Hi all,

one at a time was it, well:

– how can I reclassify a ship type? I want to assign the hoy to class 7.

SKILL ITEMS

Some items still in the game were once skill items and described as if they have bonuses, though they do not. They do not have any bonus points in their description so it is not exactly misleading but maybe confusing.

I would have their bonuses restored and perhaps a set limit on equippable skill items/skill. My house rule is only 1…[Read more]

Mr. Knight,

makes sense ofc. What I never understood is why player cannot meet other heroes outside taverns and interact with them. They have lives(eternal?) in the background, gain lvls, change ships, join factions. Would having them visible and interactive in the whole game world put too much stress on the engine or take too much time for the…[Read more]

Mr. Knight,

I agree with you abt. ship stores(a parallel to warhorse export being a capital offense in many countries) though I would make an exception for foodstuffs and medicine.

Returning to DLC development how are pirate battles to be? As special quests or random meetings with your competitors/enemies which I would like better?

Mr. Knight,

I think you are right abt. a huge yet untapped potential in Maelstrom engine. Some things I suppose could be done with very little effort, except maybe for time needed. I think CONSISTENCY and realism, again. I`ve been ranting abt. that regularly.

Yet more examples:

– the officer icons top left do not conform with their full scale…[Read more]

BIG THX to you dear devs for your dedication. I have a few cats in need of skinning as per above and will try to leave them at that for now.

Come to think of it, why not post both on TW and here?

Hi,

I looked at your notes and cannot see where player ship and its data are located. To be clear what I want is to change data for ship given to player at start of a playthrough.

The code to paste for officers to follow, where paste it? For every possible location separately?

Mr. Jeffrey,

THX for checking this but if triangle sails can be reduced on French Armed Tartane is this a special design feature for this lateen rigged ship only? It has two masts and furls one of them. The Negoce also has two masts and does not.

And was this so even earlier in the game as I seem to remember that at one time all ships could…[Read more]

Hi all,

a while ago I asked how to change performance of players specific ship. Just that individual ship.

I also got an answer but… I cannot find it here anymore… I wanted to start tweaking this now and would very much appreciate advice on changing speed, manouver and point of sail for player ship.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Agree with that.

Mr. Jeffrey,

thing is that battle sails worked on the ships in question earlier but after latest or maybe second latest update stopped working. Would a save be of any help?

Rgds, Oldtimer

Mr. Jeffrey,

IMO there is no worthwile visual improvement if using AA. If it is the sole culprit could disabling AA in DirectX(unless I misunderstood earlier post) solve the graphical glitches some of us experience?

BTW, is the problem with some ships not being able to set battle sail also one you cannot reproduce?

Rgds, Oldtimer

Mr. Jeffrey,

I have had this problem on an old AMD card and a brand new integrated INTEL graphic chipset so it seems not attributable to only one hardware setup.
Anyway, I quite understand your problem and time limitations. What annoys me is that it affects one of my fav ships. I do not play to beat the game, looking good while playing is much…[Read more]

YES, I have reported similar graphical glitch quite a while ago without getting any reaction from the devs. “Good” to see I do not imagine things. Turning off antialiasing solved it for me except for the hebek.

Rgds, Oldtimer

Changed “blade29” as per above and it works.

THX, Oldtimer

Mr. Jeffrey,

THX awfully for your PROMPT attn.

Rgds, Oldtimer

After installing the latest update the game crashes when I close the ship chest after putting items there.

Rgds, Oldtimer

This…

Mr. Jeffrey,

several blades become available at lvl 6 not only “blade29”. Which value should I change to make only that blade to appear at lvl 1, irand or?
