i want to set my starting ship to te fearless. i can set it to others but it wont let me use the fearless. in the gameplay section some1 said u could encounter it but in the coding it said u cant. maybe i am just not setting it right but i can change the starting ship to others it is just that the fearless is cool. can someone post how to change it to the fearless that works without causing a crash.

btw i did a clean install and it still didnt work

i really wold like some help here plz reply
 
Ah, you need to go to "BuildSetting.h" in folder "Program"

Then scroll down to 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_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. You can also change, your money, and your starting rank.

If you want the Fearless, change it to this.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->string START_SHIP() {return "<b>Warship1_</b>" + ENGLAND; } //omit the nation and the _ if ship has no nation<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I think that should do it for you. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />
 
i was looking through the files and i realized that the fearless was missing some of the ship. files that gace it identity so i changed the variables. i hadnt compared it to the others but thanks for the help. to get the pirate fearless u have to give it a ship.id it is different from the french one.

the mod files are kind of scrambled and not so neat so it takes a little longer to find stuff
