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…
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.
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.
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 stinking rich from shore loot/finds. Does not take much time either.
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 or BitChute may lead to a turnaround but nothing immediate I fear.
Taking up a work-career and keeping ERAS as a personal hobby could be something to consider.
In my darkest moments I suspect that Maelstrom/ERAS are TOO good to become popular.
Anyway, THX awfully for your and other devs dedication,
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.
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.
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.
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.
