That’s pretty cool. I do like that you can see what I was trying to do from a graduated lethality thermometer standpoint. My driving factor was historical realism. The Davinci description on the one multi-firing pistol may seem far fetched but real sketches were found. The Graz pistol is real and I’ve seen it in person at the armory in Graz…[Read more]

I am all about including user contributed content as long as it looks correct for the ERA. I was going for a Captain Hook or Bartholomew Redd flavor with the screen. Sorry about the empty item block in the upper right. That is only an experiment I am working on in version 9 of the game….same test version with the new islands and new fighters.

Actually, Those screens look pretty good to me corresponding with time. The things that bother me that I have been working on is the glowing land mass at night when everything else is dark and the light decks with no shadow when everything else is dark. Hopefully the new sky boxes and substitute mask files I am working on will help this and spread…[Read more]

Great! No other responsibilities required. I take care of the spammers. There are a lot of them too. I have had a lot of outsiders want me to open up the site to adds as well but I really wanted to stay away from that. I don’t feel it would attract more people and would probably annoy some that are here already.

That’s awesome that your game is…[Read more]

Jeffrey,

Thanks!

I haven’t yet uploaded the sourcecode. Gonna try tonight. I got really sick the last couple days and have mostly been in bed sleeping. Would you mind if I gave you higher site status – moderator or keymaster? I would love for you to get all of the error reports I have been getting and would like to share them with you easier. I…[Read more]

I’m working on it. Its all in the weather files and skyboxes and their corresponding location mask and shadow files. The next patch will have more new skyboxes. Are you talking about how it is too light on ship decks sometimes? I am missing some files in that instance.

Thanks Blas!

Yeah I think a lot of people may be missing that they have to click to equip the letter of marque to make it work. I think I added that to the “read me” file.

On the large ships. This was meant to give you options. I do not know how to give the character a higher level at the beginning of the game. So I give you the ship that they would have had…[Read more]

John, Thanks for the report.

I PM’d you about exactly what to do to get the error loggers on. Please send me the files I asked for. Sometimes with enough reloads it will eventually work if it is a character problem because sometimes it will change out the bad character I think??? This game sometimes requires some patience. This is one reason I…[Read more]

Well with Star Wars its supposed to be LONG AGO. Indeed I have always found that interesting. I remember growing up hearing old guys talking about how we were technologically advanced before Noah’s Great Flood. I agree with you completely about human arrogance. Pride has always been the downfall of so many great civilizations and endeavors. It’s…[Read more]

Thanks Jeffrey,

I had already caught the Batavia2 description problem. I updated it in the patch with a description very close to the pirate corvair.

Darn it you are correct. That had been fixed but somehow during the plug in updates it must have gone bad again. I had noticed less people signing up again. I do go to see what users are pending…[Read more]

So I went and saw the new Star Wars movie “The Force Awakens” the other night. This movie has been getting rave reviews and was hyped up to the extreme. I thought for sure I was gonna love it – but I didn’t.

So to give you some background… I love Star Wars and most SciFi. I was not only into sailing ships growing up but space ships as well. I…[Read more]

Photos were received John and embedded them in your post. I gave you “contributor” status but it appears that doesn’t allow you to upload pics – only link to them. I simply uploaded yours to my Flickr page. Very pretty photos. That last one almost doesn’t look real but I’ve been many places just like that – where it doesn’t look real – almost like…[Read more]

Jeffrey, VERY COOL!!! I love the idea of Pirates able to get the Blue Bird quest as well. Let’s do it!

Also love the narrative of your experiences. Ah the difficulties of reputation and getting people to like you. SIGH…
