Skin request

I got ya <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" /> Guess I'll have to play without those skins at the moment.

-Sh!fty
 
Okay, got it nailed down. MY MISTAKE, I have so many different files here, I built the ships_init.c off of the wrong version. <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 am sorry! <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" />

I've corrected the files that are on the FTP, same link as above.

These files are meant to be added to a clean installation of PotC, to which a clean installation of B12 (no modpacks) has been added.

You have to START A NEW GAME for the ships to show in the shipyard.

You can also edit your BuildSettings.h to reflect the LuggerCT3 or 2 as your new starting ship.

Let me know if you have any troubles - but I think this should work. <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" />

(sorry for the confusion about the other files)
 
Sigh, looks like I'll have to go through Hell first in order to sail with those beauties <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 got that same bloody ENGINE.exe error I had before...Ok here's the story.
I re-installed build 12 and tested it, it worked so I re-downloaded the files for the new luggers and started up the game, I edited buildsettings.h so I would start out with the luggerCT3, well I started a new game, talked to Malcolm, said I wanted to go ashore...The game was loading and CTD'd.....

I was like <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> NOOOOO!!!!! SO CLOSE!!!!!!

Well, now the game won't start up anymore, same as before...I'm desperate now...It's like I attract danger and errors or something...What must be done in order to play!!

I'm losing my mind <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 need my pills...Rum...Ah yes...Rum <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" />

You know, I had the same troubles with a CTD after BUYING a CT3... Somehow the game is not showing it correctly. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> Not sure why. I'll track it down, no worries... Hang loose... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

And take it easy on the rum, matey - save some for "Elevensies"! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
Aye! <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" />

Well as some of you may have read I just finished High School and graduated with, im my opinion, good marks!

Party time for me <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Well I'm off again, got 2 parties to attend to tonight!

DRINKS ALL AROUND! <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" />

Oh and Cat, thanks for all of your efforts and try and crack this nut, she's a tough one! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" /> Good luck!!

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Sh!fty, and I hope you're having a great time at your party!

I got the files fixed and they are ready to go.

Same link, on the FTP.

MY BAD, I haven't done this in so long, I forgot to include some very important items - <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> - THE MASTS! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

I also had the wrong lugger model, you wanted the one with the cabin, so I fixed that... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

You can buy them in shipyards or set them up as your starting ship.

They look nice... This should fix your troubles with your game, no need to re-install anything, just overwrite this into your PotC directory and you'll be good to go.

Start a NEW GAME... Otherwise you won't see these new ships.

The black, white, and red one (like the cutter) is the LuggerCT3. <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" />

HAVE FUN! <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" />
 
It's 3 PM now, just woke up <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />

I have a terrible hang-over, but the parties were great!

Oh and Catalina, thanks for all of your efforts and don't worry about the mistakes <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Remember, we're all human!! <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" /> Drinks all around!!

Stuck 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" />

Well this time the game will start up and all, but if I select the LuggerCT2 or 3 to be my starting ship it'll crash while starting up. So I just selected my good old Lugger2 for starters, it all went great. I went to the shipyard, bought myself a nice Catalina-made Lugger, it was all going smooth, I was filled with joy, but as soon as I went to the port where I could get a visual on my new vessel...CTD!! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

So I went digging inside Ships.init (the only thing I kinda understand of the build) <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" />

This is what I found:

// Lugger CT3, By CatalinaThePirate, 01/03/2004
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
makeref(refShip,ShipsTypes[n]);
n++;
refShip.Name = "LuggrCT3";
// PS -->
refShip.all = "Lugger1";
refShip.sname = "LuggerCT3";
refShip.No_NK_HFM_modstats = true;
refShip.noNatStatMod = true; // PRS3 04-09-10
// PS <--
refShip.id = refShip.Name; // PSX
////curid = refShip.id; ShipLookupTable.id.(curid) = n-1; // PS
refShip.Class = 6;
refShip.Cannon = CANNON_TYPE_CANNON_LBS12;
refShip.MaxCaliber = 12;
refShip.Weight = Tonnes2CWT(126);
refShip.Capacity = 500;
refShip.CannonsQuantity = 12;
refShip.MaxCrew = 18;
refShip.MinCrew = 6;
refShip.SpeedRate = 18;
refShip.TurnRate = 65;
refShip.Price = 20000;
refShip.HP = 475;
refShip.SP = 100;
refShip.AbordageLocation = "BOARDING_LUGGER";

refShip.Type.Trade = true;
refShip.Type.War = true;

refShip.WaterLine = 0.0;
refShip.SpeedDependWeight = 0.3;
refShip.SubSeaDependWeight = 0.3;
refShip.TurnDependWeight = 0.8;

refShip.InertiaAccelerationX = 0.2; refShip.InertiaBrakingX = 2.0;
refShip.InertiaAccelerationY = 12; refShip.InertiaBrakingY = 8;
refShip.InertiaAccelerationZ = 6.0; refShip.InertiaBrakingZ = 2.0;

Didn't see what I mean? Here it is again...It's this line that bothers me:
refShip.all = "Lugger1";

This means the ship/skin is using the model of the Lugger1 (the Lugger without the cabin!!) And you made a skin for the Lugger2 (the Lugger with the cabin!!)

Could this be it?? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huhh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:k" border="0" alt="huhh.gif" />

It should read Lugger2.

Is the other lugger set to Lugger2?
 
Someone get some rum over here for Lady Catalina the Pirate! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/beer2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":beer" border="0" alt="beer2.gif" />

I downloaded the new version and still got the crash, and it still says Lugger1... <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 desperate...Can you check this again for me Cat? Maybe ask some other modders around here to check it out?

Thnx Cat <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" />

I've got it fixed in the new download, Sh!fty (same link as above).

Remember, you have to start a new game to test this stuff. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> <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" />

Sir Christopher, you are right, I need MORE RUM! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> I honestly thought I'd fixed that - weird part is, I KNOW I looked at it in the game - sailed on the LuggerCT2 with the cabin... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> I did some screenshots, then noticed I needed to fix the skin slightly (that moveable cannon port)... I did that, then updated the archive to upload. VERY weird... I find after I get home (was away from home for a few days) that it's NOT been updated...

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> This game is haunted! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

LOTS of practice, HKD... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> I'm not kidding, unfortunately. I've been a graphics designer for a long time - using Photoshop since v.3.

It helps if you can edit in layers - that's where I can find a lot of subtlety... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> <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" />

We gotta strip this one naked Cat, to the bone...and start rebuilding it from the ground up so we can find, isolate and eliminate any errors there might be.

You have MSN Messenger? Would be a hell lot more easier to communicate that way.

Okay <sigh> let's try this again... I think it'll work, this time. <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" />
