Every self respecting pirate captain in film and literature has had a portrait of themselves in their captains quarters.
On the load screen above the words sea of thieves, there is a nice portrait of Merrick. Whilst waiting to load in, it occurred to me that now we can hang pictures, it would be super cool to have a portrait of our own pirates pulling an emote, or surrounded by loot, or any other scenario that could be screen shotted.
@pabio-escobar, I agree! So many good screenshots to have framed.
@PithyRumble, it seems to be the pattern though. ☹️
Not a bad idea.
BUT i wonder how Rare would implement it. All the trinkets we have are the same for everyone, and when the game loads in the stuff, (there is (probably) some kind of pointer/link to a file locally on our drive), the asset gets displayed on our screen. Now if i take a picture of myself, and put it on the wall in my ship, that means the other players do not have that picture, and they have to download it. So when i make a new picture, i kind of create a new trinket. So if we have 200K players that do this, we have 200K new trinkets. So im not sure how Rare would handle this, as a direct download when a player encounters a new picture/trinket does not sound plausible. One solution would be that only you (and perhaps your crew) can see your taken picture, and other players/crews only see a placeholder/generic captain picture.
Spoilsport lol.
I know nothing about programming. But what you say seems to make some sense
