I dont know, its just an idea.SImtanic8I'm afraid I'm going to keep the mast there. I would say to get rid of the mast becasue some members might have a theme, like space, and a Pirate ship in space wouldnt look nice.īut what ou have without the mast would lok good for that theme. If the key areas are lined up the the edges of squares though, hopefully Vodhin's lights will line up. But as I say, when it goes into Blender, it will be resized slightly so I have no way of knowing yet. It looks hideous in those colours! I will import it again shortly, and I will colour it black, brown etc.I would hope that Vodhin's coaster lights would line up. Those might look perfect.The only question I would have is whether you have tried Vodhin's coaster lights to see if they actually line up or not.Otherwise this looks great!Thanks, sir! It was stupid to colour it bright green, red, and blue. Hoorah for speedy replies!Looks great Jonny! I doubt most people will color the structure red and green.how does it look recolored to colors most people WILL use? Like black, gray, browns or lighter greens. Though, I'd like to see what everyone else thinks! So I was going to leave it without, and then you can use Vodhin's Light Set or whatever to light it up. Because I was going for the kind of Pirate Ship for a theme park, which never seem to have obvious lights on. And there is a mast in the middle!I will see about lights. I have built up the ends of the boat, with detail being added now. Like stu said, that little stump thing on the front, and maybe some fancy lights at the backside?Thanks! Just a little update, the texture of the wood on the boat has been updated, and will now be recolourable!
I shall start improving the boat right now! Nice ride you have there! The only thing, the ship looks a little simple.
But the textures can always be improved!So this is the ship of 'piracy' you where talking about!Indeed so!Blimey, this is a long post! Thanks again. So the boat wont look out of place as much. I find it a little blurry looking while the steel construction is perfectly sharp.As suggested, the steel parts wont look so 'perfect' texture wise. Which is a must-have for all Pirate Ships!I don't think the texture on the boat itself fits with the rest of the ride.
Particularly the crow's nest in the centre. Though, you are quite right, it doesn't look right on a ride like this! I will sort it out with a more realistic texture.Pirate Ship need to put spot around the galleon with the window, cannon, mast, crow's nest, captain cabin, anchor, helm wheel, and anything that look very best.I shall be adding these parts now. Maybe add a ruff texture to it to look a little older.JoeThe texture used for the recolourable parts are the same as the ones that JCat/Pumper used for Steelworx. Here's an idea! If you use the tool to have invisible paths, it's very possible to make this just like the real ones, with a hole in the bottom! That's why I haven't modelled anything beneath the actual boat, so you can do this!I would add some texture to the supports (red part). That's not to say that I wont be adding more details now to the platform, as suggested in other comments.Also. I was just planning to do the ramp/stairs to get onto the boat, and then you can build it up how you want with CS. I really didn't know what I needed to do to improve the model but thanks to you, I have lots of new ideas!:) Now, onto answering questions, don't be offended if I haven't replied to you directly, I'm sure your answer will be found somewhere in this post!good job.the only thing is the loading station it looks alittle plain personally.i dunno what else u have planned.but everything else looks good.I was planning to make the loading station as plain as possible really, because then, you can easily customise it with all the released custom scenery sets. It was modelled by myself, with Imagineer John doing the animation etc.blue, red, and green areas are recolourable and it'll hold 32 peeps.Before the final, working ride gets imported, I wanted to get any comments that you may have so that I can improve the model before there's no going back! Hello again, everyone! Thanks for all the positive comments. PIRATE SHIP By Jonnyears & Imagineer Johndone! Hoorah and stuff! Remember to read the Read Me I have included in the file, as some of you may not have downloaded a CFR before, and it explains where this needs to go!DOWNLOAD (POST:For now, here's a picture of the Pirate Ship that'll be released soon for your peeps to ride soon!
