John, Thanks for the report.

I PM’d you about exactly what to do to get the error loggers on. Please send me the files I asked for. Sometimes with enough reloads it will eventually work if it is a character problem because sometimes it will change out the bad character I think??? This game sometimes requires some patience. This is one reason I…[Read more]

Well with Star Wars its supposed to be LONG AGO. Indeed I have always found that interesting. I remember growing up hearing old guys talking about how we were technologically advanced before Noah’s Great Flood. I agree with you completely about human arrogance. Pride has always been the downfall of so many great civilizations and endeavors. It’s…[Read more]

I just created a new game as this character to check things out, and sure enough, I see the Letter of Marque in items, but you need to click the ‘Equip Item’ for the Governor Gen. to recognize such. Try that.

Oh I got the email, but the link it offered for authentication prompted a 404 error on the site.

I did log out, then try logging back in without WordPress, using the name/pass I had selected when signing up and it indeed works now.

One thing that has bothered me for awhile, and since I’m running out of issues I can resolve, I went back to an old COAS save and tried to figure out the Max Taylor problem. This has been a longstanding thing since the original game GOF (correction), and has not been rectified…well, until now.

Here is what every scene with Max looks…[Read more]

Thanks Jeffrey,

I had already caught the Batavia2 description problem. I updated it in the patch with a description very close to the pirate corvair.

Darn it you are correct. That had been fixed but somehow during the plug in updates it must have gone bad again. I had noticed less people signing up again. I do go to see what users are pending…[Read more]

Found a ship description problem for Batavia2. It’s missing, shows (null) when right-clicking for the tool-tip on the Ships screen and needs an entry in the common.ini file. I just copied the other Bataviaxxx versions:

RESOURCEINItextsrussiancommon.ini

string = Batavia2,”Old Dutch Handelsschip”

Ya know…as an aside, you mentioned lack of participation on this site. There might be a simple explanation for that.

I was unable to create an account because the activation link I was emailed did not work — got a 404 error when I clicked it. I sent a message through the contact message facility, but I’m wondering if you never got that…[Read more]

So I went and saw the new Star Wars movie “The Force Awakens” the other night. This movie has been getting rave reviews and was hyped up to the extreme. I thought for sure I was gonna love it – but I didn’t.

So to give you some background… I love Star Wars and most SciFi. I was not only into sailing ships growing up but space ships as well. I…[Read more]

Photos were received John and embedded them in your post. I gave you “contributor” status but it appears that doesn’t allow you to upload pics – only link to them. I simply uploaded yours to my Flickr page. Very pretty photos. That last one almost doesn’t look real but I’ve been many places just like that – where it doesn’t look real – almost like…[Read more]

Jeffrey, VERY COOL!!! I love the idea of Pirates able to get the Blue Bird quest as well. Let’s do it!

Also love the narrative of your experiences. Ah the difficulties of reputation and getting people to like you. SIGH…

Samir,

Yes that is a bug. The highest priority bug on my list. It has to do with the Character index and faces. I have been working on it for months. It has got better and better. It used to be that it would come down in an entire string. Now usually you only see a few entries or only one. The game doesn’t like the enemy captain you are going…[Read more]

I LOVE IT!!! I did the same thing one time Jeffrey and had a whole group of Pirate chicks as captains and companions. I even had a video on youtube of it. Whan PA threw me out of their boat I took down all videos that promoted their site and their mods so that’s why the “Hot Pirate Chicks” video is not longer on my Youtube Channel.

It’s awesome…[Read more]

I PM’d you John. You can send them to my email and I can post them or you can wait a little for me to see if I can give you that ability. I can obviously upload images. I have created 2 moderators. I don’t know if they have that ability or not. I will see if there is some way I can give you permission. Cool narrative though – and yes I have been there!

MK

Thanks for the note. No I haven’t stopped writing. I switch around to different things I am writing quite often. Haven’t done much lately because I have been so busy with family and working on the MEGA PATCH. I actually have 12 different books I am in the middle of writing now. My New Years Resolution is to get several of them actually finished in…[Read more]

A new discovery…dammit! LOL. Commencing with the Blue Bird quest, I found something new…the Puerto Principe shopkeep won’t talk to me about it because of my reputation sitting at near zero, Bloody Assassin; it got a slight bump during the Dutchman quest saving the towns from sieges, but a couple of my crew loyalties were taking a hit since…[Read more]
