What kind of model are you talking about? A shipmodel or a land location? You can try doing something with Inez's tool, but I don't know exactly how it works.
 
Interior locations? I think you can make/edit walk patches with Inez's tool. Do you have that tool? You can find the options in Scene>Patch. The files you will be changing are the .ptc files.

What are you making? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
I was thinking for ideas for the next build mod and I thought of adding the cargo hold as a location on your ship... maybe you can make one?
 
The cargo hold already is a location on the ship, isn't it? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Is it i know there is crew quarters cabin and i think the third one is cargo hold but it aint called that that is probably y.
 
lol isnt it more like a cargo hold than the deck i mean the deck was the... what am i saying we all know what the deck is!
So maybe a rename is in order?
 
it is called the deck, then theres the captains cabin and the crews quarters.
 
guys i have a quick request:
i recently borded a frigate with my MOW; and i fought for one deck then they surrendered, by taking me to the captain's cabin, but here's the thing i don't understand: my MOW has a corvette- frigate sized cabin [the tutorial deckm while the frigate had the new interior [from the SLiB mod?] of what should have been a MOW's cabin.
what was even stranger was that after i took the ship and switched it for the speed i needed to hunt down a crippled corvette, i entered tha Captain's Cabin and i ended up in a cheap Pinnace like Cabin with two cannons in my bedroom <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:" border="0" alt="ohmy.gif" />h!!!
whats going on?!
why isn't that big cabin kept for the MOW?
why don't i ever see that cabin other than when fighting 2nd rates or 1st rates?
TIA
 
I don't really know why that is. The cabins should be distributed properly for every ship type... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />
 
i remember that on this site earlier, i saw some code referring to adding new ship types, and, according to my memory, i saw some info reffering to which cabin it had. maybe someone with better knowledge of the code could check to see if i'm right?
 
The cabins for ships are set in PROGRAM\SEA_AI\BOAL_Cabin.c. I recently got the idea to be able to set the cabin in ships_init.c instead; that would be much easier. Not sure if it would work though... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

I'm not positive Pieter, but I believe this is the way it worked when these new cabins were introduced. I am sure at the time only certain bigger ships got the bigger cabinsand it took a while before I saw the new Decks as well! ( <b>remember I sent you the pictures of the decks that were all Black...thought they were Burnt or the deck for the "Black Pearl ??</b> )....But I have noticed this "Not Wrong or Buggy" but certainly very unrealistic twist to cabins lately that Lord Nelson brings to the "table" here. Wasn't it Screwface that is most knowledgeable in the cabins....or was it Maximus....can't remember all these modders now and who did what, with what.....I guess Pieter that is why your being paid the "Big Money" !!!

Not sure if it is worth it, what do you think Pieter?
 
Screwface and Maximus both worked on the cabins mod. Screwface made a version, then Maximus made another, then, at my request, Maximus made a version including the best of both versions. I think something will need to be changed then though. How about an ship.cabin line for the ships in ships_init.c? That would make things very easy. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Am I paid something? Big money even??? I was not aware! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
