I decided to do this because you guys were talking about it. Really wished I hadn’t. I don’t like it. The only good thing I like is slow progress and treasure is a lot more rare. A lot of funny crappy treasure combinations. Corpses often don’t have anything. Special blades like Katanas, etc are harder to get even using savescum techniques.

New Idea.

I know how to add new tabs to the logbook already and had some ideas for adding a clue section just like the Nautical Quiz help tab. So I just put together a whole guide I compiled from several different websites on where all of the Totems can be found. So I am thinking about a totem tab.

Question: Does that make it too easy?

Agreed. It will still fit with the ships I had mentioned (forgot about the Greyhound) as well as in ERAS3. Honestly I have put too much work into ERAS3 not to release it.

The reason I only want modders to have it (at least initially) however is because the people out there in mod land (they know who they are) who really wronged me badly and…[Read more]

The sounds have always been screwy in the AOP games. The 2.1.5.7 uses an FMOD file that isn’t even from AOP. I took it from VCO and modified some of its parameters with a special tool. It worked better than the others and that’s why I used it.

Question for you guys and I apologize if I missed this and you talked about it in the last few…[Read more]

Orazio, Please don’t get discouraged mate! This is some absolutely PRIMO work my friend! Excellent! TOP NOTCH!!!

There are actually quite a number of ships I can think of right now within the ERAS2 period (1648-1725) that the newest cabin would work for. Off the top of my head this cabin should be used for the following ships: RAA…[Read more]

Awesome work Orazio!!!

Thanks for the great new mod/scene. I think this would be a good cabin for the small galleon and possibly a couple of the simple fluyts as well. With your permission I will add this cabin to them as well for the MEGA Patch and new upcoming version of ERAS.

OMG!!! Those look SO DAMN GOOD Orazio! WOW! Incredible work mate! Now that you know your way around the COL files, you may want to take a look at the lower boarding deck files, because there were some COL files missing when I did the import from GIC 4.2. I did some substitutions, but you will sometimes notice daytime conditions below decks at…[Read more]

Thanks for the sky work Orazio. This was something created as a defect by myself because I had imported weather and sky box files from other mods and a couple of sky boxes were hand made by yours truly. This is something I was working on in the patch. I planned to import some new skyboxes in place of the missing skies. I had assumed the problem…[Read more]

That is a great story! Yeah my story occurred in the late 80s before cell phones existed. Nowadays I can simply call my insurance hotline and I get free towing. I should also add that the old guy didn’t charge me thing. When I said “what do I owe you?” He replied, “Not a damn thing son – you just get home safe now.”

The northwest is just so…[Read more]

Love Oregon. When I was stationed at Fort Lewis early in my career I used to drive through all the time going back and forth from home to my unit on leave or four day passes. I broke down on the way home one time in those high desert mountains early in the morning (my wife was getting ready to have a child). It had been raining and those steep…[Read more]

More screenshots from my testing…

This officer of mine seems particularly interested in the wanted posters eh…

Check out the additional icons on the left hand side of the screen denoting my additional fighters. A motley crew! Muah ha ha ha ha!!!…[Read more]

I will run whatever you need me to Jeffrey. I wanted to run performance tonight so I turned off all loggers. It still sometimes lags on transitions. Also textures disappear when the game becomes bogged down. I noticed item textures disappearing from lists. I think this is why the interior of the shipyard disappeared the other day. I’ve never seen…[Read more]

AWESOME!!! Looks SO good!

Simply FANTASTIC Jeffrey! I have FULL confidence that you will figure it out! I announced a little about it on the front page news for the April update.

Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!

I am making some great progress myself so this is exciting. I just wish I didn’t have to travel now. Not gonna let it set me back…
