What about that?

I'v been not playing PotC Build for a while (i blame bugs for that <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" />).

First of all i'm kinda annoyed about that seeing islands dark side in night lightened and same goes for ship deck (sails included) places where dark should be temporarly.

The biggest problems in Build mod are with gameplay/graphics because i haven't found any quests in my game somehow (at least not in pirate island where you start as pirate) yet and i hate those graphic farting places where sail(s) go trought mast(s)/rope(s) and i also don't like the lack of shadows and i'm annoyed seeing this big shiny silver moon with cloudy skies in night allways.
I'm tired of just sailing around without any gameplay (kinda like a simulator ..i like simulators partly but i WANT GAMEPLAY TOO! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />).

These graphic fartings should be fixed one way or another and more GAMEPLAY please! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />
 
What kind of gameplay do you want?

Lighting and shadows are pissing me off right now with the towns in deck scene mod I'm working on. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

I'll admit, some modders have in the past, not been too careful where they have put rope and sail.
That being said, the games engine.exe with it's dll files will do things that we can't control, and it makes for some visual glitches we just have learned to ignore ... before going mad <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

Ahh ... "by the light of the silvery moon".

Just the thing for a cursed Pirate <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />
 
well i HAVE complained a little in my log about the night sky always being the same. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> a little more variation would be nice. now that i think of it, has anyone ever seen it rain at night?

Umm... well... Piratey and interesting to play. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
i'd say PotC has that. but probably not extensively enough. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Moon in real life does NOT look silver it looks more yellowish grey than silver and that's why i'm complaining about.

And gameplay needs be made ALOT more interesting so you have more reasons to play it.
 
the moon actually is that color sometimes. quite frequently outside my window. guess you're having problems with air pollution over there. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />
 
Huh? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> everywhere where i have been i'v always seen moon in yellowish color at night expect at day. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />
 
on the topic of the moon, it's way too big in the game as well. but i think hat if it would be shrunk, the lighting source, which would be still the same, would make it look like it's shining like a sun. the current moon looks kinda spooky at times, at least when the light falls in a certain way on the yards. i don't have anything against the current moon, just that there's so little variety in the nightly skies.
 
Yes the main problem with current moon - Its too big. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
I've been searching for the moon texture file, but haven't yet found it.

Cylon13, if you want better/more gameplay, we'll need to have some ideas. Right now we have the CotBP film quest in the works, as well as the Capture Colonies mod. Those should both be quite good additions.
 
i don't care about the big-ass moon in fable, i care about the PotC one. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> as i asdked before, HAS anyone ever seen it rain at night, except in storms? i don't think it does, actually.

i think the unused ideas floating around in all those older topics would be a good start, if anyone can find the things.
 
I don't care about the rain at night in POTC, I care about real rain. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
LOL! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />
 
well, when it was raining for 4 hours straight in the game, i was almost starting to think it was raining OUTSIDE. that was a bit wierd.

Indeed and yes quests make game interesting too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
