RobC/Alan_Smithee Blacksmiths Mod v. 2.0 ready for D/L

As I write this, my update/expansion of RobC's blacksmith mod is uploading to the server. It's roughly a 16 meg download, since I dunno how to compress or make a `self-extracting`; it's a `folder-tree`-arranged collection of the models and skins and text files that add one blacksmith for each nation, six in all, with unique dialogs, prices, qualities, personalities, etc. Just download it and put the files in the correct folders. The overwrites will be to location_init's and citizen dialogs for Redmond, QC, IM, FdF, Douwesen and Conceicao. (I took the liberty of expanding the dialogs for random Pirate citizens, so they'll tell you stuff about their colony and its people just like anyone else.)

Here're some screencaps.
(Credit to Inez for the anvil model, sort of [I don't even remember where I scrounged it from online, but she made it usable and textured it], and the cannon; and of course to RobC, wherever he's hidden himself, for the original mod.)

I'll probably update it periodically, with better skins or something, and to iron out any bugs that may present themselves; but this is basically complete and needed to be enjoyed by all. Cheers.
 
Wow, looks really good, impressive stuff I say. Cant wait for the upload <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" />

Screenshots looking very good. Trying to download right now. Can't wait to try it out!

BTW: I also found a "Alan Smithee - capnhook v.1" and "AlanSmitheeNewGuns" folder on the FTP. What are those?
 
Capnhook is my first skin release, a reskin of Barbarossa as Captain Hook from that recent Peter Pan movie. The movie is lame but I enjoyed Hook's costume, and the actor who played him, whatshisname... The new guns are three braces of pistols in different sizes. They give you two or three shots each.
 
Hmm. I must have a look at that. Sounds VERY interesting. <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" />

BTW: The actor's called Dustin Hoffman. You're right about the movie: It is hardly Steven Spielberg's best. But indeed his costume's great. As is the music, by the way. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
That was "Hook"; this one was waaay under the radar, from 2003, and called Peter Pan. (<a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0316396/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnxzZz0xfHR0PW9ufHBuPTB8cT1wZXRlciBwYW58bXg9MjB8bG09MjAwfGh0bWw9MQ__;fc=1;ft=21;fm=1" target="_blank">http://imdb.com/title/tt0316396/?fr=c2l0ZT...fc=1;ft=21;fm=1</a> )

Jasan Isaacs was this Hook:

(And my version, in the download; sadly, no hook...)

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v251/alan_smithee/hook.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

I've got to update that download, come to think of it. It has face portraits but isn't included in the tailor mod... would be available from the Pirate island, naturally.
 
Oh. Woops. My mistake. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" />
[Major shame on me here]
 
No worries; either way we're not talking about fine cinema...

How're the movies coming out of the Netherlands? I don't believe I've ever seen one, and I try to see a lot of foreign films. North American cinema is as bad as fast food, and just as nauseatingly prevalent.
 
Let's just say I can't remember ever seeing a good Dutch movie. They all just annoy the crap out of me. Maybe there are Dutch movies that <i>are</i> some good, but I have yet to see them...
The only `non-American` movie I remember really liking is <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250223/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnxzZz0xfHR0PW9ufHBuPTB8cT1hc3Rlcml4IG9iZWxpeHxteD0yMHxsbT0yMDB8aHRtbD0x;fc=1;ft=3;fm=1" target="_blank">Astérix & Obélix: Mission Cléopâtre</a>, but that's French.

BTW: I just tried installing your blacksmith mod, but it isn't working yet. Let's hope I'll have more luck tomorrow...
 
Or mebbe de question be, "Wid what builds it be compatible wid?" <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
After I installed it Build12 shows only blacksreen on startup. I wonder if I changed anything else ?
 
Alan, matey, please be tellin' us what flovors o' PotC ye got dis runnin' on! If'n de stock game or Build 11, den some o' yers files will need merging wid de current Bild 12 files, so yer kin werk okay in Build 12! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> Fred Bob' gonna hold off tryin' it till it clear whether it be ready fer Build 12 showetime! <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" />
 
Loaded old savegame, got lots of problems, dialog not working &tc - so you need to start a new game.

I started a new game via the ModHelper and got a black screen.

Sorta got Redmond working,but I cheated
<img src="http://www.pix8.net/pro/pic/6510rHtQv/278968.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

I only had time to check Redmond code

Locations[n].id = "Blacksmith_Shop";
locations[n].id.label = "Blacksmith Shop";
Locations[n].filespath.models = "locationsinsideBlacksmith2"; // qf" INSIDE is missing from code so it wouldn't load interior
Locations[n].image = "loadingblacksmithshp2.tga.tx";

Nice work Alan, very nice texturing <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" />
