[REL] Katana Mod (Haubegen retextured)

Zalioth

Sailor Apprentice
THIS IS NOT ORIGINALLY MINE, THIS IS JUST A CONVERSION TO THE ENGLISH VERSION. ORIGINALLY MADE BY "SPRUT" FROM THE SEAWARD.RU FORUMS.

<a href="http://translate.google.ru/translate?prev=hp&hl=ru&js=n&u=http%3A%2F%2Flegend.seaward.ru%2Fforum%2Findex.php%3Fshowtopic%3D8875&sl=ru&tl=en&history_state0=" target="_blank">Seaward.ru forum with the original post by Sprut (page 2)</a>

Ok, now i've credited the author, this is the katana that he made, ready to be used in the english version. I didn't translate his original description for the weapon, but made my own due to the fact that I don't know any russian. It works perfectly and, in my opinion, it better represents a rarest, most effective saber.

I'll keep on converting reskins and any other little mod that I can cope with in the little free time that I have left from my AI studying (soon I'll have an exam hehe).

Cap'n Drow, if I'm not mistaken, you speak russian, would you be so kind to inform about this to Sprut, and thank him for his impressive work? Thanks a lot ^^.

(Using rapidshare we'll save the priced forum's bandwith, and thus, will allow it to run effectively and free for longer ^^)



By the way, it doesn't require to begin a new game ^^.
 
Nicely done, Zalioth.

Funny you should think I speak Russian. I only know a tiny bit that I've learned from doing the translation work. Not even enough to ask for a Rum or where the wenches are, let alone where the restroom is.

I just happy to be fairly good at figuring out what the jacked up translations from various software translators are actually trying to say.

**grins**

Thanks for converting this, will be an awesome addition to the game.

Well... I had read you translated or something so I assumed it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> , anyway, it was my pleasure, whatever the error, or suggestion you may have about the description of the item (search for katana in the itemsDescripion.txt file), I'll be happy to oblige ^^.



Oh! I'm thinking of editing the random names for people, many of them sound horrible and computer generated (random text characters spammed...). Does this sound too crazy? hopefully it won't affect any quest if done properly.
 
Modifying the random names list should not cause any problems at all. Quest characters are individually initialized at the start of the game. I don't believe anything pulled from the random files should cause any problems, but then you never know.

yea i grabbed that off the ru forums awhile ago, they did a good job on it.

if you look in the game icon files he added a katana icon but there is one already in one of the icon files. so seems akella had intentions of adding one or something.
 
I don't see how modifying the random character name list will mess things up.
Though in PotC at least, the random names are made in such a way that requires you to keep the same number of names on each line.
But if you just replace names, keeping the commas seperating them, there should be no problem.
Unless it's different here than in PotC... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
hey now that's cool. Maybe we'll see a japanese pirate mod or something to go along with the katana! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
There used to be a katana in AOP and it still shows up in COAS on the walls of shops and such.
 
hey!! that's a nice sword ^^ so it replaces the haubegen?hmmm so hard to choose...lol i came to love that sword...but the katana....hmmm <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />
 
I imagine it should be easy enough to rename the model file and replace a different sword.
Better yet, why not add it as an unique item in PROGRAM\ITEMS\initItems.c?

I'll try to look into it... I'm just concerned about the looting... if they have lists with things and probabilities of appearing and where...


About the FTP, I had no idea, how do i use it?
Anyway, rapidshare is really fast and you can use the free mode too. I'll upload it in both ways so everyone can choose ^^.

You can, of course, also submit files to that Download section yourself, provided they're not too large. But just a blade should be fine. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
