I agree. Better to have an odd new lifeboat than to have no new lifeboat at all. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
well, i'd be looking at all kinds of things, like you can make up out of my captain's log. but i wouldn't mind about the bug at all!
 
While working out my frustration with this boat's wake but touching up on skinning, I thought of playing with the sail.

You have seen my red sails, (left). Now, I have white (center) and Black (right).

I just realized I can do all sorts of two color combinations very easily!

the right one looks like a viking ship. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> kinda funny.
 
LOL! Cool! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
Are you going to release those? So we can use different types of two-colour sails for your ships? Add some variety? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
 
ooh, great. let's make all those sails the:

sunday sail
monday sail
tuesday sail
wednesday sail
thursday sail
friday sail (big smiley?)
saturday sail
easter sail (let the imagination go wild here)
christmas sail
halloween sail
etc.

Let's just say, I'm willing to consider specific color combination requests, and put up on ftp, when I have time. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" />

These would not be for my ships. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
Of course, with minimum modding skills, any player could put them on any ships he/she wanted.

To Morgan, please refrain form downloading or using them ... if it irks you so much. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
 
just clowning around, nothing more. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
BTW I got the idea for the blue and white one from the galleon, in Fable TLC.

On second thought, some of the ships might look better.

These, (Black & Red) seem to improve the looks of the Ugly Fast Barque.
I'm thinking the Pirate Corvette might look better with these as well.
<img src="http://www.pix8.net/pro/pic/7888greeb/1081314.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" />
 
WOW! That DOES look good! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
Argh! I haven´t seen that huge...fallos?..in front of that ship before?!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

But the sails..they sure look DAMNED good! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
looks even more like an early caravel than it used to! and that's good! how about actually using it as an early caravel? for that's what it actually is, judging from the books.
 
Wait? ...did Petros even released that ship? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
I don't recall that he released it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />
 
I think that the black and red sails does something for the Pirate Corvette which is only found twice and captained by pirates both times. I'll put file "sail_Petros_black_red.tga.tx" on ftp

The code changes in Ships_init.c , Corvette6_50 section, would be the addition of this line.<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->    refShip.EmblemedSails.normalTex = "ships\sail_Petros_black_red.tga";<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->

Also, two lines should be out commenting or deleated to complete the effect.<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->//    refShip.GeraldSails.rey_b2    = 1;
//    refShip.GeraldSails.rey_b3    = 1;<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->

ooh. nice. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> i'd still prefer me good ol' crimson ones though.
 
Petros? you'r still working on that yatch/barque? Or what? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
I can't see it on FTP. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/8q.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":8q" border="0" alt="8q.gif" />

BTW. Nice sails you'v got there! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />

Oh, yeah, forgot to answer that.

Yes, I'm still working on it.

Good! I'll be waiting for it to finish. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />

And i recall that i said something about that i won't be using a ship with lesser cannons then sorry if i said so because this shiptype has more cannons than lugger or cutter has. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
