    Engine.exe has stopped working

    Just wanted to chime in with my own experience. Playing (again) on a new (for this game) computer running windows 7 64bit. Nvidia GTX 750 Ti. My issue sounded exactly like Farvi's post a few messages above. None of the changes he suggested worked for me, however. Changing the resolution to...

    Ship moored

    Port control will store a max of 3 ships in any one settlement, so either 1) you forgot to store your last officer and he sailed with you to COAS - in which case he and all he was carrying is gone - lost in the storm. or 2) you stored him at a different settlement before sailing - so try to...

    Need Help Questions about moneylender

    6% is the highest I've seen. And yes, you can lose it if the city is captured. The safest spots are the nation capitals - they can't be taken over, so for France - Tortuga is safe. (I don't use any mods, so if it's different for GOF, I know nothing.)

    Guide AoP:CoAS Map

    Nice job. :) I moved it to the top and replaced the original World Map with your version instead. Giving you the credit you deserve, of course!

    Guide Search for Sharp's Spy Quest

    Did some testing based on responses here and changed the guide a little. I added in the suggestions made by giocoso after I confirmed that it's not necessary to go to the brothel and trigger the entry for the other Sharp quest. Also it seems that the "Native" (painted face) doesn't always...

    [HELP] It's crashing!

    The nature of the issue you describe sure sounds to me like issues with the computer itself that may have caused corruption in the game files or your profile in the game. It may be that the chkdsk scans fixed the issue but didn't repair what's already corrupted in your profile. It could also...

    [HELP] It's crashing!

    Sounds like it could be corruption in your file system. I'd try opening up a command prompt and running chkdsk /f. Step by step: 1. if xp, click start, then run, then type cmd in the run box and click ok 1b. if vista or windows 7, click start, in the search box at the bottom type cmd, now use...

    Need Help [HELP] Enchanted City quest

    Well, the obvious question: what difficulty level are playing? I'm playing the easiest and I don't have the issues you describe. However, I also trained up my fighting skills early, which probably helps too. I recommend going (by land, from a shore where you can safely moor) to the fort of...

    Need Help [HELP] End of COAS quest

    I've done it twice now, the 1st time was pure hell, nothing seemed to work until I read a post that said to just not fight it. Basically, just keep your character pointed in the general direction of the diffindur and speed up the game and let it ride. Eventually you'll wind up close to the...

    Need Help [HELP] leadeship problem

    I'm sure someone can provide a better answer, but I can help somewhat with the loyalty. If your officers are regular sailor or on the hero side of that then their loyalty will go down every time you capture (or sink) a ship that surrenders when you board it. It will go up if you release the...

    Need Help [HELP] Best nation quest line?

    Which nation's quest line is the best one, and why? Does any one stand out as having the best rewards, particularly? Thanks!

    [HELP] Problem with Blue Bird Quest

    Note that the second mechant is at Puerto Principe - the pirate settlement on Cuba, not Port-au-Prince in Hispaniola. Perhaps that's the confusion?
