I think Petros is referring to him writing <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=11144&view=findpost&p=225569" target="_blank">this</a>.
 
I finished a retexture for the AOP battleship, is not a new model, as i still don't know how to do but it is a texture you'll use if you want <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Here is <i>Hms Bellona</i> :

You'll find it on ftp under folder <i>Potential new ships models</i>

<b>UPDATE</b>

I managed to adapt AOP lowmens for potc, you'll find it on ftp under folder <i>AOP lowmens</i>

COOL! I'll add that ship into the game! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
Do these lowmen work right? Their animations, most notably? They look much better than what we have now. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
I tried them and their animation is indeed correct. Cool! I thought somebody had tried before, but it would work right. Strange. It does work right now. I would like to see some higher resolution textures for these guys though.
 
cool! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> i'm always bothered about those ugly buggers poking their heads in front of my spyglass. now they would be at least of decent quality.

YARR! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" /> No more of those ugly bugger buttheads! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Nice stuff Seb! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
 
i'd rather call them boxheads. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />
 
I just put these most excellent guys into my game.
I noticed they they even change their clothes! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> VERY HYGIENIC - now if we could just get some of the players to do that <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
Really, really nice work Seb! Thx!

Jacada:
Go and grab <a href="http://www.s31clan.com/privateftps/pietersmods/potc_downloads/tools/ftp_commander.zip" target="_blank">this</a>, its free and legal and all..
(It should be predefined, so you just will have to start the program and voila! you should be able to connect to the ftp)

Can you help out?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If they have textures, files with a ".Tga.Tx" extension, put then in:
POTC\Resource\Textures

For the models, those with the ".gm" extension, put those in:
POTC\Resource\Models\LowCharacters
 
I was also bothered with those boxy mates ^^ i was very glad to see it worked, i had also thinked to a better texture for them but i don't have time for it... I started the bellona at least one month and a half ago doing it when i could <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
Hm... <b>Seb</b>, maybe you'd like to use different scales for the roof, because those from my <i>Pearl</i> do not quite fit.

Maybe something like this?

<img src="http://kazeite.republika.pl/PotC/gold_scales.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
 
I see you pit some ingame screenshots of the Bellona in your post now. NICE! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
Is this a French ship? Or a British one? I am wondering what to assign her to. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
Edit: Oops. <i>HMS</i> Bellona should have given me a clue. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
Thanks for this one Kazeite <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> i hope you didn't mind the fact i borrowed you this texture, she seemed perfect to me for that kind of roof but i'll try the one you gave me :p

Pieter > Yep, i intended it as a british ship :p as the "Hms" says <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

EDIT :

I tried your texture Kazeite, here is the result <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> as i couldn't choose one i put this one on ftp with the first texture, in the same folder, you'll find it in :

<i>potential new ship models/Bellona with different stern roof</i> folder

what do you think about it?

<img src="http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/9715/bellonafw2.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

I've an exam tomorrow and i'm very tired, i don't really know if i did it correctly, so if anyone see something better for this roof, feel free to post your tries <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Ship is nice. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
But the deck textures (especially mast textures) of AOP could do a little retexture (there WAS some kind of AOP deck retextures somewhere <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />).

That ship gets a minus from me just because of the AOP deck textures. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />
