Great job GP! Can't wait to use them.
Now I just need some tool to manage all the mods I've collected. Maybe I'll fire up Python next week and see if I can whip something out.... Unless someone else has written a tool already.
Which reminds me, if anyone from Firaxis is listening, it would be nice in the next expansion pack / version / whatever, to have more possible daughters, barmaids, pirates, governors, any character etc. Why does everyone look the same? Firaxis wouldn't have to create them - the mod community would. When the game starts it could look in custom to figure out how many files matching a pattern (e.g., daug_beau_f*.dds) there are, and then randomly assign one of them to each city. Only a small amount of work for Firaxis, the mod community shoulders the creative burden, and the game has much more variety. |

The game is just picular enough to do that already.
Seems to have that for the crew-walk-ons.
Have you tried dropping those file names into your Custom folder to see if the game ever uses them?? |

|

Well, apart from looking for my family, killing off the other pirates and generally dominating the shipping and trading, I now have a new quest - find my black dressed girl. I found her in a nice little dutch port in my current game except she is a blonde.
Nice job! |

I found some flags stashed away in the .fpk files, alternative nation flags. So I simply renamed them (eg flag_spa2 for the spanish), put them in the custom folder, and lo and behold! these flags are sometimes seen flying over towns and settlements! Haven't noticed them on ships yet. _________________ Let the Beast inside you free! |

As I didn't want to exclude people who like blondes, I added the first english daughter to the list. She already has the latest fixes.
Have fun. |

Oh, sorry... being new here and all my navigation seems to be a bit off.
I was looking for the Pirates! forum....
.... seems I've stumbled onto the Couturier Corner.
(damn good work, although why any red-bleeding pirate would notice what color dress old Double-D is wearing boggles my brain)
Howdy from the south 'o Texas! Maybe I can help some 'o ye with those "north of Vera Cruz" treasure maps... being as I'm sort 'er familiar with the landscape and all.
A keg 'o me finest for all ye pirate gits!! |

Thanx for the feedback buddy and all the rest here in this post too ofcourse!
Special thanx to Alpine, who came up with the original design of the black dress. I liked it so much I wanted to 'perfect' it and also because people wanted to see the dress on some of the other ladies. |

When you put these files in the custom folder, will the normal dresses ever show up on the girls or will it always be the black dress. I guess I'm wondering will this give you more variety or will all...lets say french lookers now have on black? |
