Mr. Jeffrey,

IMO there is no worthwile visual improvement if using AA. If it is the sole culprit could disabling AA in DirectX(unless I misunderstood earlier post) solve the graphical glitches some of us experience?

BTW, is the problem with some ships not being able to set battle sail also one you cannot reproduce?

Hiya Vincent,

Well Jeffrey is planning to expand the flag texture even larger because I have found some more historical flags for our period I want to include. I LOVE correct historical variety and flavor. This was a time of NON uniformity. I think that is one of the reasons why I love it so much more than the later 18th century Nelson era that…[Read more]

Stickied to top of thread:

EDIT: LOTS happening folks. Dennis who is our Discord group guy asked me to sticky the information about the Discord group here. Good discussions happening there and more activity than I expected. Here it is: https://discord.gg/Ps3zMtP

My thanks to Dennis for putting this together for us.

Interesting, thank you for your input and invaluable help Jeff!

The best I can offer for an answer is an educated guess, based on what I’ve read how these things work…keep in mind I am actually not an expert in these graphics programs.

I believe it was solely the AA. My understanding is that AA uses the vertex coordinates and a “depth buffer” to determine where poly edges are and what pixels “behind” in…[Read more]

Turning off AA fixed my ship wake issue easy peesy! Jeff, you think i was getting that transparent ship wake because ive had to run the game in “windowed” mode while having AA on or is AA the sole culprit? i run the game on a single rx 580 gpu

Mr. Jeffrey,

I have had this problem on an old AMD card and a brand new integrated INTEL graphic chipset so it seems not attributable to only one hardware setup.
Anyway, I quite understand your problem and time limitations. What annoys me is that it affects one of my fav ships. I do not play to beat the game, looking good while playing is much…[Read more]

In RESOURCEINItextsHeroDescribe.txt, Svendson is heroLastname_145. A little further down in that same file, the unique model used is heroModel_145 {Depp12}.

For starting ship/gear, the file ProgramcharactersRPGUtilite.c function GrantHeroSpecifics set all of that. To change the starting ship for that character, change the line:

chr.Ship.Type =…[Read more]

The reason for no response is because I can’t make the same thing happen in my game.

First, the problem occurs with AA turned on, but that is probably particular to the video card being used. I only have one, cheap laptop that supports very little graphic properties. When I toggle it on, I don’t get the same problem. If I can’t reproduce a…[Read more]

YES, I have reported similar graphical glitch quite a while ago without getting any reaction from the devs. “Good” to see I do not imagine things. Turning off antialiasing solved it for me except for the hebek.

I too am getting occasional musketeers walking around without guns in my game, AA might be doing some weird graphical things too but i just accept it lol.

I am however getting a graphical glitch with my ships wake, please see screen shots…[Read more]

Hey, I made a custom flag for my character (Svendsen) and wanted to know if you could put it into the Personal flags selection for mas, as I have no idea how to do so.

Here’s the flag I made;

I wanted to ask a couple questions for my own modding attempts.

First, is there a way that I can edit the starting gear and starting ship my player uses? And is there a way to specify which skin the starting ship uses as well that I can edit? Reason is, I never quite enjoyed starting with Svendsen’s current ship, and I fell in love the moment I…[Read more]

just a note, musketeers are walking around without guns in my game, and atialiasing still does weird things…

Is it normal for all ports to be nearly or completely out of cannon ammo and powder? Im only level 3, just got a decent ship for fighting, (only been trading till now) and i cant find any powder

Changed “blade29” as per above and it works.

THX, Oldtimer

I do want to get this figured out, but would be much more helpful if I just had a monitor setup of my own to work through, LOL

Everything I see shows that it probably would change the resolution like it did when under fullscreen, but at least show us the real settings it was using, so I’m a bit confused why it didn’t. Also, when you actually…[Read more]
