    New Models!

    S0rry missed the link on page two. I mostly played it online and, as far as i remember, only plain sea map where avalible there.

    New Models!

    A TF-converter (SEA DOGS TF CONVERTER By Orzel) actually already exists. which works for AOS2 and should work for AOS-PB. I don't know if you can still download it somewhere. There even was a viewer for CFF-Files by the same guy. And i said too late, as i would have loved to see some more mods...

    New Models!

    Nice Pictures, played AOS 2 and AOS: PB myself back in the days. It's most fun online with others at Sea Lords Virtual Feets. Too bad you are a little late with the modding, but looks good. Did some some modding work myself with Empire Total War (Changed the Shiptextures), so i know how much...

    Seventy-Four

    I doubt you can show tactics and strategy, if sailing and shooting is that unrealistic as Seabro told us. Mayor tactics in the Age of Sail, where raking the enermy and trying to get the luff-side, as this is the best position for an attack. You might mod the turn rate, but i doubt you will be...

    AOP Question

    If i read all information about SF correctly, the newer Versions are the main Problem. I don't want to have a backdoor for viruses open on my system! Ididn't use my pc just for gaming and it would be horroble to loose all data on it, even if i would back up anything regulary, it would be a pain...

    AOP Question

    The pain with copyprotection like Starfoce is, that it punishes those who buy the game! There is no Copyprotection, that really helps against Piracy. I'm sure there will be copies to download without Starforce in the net shortly after release.... But those of us, who want to buy the game will...

    Seventy-Four

    You are properly right for the original game in SP-RPG-Mode, evil, but mayby mods will change this and MP is a totally different story. AOS also didn't allowed to give commands to AI ships and after sometimes it is no problem to sunk you enermies during the SP-Campaigns. a really dumb AI for...

    Seventy-Four

    Mayby also a job for modding. making such things as turnrate and hitpoints realistic. A 74-gunner would normally sink your small 36 gun frigs, as they have a weaker hull and not more than 18pounders on board. just the american 44's and the british razees could stand against them. The turnrate...

    Ships of Age of Pirates (WIP)

    So everyone has his preferances. Some like to sail a Spanish Galleon or Dutch Flute other a 74 or 120 Gun Ship of the line. Those big Napoleonic ships will only make sense for MP-Battles with 8 or more Players. So something completly different from SP-RPG where you will have just one ship...

    Recruiting!

    You might be right seabro, but this group keep going smaller during the last month as AOS is quite old and new game are comming up. Many concentrate on PotBS and there is a british AOP-Fleet hunting or members..... We think about future projects at SL and test some possibilities to integrate...

    Recruiting!

    S! Generally a nice idea to build up a navy for playing AoP, but for real fun you will need more than one to organise events and such things. We at <u><a href="http://www.Sealordsvf.org" target="_blank">Sealords Virtual Fleets</a></u> think about joining AOP, but will wait with the decision...

    Akella Sells Out

    I talked about the engine in combination with the question,why you as a community of modders don't try to make your own game instead of just modding other games. The Torque-Engine (<a href="http://www.garagegames.com" target="_blank">www.garagegames.com</a>) me and Keith talked about would...

    Point of interest

    As much as i know, you will control the ship during battles, not the sailors and there will be no fencing at boarding like you have at land. So build in control of single persons aboard the ship might be impossible, if you don't want to rewrite the whole game....

    Akella Sells Out

    The major problem for me is, that games in the Age of Sail are quite rare on the market. PotbS and the new PotC will be MMORPG's and you will have to pay monthly for gaming. Next to this you will be bound to rules of the def's. I will try PotbS, but who knows, if it will be good or not? Most...

    Akella Sells Out

    I also agree with Fred Bob. Flaming Akella or personally harm Alex doesn't help us. It will just end up, that they will ignore this forum and we don't get any more informations. On the other hand i can understand the frustration of Seabro and others. It won't be a prob, if this would be the...
