Can someone explain this more detailed, what i have to edit and for what... sorry KroKoDyl but it does not make any sense to me...
 
you must change ships_c thus the game knows there isa a ship and to define the ship class.
# define ........


In Ships_init you define the skills from the ship, like cannons, weight, speed and so on.

Copy paste the text from another ship in this class.

Two more question.
Can i make new class or have to work whit old ones, and am i allowed to change the copied skill what i think is right? You know a ship on what you can only see 50 cannon look strange if you open the ship menu and you see it has 100 on it...
 
You cant create a new ship class.

Example:
you wisch to add a brigg, copy paste the briggs ships_ini file. when your new brigg has 20 cannons you must add 4 cannons in the new file.
You can raise/lower the HP or price or capacity from all ships in the Shipp_ini.

In the ship h i only have to add a new class nothing else right? I don't have to change ship quantity or something?

Still not working its does not show up in buy menu.

the define line must have a number.
how many ships you have in game??
when you have 30 ships the next new one must havce the number 31.

#define ship_Brigg(for example) 31

and look in your game folder there is a "error.log".

Ahoy and hi hi

I have inserted 3 ships in AOP. The sailors run in the air .Have everything in the drumming. File tries out. No success. However, stop in the ship. File the Crew on 0 sedate.And with which programme one can put this. PotCWalk? With GM Viewer the vectors checks... nothing. It has not functioned. Excuse for my English. I speak German.
 
Where'd those ships come from? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Do you know and for Black Pearl????
 
I have a Question to this...
I want to add the Dutchmen to the game so i downloaded it.
I copy the Modelfolder of the Dutchmen in the Modelfolder of the game and rename all with 1 (FlyingDutchmen1.tga etc)
Now i have a Problem with the textures because the other Ships in the game have Texturesfolders like Hull1 Hull2 etc and the Dutchmen has only a folder named Textures with all textures in.
How i have to copy these files?! And where must they are...
Sorry for my bad English^^
 
I imagine you downloaded the PotC version of the ship. For the AoP textures, just make those folders and copy the texture files into each of them.
I'm not particularly familiar with AoP though, so if anybody knows better, feel free to correct me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
The Flying Dutchman texture files I imagine. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
Mhm....
i don't really understand what i have to do -.-
I copied the modelfiles in the modelfolder and the texturesfiles in the textures folder....
but what exactly i have to change in the othe files?
in ships.h and ships_init.c???
 
Basically make a copy of an existing entry and modify it for the Dutchman. I can't be much more specific, being very unfamiliar with AoP. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
