    Solved Build 14 Beta 3: What's the Verdict?

    The installation process is much better. One sugestion to help those that are having a hard time figuring it out. In the directions, tell people to make a new folder called "New Horizons" and place the install files within. Just telling them what to name the folder I think helps. I never had...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Hiring officers seem more difficult (Standard Story). When I do find an officer he is usually way higher level, and cost than I am looking for. The ship repairs pretty speedily even without any Planks or Sailcloth. Should be some limit. DirectSail Encounters are all better. No more "0 Cwt...

    Sailing the Heavy Lugger in the default storyline, no cheats.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    No it doesn't get added to my cargo either. On another note, I noticed that my ship gets repaired rather quickly even when I have no Planks or Sails.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I am still getting "0 Cwt of (whatever item)" when I pick stuff up from random encounter "There's something floating in the water..." I think I noticed this start when compass directions were added instead of the "off the port bow". Is anyone else experiencing this? If I pick up anything from...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    As far as Beta 3 Full Test, I did use all three files to install from their own directory, using the installer. That worked great. I liked how it prompted to edit the engine.ini at the end.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Just tried again withou renaming the Profile. Same result WIP 17 Fix2? Yes. My Quicksaves were taking a "new" slot each time I would make a new Quicksave. Prior to WIP 17 (maybe WIP12, as well.) Quicksaves would take the same slot as the previous Quicksave.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I installed Beta 3 full Test. Started default Story Line under Pofile "Pirate". Chose 3rd option in openning dialouge with Malcom for random start. Did a F1 to Save and it showed Profile "Player". Tried Quicksave, it failed saying there was no existing profile. I have a question. What is...

    DirectSail Issue

    No. When I have a a near full cargo it informs me that "No room cannot load..." something like that.

    DirectSail Issue

    When getting "Something in the Water..." and I go to retrieve whatever is floating I get the messsage "0 cwt (item) loaded" Using 14 Beta 2.5 Nathaniel Hawk Storyline Happens even when boat is near empty.

    Poll What of brothels?

    Enable all the time. Brothels are no big deal. They are reffered to in history class, reffered to in every western movie. The key is to not put anything gratuitious in them. You need not refer to their 'daily' purpose whatsoever. There really is no need to be prudish, just don't be...

    Check the Rigging

    It's more than that. In my experience, when I haven't played in awhile, the first time I get back to it, I forget to Save. And lo and behold, often, after 2 days at sea without saving (sometimes longer, often at 'Land Ho!', sometimes sooner), CTD. Then I load it up and go through my "Check...

    Check the Rigging

    The current "World Map" of the Caribbean would be considered a 'Theatre'. Used like Iraq and Aghanistan are different 'theatres'. I envision creating a "North Sea", "Mediterranean", "Ivory Coast", "Indian Ocean", North American East Coast", and "South Pacific" theatres. Transfer from one...

    Check the Rigging

    Thank you. You are right. This is precisely what I am looking for, at least in the right direction. I don't know why I didn't open it before. I guess I thought it was a tutorial on how to play the game.

    Check the Rigging

    Once again, what skill set is needed, ie..would it help to go buy a book on Visual C++ or something. If I have no idea what language this is in, how can I begin to understand it. Surely there must be some kind of documentation that oulines how everything works. I'm starting from scratch here...
