Feared English Admiral
i found a modpack on Jack Sparrow JR's site www.pyrate.dk
its called english fleet. it doesn't work for the build and post build mods because its outdated.
it has 1 brigantine, 1 corvette, 2 frigates, 3 battleships and a MOW.
the thing is, it would need build 11 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> to make it work.
so what i'd like to know is what the ship skin file is called.
and could the skin be incorporated into the file by itself?
my idea is setting them as starters for any ship C.H [Captain Hawk] makes in the future.
could anyone help? Petros or C.H, perhaps?
and if there is anyway we could add them in the same way as Captain Hawk's ships and still have the games work?
any useful information is welcome.

Hi Lord Nelson in POTC Modding i have a tread "Large flags HowTo. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
in it Pieter gives basic info on ship skinning. Also google potc wiki. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
Ship textures are in Pirates of the Caribbean/RESOURCE/Textures/Ships.
Hope this helps. CapHawk <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

What do they look like? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

They worked with Build 11?
Why didn't they make it into Build 12? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

You should seek advice and consent from Jack Sparrow JR before using his skins/ships! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
well, he put it up for download on his site, but said the MOW wasn't finished yet. he never did finish it from what i've seen.
if you have a look at his site, mentioned in my earlier post, go to POTC UK, then to pictures.
i couldn't see them, but maybe you can.
 
I have those files here as well. I have been wanting to add them into the game for some time, but didn't find the opportunity yet. Plus I didn't want to increase the modpack size just yet. I would first want some stable version and only after that add new stuff. But if anyone can make them compatible with the modpack, feel free and I will add them in. Otherwise, it will take a bit longer to add in the stuff.
I doubt Jack Sparrow Jr. would mind us using his skins. At least his mods would be used then. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
there are a few problems though.
from the ones i've seen so far, it cancels out Captain Hawk's MOW mod... in some places, and the deck texture for the MOW doesn't work.
the deck, guns and a patch at the bow at the base of the bowsprit are colourless.
 
You can change the paths to the textures with a HEX Editor. Once I have time, I will have a look at it. I hope I can make it so that no of the naval vessels will overwrite anything else.
 
the MOW doesn't look that good, i think it would be better if Petros makes one based on that model, but not JR's skin.
still, the rest seem to be ok.

I am really in no rush to take this on either.
I'm sure I'll be needed soon enough as beta tester/quest checker.

But we need you at the modding/coding/compiling end of this so if you want, you can send me those ship files and I'll have a <b><u>look</b></u> at them.

The emphasis is on the work "look", I promise nothing at this point.
 
ok, but just IN CASE you decide to help add them, could you switch the colours on the MOW around, yellow in the place of the black lines and black in the place of the yellow lines, and a new figure head.
just incase, i wanted you to know what needs fixing if you decide to add them to the game as new ships
