    Changing the law

    My current project is to overhaul the way attacks on ships are classed as legal or not. At present, either sinking, looting or capturing an enemy ship is piracy unless you have a Letter of Marque from a nation hostile to the target. If you do, it's a legal attack if you fly any non-pirate flag...

    Submarine Films

    Sorry about that, it wasn't meant that way. :oops: So, going the other way: Tomorrow Never Dies: the stealth ship might not count as a submarine but the robot drill which sank the British ship at the beginning of the film probably does. And I'm surprised The Frogmen and The Cruel Sea, weren't...

    Submarine Films

    A View to a Kill: the iceberg boat wasn't a submarine. Dr. No: lived in a modified oil rig. The lair wasn't underwater, it just had a big aquarium. Tomorrow Never Dies: some of the stealth ship was underwater. Some of pretty much every ship in existence has part underwater. Any ship can be...

    International Talk Like a Pirate Day

    One interesting bit I found in that article was this: I'd heard a German version of this song from Santiano: And I'd noticed that when it gets to the refrain (at about 0:32 in the video), the list of names sounds distinctly Dutch, though the names aren't the same as those in the article...

    Fixed Marie Celeste

    I've had another go at this. For a start, I used that version of "console.c" which shows for each of the cabin captains his name, location, and whether 'bAllies' is true. Then it ends by calling 'FindFreeCabinCaptain' to see which slot, if any, will be the next one used. 'bAllies' is...

    My Drawings, Old and New

    A cousin is a child of your aunt or uncle. Since your aunt or uncle are sister or brother to one of your parents, there's a reasonable chance that your cousin is somewhere around similar age to you. A nephew is a male child of your brother or sister, making you the nephew's uncle. (A niece...

    Replica Brig "Phoenix"

    I did, which is why I had a look at the website. It appears to have one YouTube video and a list of links to other pages, mostly social networking sites. In terms of actual information about the ship, it does not seem very useful, especially if you can't understand French. And that's why I...

    Replica Brig "Phoenix"

    For those who don't trust or can't access linktr.ee: Phoenix (1929 ship) - Wikipedia Tall Ship Phoenix For Sale | Wooden Ships Classic Yacht Brokers Apparently she was up for sale at some time - I wonder how much they wanted for her?

    Submarine Films

    A couple more James Bond films have at least some submarine content. "You Only Live Twice" begins with Bond apparently being assassinated and buried at sea, only for the not-so-dead body to be recovered by submarine; and ends with Bond and his girlfriend for this film on a raft which is picked...

    My Drawings, Old and New

    The picture you posted here would be fine for a tattoo. It only needs to be superimposed onto a character texture which is at most 1024x1024, it needs to fit onto the arm section which is a lot smaller than that, and the picture you posted is 481x547. So even that picture would need to be...

    Santiano

    I'm fairly sure that the band is German - well, most of it, anyway - and the first time I encountered the song on YouTube, only the German version was available. It wasn't decades ago, though.

    Of course. :yes

    My Drawings, Old and New

    Ordinarily I probably wouldn't have bothered, but for this: The circles on that kit were wrong in the opposite direction - the outer ring, middle ring and centre spot were the same thickness, which they should not be. Being based on the Spanish flag, the yellow middle ring should be thicker...

    img_20250213_143832605-2-jpg: a short, fat hull with a square sail on the foremast and spankers behind. It looks a bit like the barquentine from CoAS which recently found its way into NH, though that ship has the forward spanker on a mast of its own, a bowsprit, and some more sails...

    Need Help Making some personal alterations (NPCs & Characters)

    It depends on how high you mean. NH can certainly handle the more detailed models seen in AoP:CT and CoAS, and several weapon, ship and character models have been imported from those games into NH. On the other hand, one attempt to introduce a new, very high poly model did not go at all well...

    They certainly like other people's frigates. ;)
