Do you use Photoshop?

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Yes CAT i use Photoshop 7 and a long time ago you, if you remember, you uploaded your PSD file on the FTP. I used this psd to realise this map <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

Jason, the map is exactly like in new islands mod and in the game, the originals potc islands are now in different places.
 
Thanks, Screwface. I haven't played with new islands yet and I didn't realize that.
 
I am playing the latest modpack with the new islands update and the small update.

I have noticed the following.

When you hire officers their role, gunner, navigator, etc is not indicated.

When you try to change your level that by talking with a hired officer, that dialogue contains only dots, not the words apprentice, jouney man, etc.

When you encounter ships their nation is only identified by, again, a dot.
 
Is there a tavern and a shipyard on Cayman?

The Tavern, Shipyard and store from Dosessen are closed. I found store in another building but no tavern.

AFAIR there's a tavern, but no shipyard.

Cheers!

I think I know what's causing this. I made a mistake when zipping up the new islands update, because the update for the new islands still contained the old common.ini file. Please take the common.ini file from the latest Post Build 12 Modpack update (without the new islands) and put that on top of your modpack installation. That should solve those issues. I hope... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
Sorry for the trouble. I'll have it fixed soon. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

You don't happen to know where it is, do you? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />
 
I will give it a try and let you know. Do you think I will have to start a new game?

Thanks Pieter <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" />

Starting a new game to have that text show up? I reckon you don't have to. If you have put the Post Build 12 common.ini file in there and the texts still don't show up, then you can try to start a new game. But I reckon you won't even need to reinitialize. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

It's in the RESOURCE\INI\TEXTS\ENGLISH . Sorry. Should've said that. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
Pieter,

I have upload a new update of the new islands mod on the FTP. This update is for the 2-10-2005 Post build 12 version and add some locations, bugfixes and new stuffs. I have added your good common.ini file in the pack because i have added some texts in.

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" /> i'm sorry but i haven't added the swindler bugfixes for the common files who are in this update and in the swindler bugfixes rar files (i think to Lenc_monsters.c and kam_shipberthing_ship.c). I have modified this files since the last new islands update too.

some New stuffs of this update :
We have random encounters in the ports of new islands (to replace citizens)
Locations added in random tresure quest generator.
New locations, stores, taverns, shipyards and houses added on islands (will continue)
I have added the Slib small cabin model in game. Now small and medium ships (class >2) have the small cabin model and big ships (class 1, 2 and some big ships of class 3) have the normal cabin model. I have tested it and it works ! I hope it will work for you too and i hope i have forgotten nothing in the pack <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

Sorry but like usual, new game is required for the new locations <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Cheers <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />
 
Question for you, Screwface. If we've started a new game with the new islands, will we have to start a new game again to add these additional locations at the islands?
 
<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> there, Screwface.

Great work there, matey. I'll be trying out your new update soon.

Any chance of adding the medium sized cabin from the SLiB Mod, so that we'd have small, medium, and of course the normal large cabin? Based on ship class of course.

Cheers, mate <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" />
 
Omg..... I'm so happy there's actually people like you out there to make a great game even greater... *worships*

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" /> I didn't see the medium sized cabin model in the Slib mod packs but now i have found it. Thanks Jack, it is a beautiful cabin model too and i think it is possible to integrate it in the game like for the small model. I will integrate it too <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

Doober, when you start a new game, all the locations are initialised by the program with the locations_init file and all the "islands" files. this files are called only one time in the game, when a new game is started. So if you add a new locations in these files after starting a new game, this location don't "exist" in your game and you'll have to restart a new game to have it. I know it's a problem <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
I can't wait until Thursday. I am really wanting to put together a new modpack and I have plenty to out into it. Unfortunately, I'll only have time after Thrusday. I'm being rather busy with schoolwork still. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

BTW: Maximus has also been doing some stuff with new ship interior models, so I don't know it'll play out with your work, Screwface. With a bit of luck both mods won't influence each other too much. And if they do... Well... Then I'll have to mess around until it works. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Gahh! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> I suppose I will be starting a new game then, there's no way I'll be missing out on all those new locations! Thanks for all your hard work, it does not go unappreciated! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
Maybe it's a good idea to wait until Thursday? When I have made a new modpack release (I hope)? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
Otherwise you might have to start a new game again. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, I just tested the post 12 with build 12.1 (didn't try islands etc. yet but I sure will when all the bugs are fixed <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />) and I must say I'm really impressed with what you guys do to the game, I loved the new layout and the icons and also I was really impressed with the details you've worked into the basic game. I have one problem tho wich I've posted allready, and I would appreciate it if anyone could take the time to check out my post about it, I don't know if it's caused by either me messing up the install (wich I don't think I did, but who knows) or if it's allready a known bug, but with the post 12 and the 12.1 I didn't get any target cursor (It vanished over other ships, friendly and enemy alike) and I don't mean I got a yellow or green one, I didn't get one at all <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
