Mr. Knight,

ships availability and lvl according to nationality and
city size/importance is a good idea. But youre not there yet. As of today Ive seen, or rather not seen, some lvl 6 ships for sale at new game start. Maybe lvl 7 too, don`t remember what lvl the bermuda sloop is.
I dont know if thats because they are so rare or…[Read more]

Mr. Jeffrey,

after playing a couple of months game time with unleveled ships I noticed that there is much less ships(max 4) to buy at the wharfs and not better than lvl 5.

I tried entering same wharf a lot of times but never got anything higher than lvl 5 to spawn.
Any thoughts on the possible reason for that?

Hi,

actually I think that Miss Devlin and all other playable chars are UP by a large margin when doing questlines. As long as questline melèe remains as bungled as it was by original devs yet more OP-ing player chars is the only “fair” solution for those doing said quests.
In ordinary combat player would become godlike but there…[Read more]

ITEMS

Hi,

did a search for this:

– if (irand == 1 && makeint(pchar.rank) >=5) {TakeNItems(ch,”blade56″, 1);}

in ShipsUtilities and Items folder but no luck.

Could this be hidden somewhere else? Or just hidden.

Schiavonna,

THX awfully for your help, really appreciated. I`m not interested in having guaranteed spawns though. I only want a random chance for any ship to spawn anywhere at anytime irrespectively of player lvl. Which I think I´ve done, thx to you and Mr. Jeffrey.

I`d like to unlevel weapons now. BTW, I did a little test of your anims as…[Read more]

Mr. Jeffrey,

THX awfully, I used == 1 and it works! A lvl 1 char sees lvl 4 ships at a wharf!

Now perhaps it was unnecessary work. If Mr. Knight levels shipyards according to city size/importance as he wrote, there will be, IMO, no need to bind ship lvl to player lvl.
Player at low lvl will not be able to buy a three-decker unless he finds some…[Read more]

I tried this for ships: if (sti(PChar.rank) = 1). Got message “can`t initialize program” at start.

How abt. changing it to this: if (sti(PChar.rank) >= 1)?

BTW, tested the “unrealistic” i e COAS default ship presence at wharfs on a lvl 1 char and saw some never seen before but none higher then lvl 5.

Rgds, Oldtimer

@Schiavonna

THX awfully. I`ll have a go at it after I gathered enough courage.

DISCARD ITEMS

Hi all,

quite often you get items you do not want to keep, even for selling. A discard/throw away function would be nice. Like click RMB on item while in inventory and get question: Do you want to discard this item permanently? If yes it`s gone, forever…

DELEVELING

Hi all,

could some kind soul point me to where and how to delevel items and ships. So that everything shows up everywhere from day 1.

IIRC correctly in the TES series you only needed to change one digit for every item description, to 1. Time consuming but easy.

I see no reason for items useful at lvl 1 showing up later in game when…[Read more]

Hi all,

playing with latest 64 ver. I noticed jerky PC movement inside buildings.
After sleeping in tavern the movement is normal there.

Outside everything flows smoothly as per usual.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Hi all,

started playing as Speirdyke, one of my all-time fav chars and noticed that his starting rank is now 4. I must say I do not like this change. I`d much prefer starting at lvl 1.

Now some playable chars start with ships way above their capabilities. Not really immersive and a bit unfair to people who in RL were competent enough to run a…[Read more]

PIRATE`S PROPOSITION

Hi all,

this WAD`s for me just the first once. Later proposals end at the target beach.
No enemies no fight/loot, ally ship present but sends no shore party and cannot be contacted by voice or boat. I think this has been reported earlier by another player so it`s probably not my system or install that is to blame.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Hi all,

please make all quests refusable. You can refuse Blue Bird quest, why not other non-national quests too?

Rgds, Oldtimer

Hi all,

why do bermuda sloops and petite luggers not show up for sale at shipyards?

Rgds, Oldtimer

SRY all,

it should be: put items in LOCKER onboard.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Mr. Jeffrey,

used F10 and voilà, there are way less heroes then 146. It works…

Rgds, Oldtimer

Righty,

I did toggle that on before “New Game” but:

– when loading a save on that game I checked “mod options” ingame and the heroes were untoggled. Are they?

THX for your attn.,

Oldtimer

CONSTRAINED HEROES.

Hi all,

the above works on new game only. Should I enable this from start screen options before creating a profile or can I do so when a new char is already done, before first save?
