I must confess that I find texturing harder than modeling. I spent 3 days trying to understand the best way to texture my cabin, doing and redoing things several times without concluding almost anything.

I still have troubles figuring out the proper texture resolution to use and how to arrange them in files: the developers often used a single…[Read more]

Yes, I arrived to that too during my experiments, and realized it’s probably not the way it has been done.

Comparing the ini interface files between ERAS and SDTEHO reveals they are basically the same, just minor changes that don’t involve the position of the major elements in the screen.

And using this method would mean to change ALL the…[Read more]

I have recently taken an interest in 3D modeling, and spent the last couple of months studying it. Then I decided to start a project with the intent of adding new ships interiors, since I believe the game is really poor on this aspect: so many beautiful ships, yet always the same 2/3 interiors!

My goal is primarily to add new cabins, but in my…[Read more]

Nice one Jeffrey!

Since you’re dealing with the dlls, I was wondering: is there any chance to get the interface widescreen? I mean the interface you get access to when you click F2, and the options screen, not what you see when you play.

I don’t know if this is understandable, but take a look at this screenshot from SDTEHO, where they solved thi…[Read more]

I restarted the game, only to stop playing again after a while, specifically after leaving the first island.

From my point of view, the problem is not the difficulty, rather the way you are “forced” to play: I experienced no freedom in my gameplay, you have to play exactly as the developers intended, and if you don’t, you can even break the game…[Read more]

Thank you, Jeffrey, you are doing an outstanding job fixing all these bugs!

This is the new correct path file for Flint’s ship, the Walrus: Download
It has to be copied in RESOURCEMODELSShipsTheBlackPearl1 overwriting the existing one.
It may be necessary to moor and then go back to the ship to have the path file correctly update.

Thanks for this patch, Jeffrey! I see it as a “preview” of the mega patch MK is working on.

About his words, I have never tried other mods except for GoF, so sometimes I don’t fully understand what he means when he talks about other people doing better and similar.
What do other mods have more than ERAS? New gameplay features? New ships (but we…[Read more]

You are right. The current path file seems somehow corrupted, I only see one polygon.
I will make a new one soon.

I’ve stopped playing after a series of crashes happening always in the same point, at the beginning of the game.

Will probably restart in the next days, but reading all the discussions on its Steam page confirms what you said. I’m not expecting much now, just hope it won’t get so frustrating to force me to quit permanently.

Please Modernknight release this megapatch!!
I tried Sea Dogs To Each His Own, but I’m stuck in the early stages of the game as it keeps crashing and prevents me to continue playing.
So I want to start a new game in ERAS2, but if I start now I’ll have to restart everything after the patch comes out!

How is it? Is it worth buying?

I post this here because I don’t know where else to post it…

I wonder if it is possible to have better flags on the ships: I’ve noticed that some of the flags are really indiscernible, the texture looks so stretched that it’s impossible to discern the drawing in it.

This screenshot explains what I mean:

Is there something that can be done?…[Read more]

I guess you are referring to the Centurion1 ship. Here is the sailorpoints file I made: Centurion1.ini
I haven’t noticed any glitch or performance issue with this file… check if it works for you.

Ok, here it is. It’s the Galeon_h211, to test it start a new game with Laurens de Graaf.
The correct path file: Galen_h211_path.gm

No, I just made it from scratch. I couldn’t stand the sailors flying and going through walls 😀

I’ve also found a ship with a wrong path for the first person camera, so you can actually “walk” outside of the ship.
I’m trying to create a new correct path and import it in game, I will post it here if I will be successful.
