Thanks for sharing your screenshots! Looks like you’re having fun. Can’t wait to show off the new textures for the Ganji Sawai. Will be finished today.

It appears the emblems on the sails available from the special shipyards is not working right again. Will have to talk to Jeffrey about that. Was that what you selected for your brig or were you…[Read more]

OK so two things are happening on our piece of junk website. 1 we are getting spammed bad in this topic. Over 600 hidden replies offering PHd ghostwriting help. Getting ready to delete the whole thing and ban the posters.

2. The image toggle isn’t working. Just put the URL without pushing the IMG tab. They will show up. I un-hid your reply…[Read more]

I changed your site role to contributor to see if it made any difference but I can’t see any images attached to the message. Did you push the IMG toggle above the message and enter a link?

I originally wanted it not to appear in game. There are quite a number of ships that fall into that category – mainly the late 18th century frigates. They used to only appear in the rare Gentlemen of Luck (Now Bold Privateers) flotillas. Jeffrey and I had a discussion last year and decided to widen the filter number for what ships could be…[Read more]

Thanks for the kind words. I have been working on a GREAT DEAL of new content for the last two years that I haven’t yet shared. So there is a lot coming down the pipeline. Others have asked about donating as well. I procured a Patreon page but have not yet hung any content there – so I just need to finish it.

Just lately we seem to be getting…[Read more]

Interesting conversation. I had a discussion of this on one of our Youtube videos where I talk about dumping slaves at shores so they can escape. I go so far as to dump a little food as well for part of the immersion – getting into the role play. I believe I talk about this in the old features here in an article I wrote about “gamesmanship”.…[Read more]

Jeff and I will talk about it. We have been talking about some other mod option toggles as well – a couple that have been on our very long list for quite a while now.

Let me also just say that there are known historical examples of both pirate rivalries that turned violent as well as pirates that deliberately attacked and and killed other…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing those! They look awesome! Glad the skins could be inspirational. I have tried to get them better and more authentic as time goes on. The next major update (that I have been working on for over a year and a half) has several new ships and a bunch of new frigate skins.

Fantastic work! Very exciting! I will add this to the promotional video I am doing showcasing the Frying Pan.

We are planning to implement multiple stores in several of the larger colonies. Curacao and New Middleburg Surinam (which is not in the game yet) will each have a Portuguese store and trader that can give Portuguese missions. We will probably put one at Port Royal Jamaica and Cumana as well.

I am pretty sure that the only thing realistic ships effects is what ships are available for purchase at the shipyards. I will ask Jeffrey to make certain but I am 95 percent certain I am right.

I wonder however, if we could develop another mod option toggle called single encounters that would cause the randomizer that chooses ships for…[Read more]

Its in your ship GUI command tab that allows you to give commands to all of the ships in your squadron. So you can quick repair other ships than your own if your captain on that ship has the perk. There is light repair and quick repair. If you have them they will appear as a visual option left to right with others in the tab. For light repair it…[Read more]

That particular English Royal Navy blue squadron colors with the very small cross of Saint George canton appears in many paintings of actions between the English and Dutch in the 1660s through 70s. Here’s an example from the Battle of the Texel.

This has happened to me occasionally as well. It only happens when you kill the enemy captain with a fast combination and his body unintentionally opens for loot. (like one too many clicks that negate the walking to talk to the bride/groom). If you play through the battle again making sure not to click your mouse for any reason after the final…[Read more]

Some new screenshots from my successful run in with a Spanish Treasure fleet. I had three very large ships full of men and two middling sized ships with upgrades. I was leaving Portobello as part of a Governor’s quest when suddenly the treasure fleet emerged. There were 21 ships in the Flota this time. 37 is the most I’ve encountered in one and…[Read more]

Latest bug I ran into was that Edward England’s name changed to Kuriko Fraga after I rescued him from being captured by an enemy captain when I attacked a treasure fleet. His ship was sunk and he was captured. One of my many new ideas that Jeffrey was able to implement was allowing there to be a high percentage chance that your captains will be…[Read more]
