Unfixed Bugs in Build v11

There was a fix for this in the Build Update, AFAIK this was never included in the general Build mod. You can download it directly or just run the Build installation program and just tick the Build Update option.

ps....while i`m here i have a question....

been a gamer since the pub asteroids table games,but this is the first time i have seen mods that seem to be an integral part of a game that was missing on release.
so.....
is this a bunch of the original programmers finishing and updating the game or is it a team or two of "joe publics" who just wished to make the game what it was supposed to be?

because if it is a "joe public" thing,then they should be writing thier own games and making a fortune.
and if its the original team adding to game then they should be buying the company out and forging ahead the genre.

if i havent said it before.....
<span style='`font-size`:7pt;`line-height`:100%'>THANKING THEE KINDLY !</span>
this one game has hooked me by the gizzards with a 9.0 hook for the sea based pirating genre,....
have been a space bound buccaneer for a while,but the olde worlde sea farer version is much ore addictive.
 
Heh, it's basically a bunch of "Joe Public" types, Scratchy. And we'd probably LOVE to put something commercial together... But we're building on someone else's engine, so it's not really ours...

Akella is working on the "real" version of SeaDogs II that they intended to make when Disney swooped in and bought it up and asked them to put together a movie `tie-in` game to PotC... It's just a matter of time before we see it... Looking forward to it, myself.

But yeah, we modders should make our own project - however I wouldn't turn away a modding job somewhere! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
i played seadogs and cuthroats a long time ago,..yet POTC is really addictive.
and its the addictive games that rake in the doubloons,so the powers that be should pull out the proverbial finger and start releasing the piratey genre as much as they do with the monster and gremlins genre.

hats off to the modders,they made morrowind replayable at least 5 times over,also made jagged alliance replayable for 6 years.

so i have high hopes and unlimited admiration for anyone who mods a game,.....especially one that i have got the hots for <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dev.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":d:" border="0" alt="dev.gif" />
 
Heh, glad you're having fun! That's a good part of the reason I mod - to share it with everyone and hope they have fun with it...

The other big part of the reason I mod is because I simply MUST answer the question, "I wonder if..." <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

The core modders for the PMT originally made mods for the old Seadogs game, perhaps if you've not already tried it you can give it a go as IIRC it adds new islands, ships, cannons, quests (and campaigns) and new hireable crew.
Most of the PMT usually hang out over here:

i know the feeling,my hook is 3d modelling,theres no feeling like it,conquering an idea and making it real with your own hands.

doesnt compare to the fine art and skill of modding a game at the source level,but seeing your own ships cruise through a game is a real buzz <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

linked and for perusal tonight ,many thanks,may just blow the dust off the game and try a few. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

If you're a modeler, you should take a look at this game and see what you can do with it... We have always been able to import new ship models into the game, but we need new character models - if you use 3DStudioMax there finally is a way to import them into the game (thanks to Inez Dias of the PMT). Even if they are just slight variations (such as a change in hat or boot), some changes would be MOST WELCOME! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
i could have a go,but most of my stuff a bit different from the stuff needed.....but always up for a challenge.

take a peek here under AJ Rimmer to see my usual models>

the actual site backgrounds and gifs etc are mine too,so i`m not ship specific as i have delved into logos and buildings.

but would be glad to try anything if it helps beef out any work in progress,i can export to *.x and *.3ds
 
<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> Very nice work!!! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

Take a look at the modding tools needed for cracking into PotC at the PotC Wiki - and explore the game a bit - you'll see how things work - and if you've got any questions, just ask, we're happy to help!

But keep in mind that this smiley of mine --> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" /> isn't called "Modding" for NOTHING! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
headbashing is quite an apt smiley,as i tried my hand at modding a few ships into X2,cost me a keyboard and a lamp.

but then they didnt exactly make importing easy by restricting filesizes.

already have a feeling i can make a few mean swords n pistols,and maybe even a custom galleon .

downloading tools now.....a prayer to the great maker for my sanity <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
Well, yer already a bit bent (most modders are), so that should help you along nicely in the process! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
We could prolly unstick dis 'un an' let it sink, though thar might still be some unfixed ones in here some whars! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Yes, I was thinking that, Fred Bob, only I didn't do it because of that very reason... But I suppose they'll pop up as bugs for Build 12, so I'll unsticky it now, and lock it to boot. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />
