Hey Jeffrey if it isnt too much to ask could you post the fix for the “Fort sexually identifying itself as a 68 gun boat” bug so i can fix it right away when new ships being added

Tried it its the same

I think the problem with some ships is that they have closely stacked textures, with the underlying ones supposed to be hidden/covered by others. This flicker problem is typically a z-fighting issue. Doing some reading, the depth buffer resolution might be increased in the projection matrix.

Try changing to these values in start.ini and let me…[Read more]

Nevermind the grass is fine now

In Santiago the plants near the port also has flickering

I think that flickering has something to do with the change from DirectX 8 to DirectX 9, actually; the DirectX 8 version does not have this issue. My guess is a slightly different handling of either depth bias or Z bias between the two. I had a similar problem with shadows on the ground when moving to DX9, but got that figured out. However, I’m…[Read more]

On some of the ships I get some flickering not on the entire model just sections of the ship the latest ship I have encountered that is a manowar.Her stern flickers like hell its almost like a driver error (it very might be I have a radeon gpu)

On some of the ships I get some flickering not on the entire model just sections of the ship the latest ship I have encountered that is a manowar.Her stern flickers like hell its almost like a driver error (it very might be I have a radeon gpu) but could forced anti aliasing do such a thing?

Im not really sure how the Fort assault manages resources for example I have the landing troops ability and I want to have all of my crew weapons should I have weapons on all my ships or only on the flagship as the game stacks the crew of the fleet on my ship during an assault

Ah, yes. I had that on my list to resolve. When we add to the base number of ships like we’ve done in some of the recent updates, the fort descriptions in the spyglasses gets messed up (forts are actually included as a type of ‘ship’ but they are the last of the list, so when others are inserted into the list, it skews the fort references),…[Read more]

I have run into some strange thing:

I raided Santiago during the sea battle the spyglass identified the fort as a boat and that it has 68 guns always.The fort was full of smoke and had silent guns yet it still showed 68/68 just a minor thing, but when i began the assault it did load now surpisingly fast beacuse it loaded a ship to ship boarding…[Read more]

A long time ago, I had made this game ‘smarter’ and to recognize when certain array sizes, like for ships, locations, etc. get changed (enlarged to accommodate new places/ships), it will reinitialize the arrays and call the Init functions to populate them with base info. Without this, every time new ships are added, locations added, etc. a brand…[Read more]

Somebody sent me a save game yesterday with this surrender/lose crew bug and it was fixed in yesterday’s update. I found it was a bug inherited from GOF 1.2.

Thanks that was swift

Surrender boarding bug now fixed.

Looking at AoP2 COAS and GOF 1.2 code, this was a bug inherited from GOF 1.2. Did not exist in COAS.

Perfect. Yep, a bug. I lost 242 men after boarding.

I will figure this out.
