    Build 14 Completion

    Or we could ask them for replacements :blah: I'm sure we'd get over the loss if we had some replicas from the (VERY talented) ship modellers we have hanging around the forum :) So what exactly is the problem with the walkfiles? Can't most players live without crew on some ships decks and/or...

    Build 14 Beta 1

    Hmm, I've just been looking through this thread out of interest, and was confused by some people claiming that ENB performs well, because last time i tried to install POTC i first tried with the graphical enhancement but it crippled the game to probably less than 1 FPS. I might have installed...

    La Creole

    well i suppose the more colour schemes the merrier :D. Lovely ship here, it's nice to see more of this size of ship, as we seem to have lots of frigates and unrated ships but far too few of these "post ships". Obviously it's nice to see some more french ships to sink or capture ;)

    Ship Classification System

    I personally think both ideas are good, but the historical classification makes more sense to me - the only difference between a high level frigate and a low level frigate should be price, you shouldnt require players to reach high levels to use them. In an ideal world, there should really be...

    Build 14 Beta 1

    dammit, i was wrong. Finally got a day off from revision and coursework, and i realise i've got Alpha 8, not 9. Looking back at my past topic about this, apparently there isnt an alpha 9 light. I have most of the installers i used that time, so will: - Install Alpha 9 ontop of Alpha 8 - Alpha...

    Build 14 Beta 1

    dunno if this is the right topic, but once AGAIN, i'm returning to POTC. I'm not reliable, but at least i always come back. Basically, i have a couple questions before i download this (huge) mod on my limited broadband. Firstly, should Beta 1 install fine over Alpha 9? My cd broke, so i'm stuck...

    The Black Pearl 3.0

    That would definately be useful, if it was added to the mod. I don't use directsail partly because I refuse to fight at night. Argue that it's realistic all you want, I disagree at the moment. In RL you would be able to see a ship from quite a way away (I imagine) because they'd have lights. Not...

    Kraken Tentacles and Plane of Sand

    Could you put a feature similar to the firedrill in, where you lose control of the ship because all hands are focused on fighting off the tentacles. I think it should be added to the advanced options menu, with 3 settings - never randomly encounter it, only in storylines before Jack Sparrow, and...

    Willemstad Builders' Trials

    Hi, great idea here, this looks like it'll make the game much more interesting, and hopefully make the game look nicer (I always want the sailing in this game to look more... dramatic :) ) How will frigates and Man'o'Wars sail now? Will they change much? Also, a question about playing the...

    corrupted cd

    ok, it's installed, and I'll try playing it when I get back from work. The config file isn't working, saying I'm missing engine.ini or options file. I definately have engine.ini, so?

    corrupted cd

    Ah. Crap. they're from alpha 9.5, and I have already installed the patch. Does this mean I need to start all over again?

    corrupted cd

    I installed to the game's root folder...

    corrupted cd

    ok, after installing 9.5 patch 4, I have a "Pirates of the Caribbean" folder INSIDE my game folder. But it DID ovewrite other files... What's this?

    corrupted cd

    Ok, so after making a copy of the game, I started installing the mod. After installing alpha 9, I ran Runme.bat, but a lot of files failed - it couldn't find them. Is this ok? I'll carry on, since I have a backup, but I'm a bit worried whether it'll work.
