The Pirate Isles BETA
--------------------- Version 0.7 Author:Dark Soul Contact: dark_soul108@hotmail.com Known as dark_soul on the official elderscrolls forums. Forum thread: http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.p...howtopic=479160 Or search for "Pirate Isles BETA" INSTALLATION ------------ Simply extract the files to the Oblibion/data folder. The files need to be in the following places for everything to work properly: - Check the file "DSPirateIsleBETA.esp" is in the Oblivion/Data/ folder - Check the "SmallRumKeg.nif" is in the Oblivion/Data/meshes/DSPIModels/ folder You may need to create the /meshes/DSPImodels/ folder. It is very important you spell this correctly for the models to show up in game. - Either start a new character or load an existing one, then go sleep somewhere for the adventure to begin! The Pirate Isles BETA - IMPORTANT!!! ------------------------------------ This is the beta release of my mod, The Pirate Isles. The beta is bug free (to my knowledge), but is not the final version. In this beta you can purchase a ship, hire one of three different first mates, and hire a crew. Once you have your crew you can go looting! Each time you loot your pirate rating goes up, get a high enough rating and you can acquire an upgradeable hideout! Either start a new character or load an existing one, then go sleep somewhere for the adventure to begin! What does the Pirate Isles BETA add? ------------------------------------ - You can acquire a pirate ship! - Hire yon dastardly crew! - An island with a piratey town, where you can hire new crewmembers etc. - The ability to take your ship and crew and raid the high seas, specifically looting merchant ships and fighting the navy! - 3 Different First Mates to give your orders to, a warrior, an archer, and a general first mate. - A slightly bizarre adventure related to skooma. - Work your pirate fame up and acquire you own upgradeable island hideout. - Some basic pirate classes to choose from, namely the corsair and swashbuckler - A second island town, less piratey, with a Navy Outpost. - Work your pirate fame up and new ships will join your fleet. - Capture prisoners on your raids and sell them to slavers. All the islands and interiors are seperate cells, there is no modification of the mainland of Tamriel at all. I suggest you start a new character to play my mod to get the most of the experience. Whats the difference between the BETA and the final version? ------------------------------------------------------------ The main difference is the main quest is missing from the beta. I am putting this out to see what people think of the hiring and control system of the pirates, as well as the looting, i would like to hear your feedback, either head to the official forums and join in on the discussion (search for Pirate Isles Beta) or look on chorrol.com forums under mod projects. (may or may not be there yet) If you don't wander the forums you can email me, but i prefer people to join in the discussion on the forums! Due to likely changes in scripts and feedback from people i hope to make the mod far superior for the final release. This means the final release will likely be incompatitble with saves from the beta release. Whether you try it out now or not is up to you! Heres what else I plan to add after i get feedback from the beta: - More pirates hanging out at the hideout. - More commands available through first mate, including hiring of crew. - Morale for your crew, need to pay them every week or mutiny! - High pirate fame leads to attacks by bounty hunters etc. It will actually give you a reputation (not just a number) - Buried treasure quest (what pirate story would be without it!?) - Everything from the beta release! - 2 More first mates, one a wizard - Governers daughter quest! (what pirate mod could be without one) - Governers son quest (for the ladie pirates amongst us) - Major imperial port. - Possibly voices CREDITS ------- Thanks to my Quality Assurance Boss, Adam, for finding bugs, testing for me and coming up with some good ideas. Thanks to Quarn who shrunk the barrel and added physics to it for the Rum Keg. LINK TO DOWNLOAD SCREENSHOTS A'hargh, and now there be screenshots of the town! At night we like our grog! Those be some pirate ships Pirates need a safe port Avast, a pirate i shall be Below lies a piratey Town! And now there be fightin: The battle commences! Argh, scurvy navy scum! The slaughterfish will feed well tonight... Yar har har! Hideout: Every pirate needs a hideout A place to store ye loot! -------------------- |

You have a bit of a scripting problem / conflict with the dark Brotherhood mod. The recruiting for the DB and the kidnapping cant happen at the same time and they both happen when you are sleeping...so if you have murdered before you sleep ( pray the devil dont make you weep) you will get clubbed and kidnapped and get a partial DB " a cold chill " message....and even if you become lizzy borden after or Ted Bundy...no Dark brotherhood for you ! Argggh mate ..turn off the pirate mod ..get requited for Db and then load with the pirate mod on after or wait until its fixed or hurry up and sleep before you murder anyone and get piratenapped .
Thank you and good night . |

Whoops sorry everyone forgot about this thread. Theres actual forums for the mod here at chorrol.com, i'm still working on the final version.
http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showforum=44 Theres no actual update since the update to 0.71 (back in september, about a week after the release). Occasionally Tessource goes crazy and people can't actually download the file. At which point i just "edit" the listing and save the changes, even if i don't actually make any changes i just hit the save changes button and it restores it all back to normal.

All current sea mods will be completely overshadowed by the upcoming combination of the Island Mod and the Ocean Mod.
This group project has been in the making for over two years now, and let me just say, it's fantastic! Look for it's first release sometime soon. |
