Thanks so much, Jeffrey! That really helps me out a lot. I’m starting to fiddle with the code a little, and I hope to get a bit of help from my cousin to try and understand it better – I have a dream of someday creating a few quests for the game, one of them even being an opening quest for Svendsen similar in concept to the one for Peter Blood. I…[Read more]

I believe I’ve noticed blue shrouds on the Fast Armed Merchant, the ship Vincent Svendsen starts with. I’ve also noticed blue textures on some of the hatch gratings of the Heavy Dutch Brigantine in a previous game. The latter was mentioned before, but wanted to say so again as a reminder just in case.

GHOSTMD, I think anything from Pirates of the Caribbean would be off-limits for the game itself, since the devs are going to be selling it for profit. That means that they would very likely need to acquire a license from Disney of they wanted to include those characters, something that would be horribly expensive and probably not really worth it.…[Read more]

Can I get someone to tell me where to go to adjust prices for goods and services like brothels? I personally find some of them very high for my liking, and would like to see about adjusting them to be more in line with my own expectations.

I had the version where the constrain heroes option was in the mod options menu, so I’ll update my files and see if that helps. When I do that, is there a way to keep my current game (which I started with heroes constrained), or will I have to start over? Would be a bit of a bummer to start over considering I’ve finally gotten farther than I have…[Read more]

I would definitely like to see this feature make it into future versions of the game. Harbor battles are really cool!

As for what MK1 said he originally wanted for harbors in his post, I’d also like to see ships coming and going from harbors as well. I’d especially like to see small working boats moving around a harbor (and elsewhere around the…[Read more]

Thanks for the quick response, Jeffrey!

I did actually start a new game when I saw that option, but it doesn’t seem to work still. I turned it on in the default options at the start menu, but the choices I made didn’t carry over to my game for some reason and I had to select them all over again as soon as I hit land after the intro scene.

That would be a really amazing feature to have added! I would definitely prefer to have combat music playing during the fight, and it’d be really cool for one to start while you’re on shore so that you can watch it happen from the docks! Amazing!

Been forever since I looked on here, and my planned ‘first look/unboxing’ video fell through – and being so busy with life, I haven’t had a chance to upload (or even film) any new videos. That, and I’m eagerly waiting for the release of the HBS BATTLETECH game this coming April – I finally get to play it after helping to kickstart it a few years…[Read more]

Very happy to hear of your success, MK. Enjoy the trip!

I think it was just a joke, Maltacus, no need to get all edgy about it. But I do agree with you that the situation needs some tweaks for those of us who like to roleplay – my loyal officers are not going to sit by and let me get robbed (at least I hope so…). I think a good compromise may be to make it so that you never get robbed (or have a…[Read more]

Love the AI improvements you’re working on! I’ve never sailed with a fleet before, mostly because I’m kind of a solo guy – that, and I don’t want to pay for repairs and whatnot for more than a single ship (my current tier 5 vessel is a good one, but I still have to work pretty damn hard to pay upkeep every month!). However, this is a major…[Read more]

Nice addition to the lineup, always nice to see more female pirates added to the game.

Love the news coming out! Great to see how much progress is being made behind the scenes!

Wanted to point out that when I first met Nicholas van Hoorn, he introduced his ship as a “468gun fourth-rater”.

Also, the English fast merchant (used by my character Vincent Svendsen as his starting ship) seems not to have any animated crewmen while other ships do – any reason for that?

No other problems for me so far…

Would like to have my own Colony,small navy,run my own island and economy..Choose my soilders uniforms…I want Jamaica all to myself “I say they do” Public hangings at my discretion and be able to go see the event,and be able to change my clothes have a nice wig like modyford etc..

You can actually take a colony for yourself already – take a look…[Read more]

Just thought of it, but could we PLEASE have a way to sort the import/export lists in the trade window? It seems like they’re currently listed in the order you first visited them, and that can make finding the trade list you want very tedious. I’d like to be able to arrange them in ascending or descending order by name and faction, please. At the…[Read more]
