Thinking of good ol' Pirates! mod? It was Carribean based, whereas this will be more norse-styled. Rather different style of fighting.

[Vilhjalmr]

Yeah, there's like, less cannons.

[Mirathei]

Yeah, there's like, less cannons.

Precisely

Progress report: I have successfully ported over my ship battle code, and even added some new functions to stop the idiots jumping overboard. Has yet to be tested, but for the amount of coding involved, everything is going quite easily.

But not with medieval pirates,I think.
Looking forward to see those pictures.

Oh yeah, the mod sounds good.
I haven't played pirates in ages.

the mod sounds awesome, cant wait to try the sea battles! But between, just out of curiosity, will the Mount & blade battle size changer work in it?

Of course.


Now have successfully entered a ship battle, but some of the former methods of moving the ships seem malfunctional. I'll have to look at the code for that siege tower.

Nice, just a couple of more questions if you wouldnt mind.  Are you adding any new armours/weapons into the mod? and what about Ron Losey's Realistic Combat Model?

I have a few weapons and helmets I intend to add, but I think that the RCM is a little obsolete with some of the new item stat changes that came with .892.

[Page Anders]

Allright mate, good luck with the mod! Looking forward to it.

[Mirathei]

Progress report: ship battles now fully functional, and there are now oodles of Pirate and Sea Raider Ships patrolling the Calradian  Sea. I have not added any merchant ships or faction ships yet.

I've got a couple nice screenshots, but imageshack didn't want to take them.

[Miclee]

Cool... I can test, if you need testers.

[Mirathei]

May prove useful... I'll send it to you once I think its release-ready and see if you agree.

[Miclee]

Ok.
