Mod Release AOP Super MOD

i am now busy skinning a bark into a look a like (only in color) of the HSM Endeavour. I shall put it ingame and send a screenshot.
 
Cyberops, I know I'm not the first to say this, and I sure hope I'm not the last, but THANK YOU for putting so much of your own time and effort into this mod. It's unfortunate that the game was released in the state it's in but you have done a great job in correcting it's shortcomings.

I see you're making a whole new ship listing. I was trying that but couldn't find all the places the game referenced the new ship. I see you discovered the placement for low poly crew, but not the reference portraits.

I didn't see a shipwalk file, have you tested that function yet? Did you set it to use another ship's?

I think when you're finished we should make a list of all referenced files so it is easier to make a new ship.

So far there is (That I know)

Ships_init.c under ships - Ship Specs
Ships.h under ships - Total ship ref counts
utils.c under scripts - I saw you added references here to add the ship to the shipyard, but I saw no other ship refs, was it supposed to go here or just easier? Wouldn't the shipyard.c under interface be better? (I might be wrong, I don't know how other ships in the mod were added)
Shipname1_walk.c under sea_ai\walk - I think this is the ship walk file for 1st person view
Shipname1.ini under ships\sailorpoints - File to place lowpoly sailors, right?
bortoutShipname1.tga.tx under \Textures\Ships\Shipname1 - textures for each level of hull armor. How are they referenced in a new model?

We still need to know:
Where portraits for ships are referenced.
Where the descriptions for the ships are.
How to reduce the penality for larger ships.
How is ship fame tracked?
It is possible to make a ship invulnerable (Not just raising HP) from the start so it can be part of your squad and not destoyable. (I mean since godmode doesn't affect your squad and you can't start with more tha one ship)

I was also working on making new cannons but I could find all the refs for that either.

I am also working on restructuring the current ship listings for accuracy and ideas for new ships. I wanted to edit the pinnace down to a small ship again. Add another super ship to compete with the manowar, some larger transports, like a treasure galleon and a royal sloop for vips in your squad.
Having the ship refs could make all this much easier.

Any Ideas?
 
Killer work on the MOD guys, I downloaded the "big slow" file while I was at work. This thing is great, hardly any crashes. I figured I'd tell ya' the few bugs I've found, some of which have already been said.

1) Every now and then, the video for the brothel will freeze the game, no messages, it just freezes. And that's on all 3 comps in my house.

2)The nevis bank has an error. "Cannot find dialog C.nevis" or something of that nature

3)One that has already been mentioned, there's no morale flag on the ships page

4) Every time I board a ship, the loading screen is for the Tavern. Always goes to the right place, so it's no biggie either.

5) After capturing a ship, there's always the dialog that appears to be in french or spanish or something,
Crates du cannon or something of that nature?

anyway, that's all I kind find at the moment, and please know that I'm not complaining, I love this game now,
I am merely trying to give ya' a list of the things I've found. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

The actual game seems to run fine since installing the Supermod, however if I choose to open AOP Super MOD.exe, it crashes right away saying:

AOP Super MOD.exe-Application Error

The Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135).

Is this because I used the cracked.exe file so that I would no longer have starforce? This is the only change I have made, but I seem to remember you saying that this included anti-starforce stuff, or that it was compatible with the patch...

Also - how do you choose the music you get to play the game with?

Oh - and also - is there a complete listing of the changes made to the game in a text file somewhere or something? if it's there, I can't seem to find a readme. Sorry once again for asking questions that everybody else has probably been able to figure out for themselves...

Hey Hertic, did you make sure to install .Netframework 2.0 ? 'cause my other two comps (one's my bro's, the other's my roomate's) couldn't open using the supermod, and it ended up being that they didn't have that installed. You can get it from Microsoft, no validation required, and all that good stuff.

Hope this helps! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" />

Oh yeah! I scrolled back and saw that there were new updates to fix some of these problems, sorry I jumped the gun on my post! lol
 
ok, we really need to start a new post or something.. this one is getting a little big <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Maybe have one for suggestions and discussion, and one for updates only?
 
Yes I think one for bugs and fixes, one for suggestions.

I noticed that I found a new issue.
Thomas fixed the moral flags on the ship interface but now the tavern screen has no flag.

If some one can point me in the right direction I'll see if can't fix it.

I fixed the morale flag on the ship interface,the fix for the Tavern Morale,its uploaded to the AOP Public FTP look for Tavern_Morale.rar.
 
Bug reports are also done at our support forum, the dialog for nevis will be fixed in the next update, the morale flag is already fixed in update 2.
 
I've been having some trouble with the Music in the game:

I got into a battle, and when I left to map, loaded a new game, went to a new territory - no matter what, the music just kept on playing, so for the bulk of the time I was having two music tracks playing at once.

I am downloading the .net 2 framework right now, maybe that will help?
 
Great Mod!

There is one bug that is giving me grief.. just wondering if anyone has noticed..

Basically after boarding a ship and taking it, you get the dialog box to swap ships, or take the loot... this ship is missing information that was there before i installed the mod. It makes it very difficult to move items from your ship to the other ship etc.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Ahh, I see I'm not the only one with brothel CTD's. Anyway, it is the Martinique brothel that crashes my comp, not Guadaloupe. Of couse there may be others that I have yet to visit. But that's my current quest, to visit every brothel in the game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sailr.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":sail" border="0" alt="sailr.gif" /> I'll let you know what I find out.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
It may sounds stupit but can someone tell me how to apply the Super Mod to v1.42?I installed the game and then patch v1.42 because I had Engine problem with my Radeon 9200.The game was fine until I installed Super Mod.I have to add that for the MOD I installed the game again(original one-not cracked!) and then I installed The Mod and all updates.After all I couldn't start the game.There is an error: Engine problem!The game is original, DVD is in the tray...So, on the end I applyed the patch v1.42 again and the game starts.But the problem is that I don't see all this changes that you guys are talking about! It's like there is no Super Mod installed.Could you please help me?I'll be very appraciate. Ah!One more thing! I bought the game in US.Does it do anything?

Shark, welcome to the Pirates Ahoy forums.

First the newest patch that was released 1.42 is full, of Starforce protection files, more than what was in the original game. The Super Mod is meant to be installed on top of a clean install, but not ran yet. On one of these threads in this AOP forum, they talk about removing Starforce and where to download a no dvd patch so that you get around Starforce, then you apply the Super Mod 1.1....and two updates that are again right here earlier in this topic, so go back a coupe pages. Do not install 1.42 if you want to use the Super Mod, they wont work together.

I'm afraid you'll have to start a new game.
 
For those having issues with the brothel video clips CTD read this thread.....

yea i noticed it too i'm looking into it...
 
I've found few bugs too. Hope they will be fixed in update 3 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
just a little message to everyone with problems, i had a heap opf them, then i started a new game and alot of them are solved, not the obvious ones, but alot of little glitches/crashes seem to have come to a halt with my new game, so my best advice is to just start a fresh with the mod. its good fun anyway <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> as i dont think 2 games could ever be the same
