    POTC Texture Transperancy

    I was right. I don't know why, maybe DDS keeps transparency data better than a TGA, but it worked. Thanks again Cat.

    POTC Texture Transperancy

    Thanks Cat. I remember using this program last year. Its not as organized and nice as the new one, but I think it will handle transparency better. Thanks.

    POTC Texture Transperancy

    If anyone still has the original tga <-> tga.tx converter that Rexman made a while ago, could you put it up on the FTP. I think the new program our Russian friends release doesn't deal with POTC transparency properly. Thanks.

    POTC Texture Transperancy

    I was fooling around with the flags that KAM made for the international relations section of the F2 screen to try and switch the old Fleur type French flag to the Tricolor. When I convert the tga.tx to the .tga so I can edit it, I lose the transperant parts... they become black. Has anyone...

    "Fake" 64 gun 74 gun Line of Battleships

    I know you'll make them right good. I had said the blackpearl because I figured iit for a 44 gun ship... anything with 44 guns would work. The frigate model would work too. Already the hull is very big for a ship with that many guns. There is definitely room for another gun deck. Perhaps...

    "Fake" 64 gun 74 gun Line of Battleships

    Please, by all means, go ahead. With some more gun ports and a nice Nelson Checker she will look right beautiful. Any help would be great.

    "Fake" 64 gun 74 gun Line of Battleships

    You are right a long with my line of thinking. My calculations were based on the actual guns of late 18th century ships. For example, the 64 gun Raisonnable had 12 9pdrs, 26 18pdrs, and 26 24pdrs. Adding it all up and dividing by two to get a single broadside (ignoring bow or stern chasers...

    "Fake" 64 gun 74 gun Line of Battleships

    Right... I thought I had remembered someone saying the added new guns. If they could speak out now, and people were in favor of something like this, I think it would really enhance gameplay. I know a lot of people like sailing the big line of battleships, a mod such as this would add to their...

    "Fake" 64 gun 74 gun Line of Battleships

    I've been crunching numbers and I have come up with a way to "fake" having 64's and 74's. This is entirely dependent on us being able to add more cannon calibres. So, please, if anyone has figured out how to do it, please let me know. What I've done is researched the broadside weight of an...

    Thanks a lot, it worked perfectly. Now I'll get to painting her to look proper and navy like.

    Thanks a lot, I'll try it now. Its the bowsprit from a schooner, and a galeoth's mizzen mast and yards. I got rid of the `fore-mast` and mizzen by replacing them with "roll_of_material.gm" found in the modelswimgoods directory. The size of the roll is small enough that it lies below the...
