📋 About This Mod
in this mod i tried to adjust the materials and props of the jackdaw , cannons and its props, it changes the look of the jackdaw to a more natural ship like people seen in the caribbean demo from 2013 ( Assassins Creed 4: Black Flag - Caribbean Open World Gameplay Trailer - Eurogamer - YouTube)
The ship replaces all upgrades so there are not any upgrades to this mod.
