First, the original COAS had no decision making for guns at all; if they had more than one gun in their personal inventory, they simply selected the last gun that was entered in the ITEMS/initItems.c file that they possessed. In other words, arbitrary (based on when guns are added randomly or to the end of the list, they get chosen) and…[Read more]

Update for Loyalty version

There was a slight problem with closed doors in the new taverns for Boddon’s, Bermuda, and Tortuga for newly started games. I fixed that.

Great news for I finally encountered a save bug that crashed the game. This was different than the old, notorious one that corrupted save files; we don’t get those (at least I d…[Read more]

If that doesn’t work, crack.exe may not have the permissions to write to the folder it needs to write to.

Perhaps try right-click, Run as Administrator, might resolve?

I think running crack.exe generates a license file that will suffice.

Is it this one?

The link doesn’t work, or the app doesn’t work post install? I still see it in my Mega account as a valid link with files, so wondering what the specific problem is from your end.

Blue rigging on Fast Armed Merchant and 64 gun English 3rd Rater (merchantz and crown) are fixed and uploaded for both common and loyal versions. They shared the same texture.

I tend to agree with MK on this; the PC is arguably OP, relative to opponents, from my own experience. I find it curious others perceive this differently.

Cannonball damage depends on a game option in the Mod Options screen: Realistic Cannon Damage, where it will set variable RTBL to 0, 1, or 2

Then, in STOREinitGoods.c there will be several lines to set Goods[GOOD_BALLS].DamageHull = ?

Look further in that same file for Goods[GOOD_BOMBS].DamageHull to find its values and make them match. The…[Read more]

I believe the Heavy Dutch Brigantine blue texture should be resolved with the latest update. I also resolved the blue rigging on at least one or two ships so far, and will take a look at the Fast Armed Merchant.

The problem is that the specific textures used, can’t be compressed as much as was done and somehow that draws the blue pixels much too…[Read more]

Just use the last link sent…it’s always the same link.

This is news to me; I thought those had been eradicated, because they never happen for me. I can only debug/fix what I know about and I’ve not heard any problems from anyone until now.

First, since you are using the Loyalty version, I need you to download the latest version I just put up. I did this, because I was tweaking some performance…[Read more]

That one claims invalid or expired as well.

Key is F8. Files will be in same directory as START.exe.

Yeah, invite is expired now, so need a new one. After this topic kicked back up, I finally got around to installing and found it expired. I have never used Discord, so it’s all new for me, but as of yesterday, I finally got it on my computer to give it a look see…but unfortunately, since I was late to the party, there is just emptiness for me…[Read more]

I laughed at your “problem” with the headstock shape…because that was exactly the same reason I really did not want a Jackson or an Ibanez in the first place, even though they are pretty standard metal guitars and I was probably gonna get one anyway. But, that headstock?! LOL

I also totally understand your affinity to Gibson, as I’ve always…[Read more]

The commonly available Update has been changed to fix the following:

Schiavonna’s animation adjustments

Fix excellent map textures, Centurion, Sixtrate bluish textures at distance.

The Loyalty update also has a couple corrections; see your PMs

Schecter is a great guitar, but not as many of them around at the time, so not really on my radar during the 90s, when I was looking to replace my cheap Hondo Paul Dean (looked exactly like this one: https://reverb.com/item/1765208-hondo-paul-dean-ii-early-80s-trans-red …but it had been stolen from me) with a “metal” guitar. As you suspect, my…[Read more]
