A bug I reported earlier that persists: paying off an enemy(pirate in this case) does not stop him from shooting at me though he flies neutral flag.

Hi,

Tactical battles are an endless PITA, not recommended.

Sometimes you`re not caught while smuggling, I suspect that is dependent on your stealth lvl.

Agree that a stronger time compression would enhance the game.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Well, there is an expensive workaround. I had the ship repainted and now we have the hull planked as it should be.
The problem remaining are the disgruntled sharks trapped in the bilge…

Hi all,

Galleon Ligero hull lacks planking in several places. Walking on deck and in
3D-view I see sharks frolicking in the hold…

Re 1: No, not yet anyway.

Re 2: This bug is addressed, dl latest ver.

Mr. Jeffrey,

yes, labeling seems to work correctly now.

THX for your attn.,

Location names missing.

Hi all,

when approaching an island first time the names of possible mooring locations do not appear above the icons top left. After mooring once, sometimes more times at one such unnamed location names start appearing.

Walk/Run automation.

If the game is set to walk for PC, run must be activated by player when combat starts.
It would be good if run was activated automatically whenever a weapon is drawn and back to walk after sheathing.
I feel kinda simple running everywhere all the time.

Hi all,

you are on to something Marty, but a better solution would be that irrespectively of difficulty lvl the player could specify himself the chance to find things. I have suggested this several times.
As of now I play on Admiral with class 7 ships mostly. Though I must often run or ransom myself from strong enemies I cannot help getting…[Read more]

Sail to Bridgetown? Why?

Sail to function does not work around Barbados, only ships show up but no shore locations.

Mr. Knight,

that was a sad read. Im greatly honoured by your appreciation of my presence here but unfortunately Im not able to help in any substantial way. No coding knowledge and lousy health.
I totally understand your disappointment that so much quality receives so little recognition, I`m disappointed by it too. Perhaps migrating to GOG, Steam…[Read more]

Hi all,

upgraded Maelstrom today and winds blow again, no freezes either.
But it`s not possible to totally remove foliage any longer. Low foliage density however works and seems sufficient for precious stone searching.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Winds stop blowing…

After a couple of latest updates wind speed when entering 3D-sailing falls below 3 on next change and stays there no matter what. If that is by design then it is a very bad change. Battles in particular become boring.
Playing on Admiral if that matters.

Mr. Jeffrey,

after posting my freezing problem I played a session of more than 2 hrs without any frozen screens. And just for the record:

– game froze on changing cell and when I restarted there was a save from the cell I was going to…

I updated as per your post above and have not had this problem as of yet.

THX for your attn.,

Oldtimer

Game stops responding,

abt. once/30 min. after latest update. Screen freezes and exit is only by task manager.
I see a slow but steady decrease in stability of the game.
Worrisome.

Hi all,

sailing for England I encounter 4 Spaniards. I paid off 3, they became neutral. 4-th was out of speaking range so remained hostile.
Anyway, the 3 “neutrals” continued chasing and shooting at me. My standing with Spain is neutral. B-d-y annoying if you ask me.

Good to know.

Hi all,

started a new playthrough and atm it WAD:s. Older playthroughs did not rectify themselves though. Your passengers will, however, complain abt. late arrival(thus you will know their destination) so it`s not game-destroying but annoying as you know what…

Rgds, Oldtimer

Passenger destination.

As of now only one passenger is shown with his destination in the logbook. Other passengers present onboard lack this info and do not show in the logbook at all.
