Is there a chance that a Pirate Captain Proposition has no loot in it? I’m asking because I tried to get the loot many times from a Dutch fleet carrying gold, one time I managed to get it but the other ships sank me so I tried it more times but none of the later tries had given me the loot even tho I still managed to get away with a profit I guess…[Read more]

Perfect. That save and your description enabled me to reproduce the problem, led me straight to it and it is now fixed. Thanks.

Just uploaded the fixed programs to Maelstrom on Itch.

I tested it some more and seems that it only occurs while swapping ships at sea but when I do it inland it doesn’t happen.

I just had boarded an enemy ship and captured it then I closed the capture GUI and quickly saved then opened the trade GUI to move some cargo around, some crew and switch ships then when I closed the GUI it crashed.

Did this happen while trading with another ship at sea? I have not yet been able to reproduce this problem, but knowing the actual scenario might help me.

this happened when I closed the ship trade GUI.

Yes, I tested it for a couple hours and its stable also the new launcher is very good.

From the log, I see 64 bit and I was informed of an issue just the other day. I found and fixed a bug for 64 bit that caused crashes while at sea, so quite likely your issue is the same. Make sure to get the latest Maelstrom update from 12/1.

Hello there, I’m getting some crashes with the new version that happens in sea mode so here’s a link to the system.log: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qBSOV4hShVvGMVlCsUbwVbytx0–C8Z6

I have considerable lag and stutter in buildings when heavily raining/storming outside. Sometimes outside too, but rarely.

Now will this go away if there just is enough(define enough…) raw power in a CPU?

I don’t know the answer because with my one and only generic Dell laptop, with a generic Intel graphic card, I can neither reproduce this p…[Read more]

Well, it’s a bit more complicated than I thought, I appreciate the insight, so it’s kinda a dead end but to make it great again we should basically rewrite the game from scratch and yet a lot more testing to see if things aren’t broke.

Mr. Jeffrey,

very interesting. My comp(old…) is way OP for the vanilla game when it was released but I posted abt. this problem earlier in connection with ERAS. I have considerable lag and stutter in buildings when heavily raining/storming outside. Sometimes outside too, but rarely.

Now will this go away if there just is enough(define…[Read more]

maybe you should explain what are the “Loyal Club” are.

I actually have some insight into this, because I have run a “profiler” to find the slowness in certain segments of the game, and run this on a “weak” machine, graphically.

The slowness is not typically attributable to the graphic effects, but rather another part of the game. I will try to describe, below:

Every game-loop, every engine object…[Read more]

Is it possible to give more graphics options to the game? I’m asking because I have some fps issues in some parts of the game while in others tiles it runs butter smooth, I think the more demanding things are lighting and special effects like smoke. I run on a Dell laptop equipped with an i5 3337U and Intel Hd 4000, I know that a pc with a…[Read more]

shait, that’s pretty bad.

In other news, I will unfortunately not be able to participate in the forums much, since my internet access is quite limited now, and other things in life are getting in the way of time to spend on these forums. I’m also taking a bit of a rest from GOF until the next update arrives, and am using it to make some progress…[Read more]

The game has been updated. But, the distribution method has changed from Mega to Itch.io. Get the latest here:

Also, a crucial fix (per chris gardner’s problem/resolution) has also been applied to the Maelstrom Engine, so be sure get that through Itch.io, too. There are some setup changes, that are all documented in both the Itch.io…[Read more]
