STARTING SHIP???

[nollekepeper]

Hey, does anyone know all the correct lines to change in order to alter your starting ship?
I have installed the build11, and i tried it twice,the first time i changed lugger into frigate in buildsettings.h That gave me a hull&saills of 100% but NO ship to start! Second attempt i changed the characters.init(`c-file`),
ch.Ship.Type = SHIP_NOTUSED_TYPE_NAME;//SHIP_LUGGER; // PS , with ship_frigate. Still no frigate so...

Yarg, ye need to go to "BuildSetting.h" in folder "Program"

Then ye scroll down till ye find these lines.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->#define PGMUS 0 //enable music from Pirates! Gold. Set to 0, and copy your old music_alias.ini back, to revert to stock POTC music.
#define SHOWHP_PLAYER 1 // show HP text (i.e. 65/128) for player
#define SHOWHP_OFFICERS 1 // for officers
#define SHOWHP_OTHERS 1 // for other characters

//MAINCH START PARAMS
#define START_RANK 40
#define START_MONEY 1000
string START_SHIP() {return "Lugger1_" + ENGLAND; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation
//check ships_init.c for all ships' IDs.


//**********SCHEFFNOWs MODS*******************************************
#define ENABLE_TAILORSMOD 1
#define ENABLE_NOSAVEMOD 1
#define ENABLE_RUSHMOD 1
#define ENABLE_WEAPONSMOD 1
#define ENABLE_WEAPONSMOD_DEBUG 0
#define ENABLE_POTCMODHELPER 1
#define POTCMODHELPER_LOCATION "Tutorial_deck"
#define POTCMODHELPER_HARBOUR "Oxbay_port"<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Then go to this part of it.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->//MAINCH START PARAMS
#define START_RANK 40
#define START_MONEY 1000
string START_SHIP() {return "<b>Lugger1_</b>" + ENGLAND; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation
//check ships_init.c for all ships' IDs.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Notice: Its says <b>Lugger1_</b>. This is where you edit your ship. Ye can also change, your money, and your starting rank.

If ye want a Frigate, change it to this.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->string START_SHIP() {return "<b>Frigate1_</b>" + ENGLAND; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Nope, same as usual, still got no ship at all,but i have a 100%hull and saills...

I used " Fearless1_ " + ENGLAND;

 

[CapitainDams]

For the fearless, you have to write "Warship1_" + ENGLAND
Check the name of ship in ships.init

So if i wanna get black pearl from start i shall write this


string START_SHIP() {return " BlackPearl " + ENGLAND; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation

cpt. jack sparrow,

you have to check in ships_init.c. make sure there is a ship with the name that you are using.

you also have to take the spaces out from between the " marks. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />

If you add the nation you must put a _ after the name but the Pearl have no nation so you have to write :
string START_SHIP() {return "BlackPearl"; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation
