So here are they - new ships sprites for most Ricky naval units.
As shown in the preview below, the pack contains new sprites for frigates, manowars, monitors, ironclads, clipper and steamer transports, pre-dreadnoughts and dreadnoughts. I left out subs. Also I haven't found a way to make different sprites for the different cruiser types work, so they all - even BCs and CAs - get the PC sprites. As mentioned in the other thread, if someone knows if there's a possibility to give them unique sprites please let me know. All the sprites are generic, so all nations get the same. Maybe I add nation-specific ships later, but let's see....

Download v2 (updated with four additional PDN sprites 9 June 2009)

Preview of PDNs in v2:

Installation
1. I'd recommend to make backups since the pack will overwrite the original ship sprites (except for subs), incl. their spr, bmp files and also their palette files. Otherwise you have to reinstall V/Ricky to get them back if you want.
2. Unzipping should create a folder called "gfx". Simply drop the "gfx" folder in your main game folder "..\Victoria" and all files should be automatically moved to the neccessary destination from there, so you should be ready to play then.
3. Please note: I made those under Ricky, and I don't have a vanilla Vicky installation to check if they work there as well. If both Ricky and Vicky use identical sprites it should work for both, but as said I can't guarantee it. Ricky users otoh should have no probs, if there are still any, please post them.
