[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

SuperDurnius said it will make a preparatory work for the interface pictures and send them to Thomas seeing Thomas said once it will make this work.

Anyone knows how to delete a post k

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Tell me (or another moderator) what you want deleted. I don't think you can do it yourself.

 

[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

Thanks for the information.

I asked that just for curiosity. in case, I need to do it in the future..

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Alright then.

 

[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

Hopefully Bartolomeu is still talking to me as I promised to look at some weapons descriptions with him, and I can only apologise to him that I have'nt had the time yet.

I think those weapons also still require interface pictures and without that, I can't add them.

I'm tired of waiting for this..
So, I'll do the interface pictures for the weapons fix.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Good luck!

To SIM :

Here are the weapons .. Each one with a letter. Try to make the description this month because I'll finish the interface pictures over the next weeks..

Hi Bartolomeu,

Here are the weapons .. Each one with a letter. Try to make the description this month because I'll finish the interface pictures over the next weeks..

I should be able to start looking at this, this weekend. Just one question if I may. The weapons are identified with letters, not names. Do you want me to identify them as well, or has this already been done?

There shouldn't be a problem if this hasn't been done, just a little more work for me

I'm tired of waiting for this..

Sorry mate, was I doing this? I thought I was just doing descriptions

Yes to identify also the weapons

This comment wasn't for you

 

[Thomas the Terror]

It was for me. I understand But still, I am a busy guy now

 

[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

Don't worry, be happy Thomas. : I understand your situation.
It's not the end of the world.. But, your absence is a big loss for the community.

To SIM :

I made the interface pictures. Did you finish the descriptions ? We need them so that the community can start working on the period weapons mod...

 

[simwake26]

Bartolomeu,

90% done, just have to finish off the last three. The only problem is that the file is on my home computer and I am working away this week

I'll get the file to you over the weekend if you can wait a couple of more days

The interface pics look great btw.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Yep, the pics do look great. I do hope you still have the uncompressed non-JPG files somewhere though.

 

[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

No problem, Sim. When finished, release the descriptions in this topic so that people ( maybe Pieter ?) can think how to classify all the weapons of POTC and finally to have just a part of the weapons for each period.

I do hope you still have the uncompressed non-JPG files somewhere though.

What do you mean by the uncompressed non-JPG files? what is it ? :?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

When you make an image (from, say, a screenshot), it's in perfect quality.
Then when you save as TGA/BMP/PNG, you keep all that quality.
When you save as JPG, the quality decreases and you get weird effects around the edges.
This is fine for posting on a forum, but it's not so good for use in the game.

 

[Bartolomeu o Portugues]

Alright, Pieter. Understood.
Indeed, the JPG format is not good for the game. For these interface pictures everything was in TGA format.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

If you saved the files as TGA originally, then that's perfect.

Bartolomeu,

Please find attached weapons descriptions as promised.

I only got back from working away today, hopefully it didn't delay you too much.

Please everybody look through and if you think I have made any mistakes, please let me know.

You will find that I have identified the weapons, put a picture to most of what the real-life weapon looks like and also identified the period they were introduced. Hopefully that will help with the weapons mod.
