I only noticed it now (I knew something looked off) but no foliage (trees) is loading for me when I am at sea on my ship looking at island or at port, it’s exactly like if I turn off foliage entirely in the settings (I tested if it looked the same by running COAS and turning off foliage there).
However there is foliage when I am on land itself, and changing the foliage setting appropriately affects it on land. But the setting doesn’t change at all when at sea, and no matter what I set it on it doesn’t show foliage at all.
I am running Windows 10 (fully updated), my nvidia drivers are the latest, I am running the game in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility and as administrator. I installed the directx runtime included with the download too. Running the game with post-processing or safe mode on or off makes no difference, I have put all my game settings on default too.
Here is a screenshot

Hi and thanks to all modders involved in this project.
I have downloaded everything from the mega link (as of 22 June 2017- including Update.zip), and extracted all of them and the game works fine.
I just experience one bug so far, when I go to sea, sometimes not all flags on my ship load, it is just white flag (like surrender flag), some may have a texture, some might not.
If I go to map, and then go back to sea, sometimes all will load, or just some of them.
Silly me… yes both of you are right concerning this and it’s my mistake due to lack of knowledge concerning the subject matter. I am playing a French character indeed, Bernard Desjean.
Also I should have been more clear, it’s not that the flags themselves didn’t load on the masts, but because of the French all-white flag itself I thought it was a bug since it was just a white texture but it’s actually a legitimate flag.
So yes it is not a bug. I am new to COAS in general, been playing the base game for a few weeks now, though I did play POTC back in early 2000s but never the AOP games later.
So after spending time with the base game I decided to try this and been enjoying it so good work all!
No problem! I guess it’s because many haven’t been playing base COAS itself for a while which I suppose is why no one noticed it the difference, I only began playing GOF Eras 2 recently after playing base COAS.
There are two Update.zip files in the mega.nz folder, I’m not sure if it’s intentional or not.
