    Best Starting Strategy for Build Mod 13 Final?

    I should've clarified, I usually go with Dutch or French and then buy myself a second commission in the Portugese. This way I have a main career and Portugal is my "backup".

    Major breakthrough with Akella

    Well, I'm not a frequent poster or a contributor per-say, but I read alot of the topics, and if my opinion holds any water, I agree with Pieter about not losing any contributors. As for myself, I'd rather not switch over to a new game (unless they're willing to supply said new game for free...

    Best Starting Strategy for Build Mod 13 Final?

    I find a Portugese commission to be invaluable. Whenever you're in trouble (ship badly damaged/out of ammo/about to run out of food), you just run up the old Portugese flag and you get through. That's why whenever I have a bit of money, the first thing I do is buy myself into the Portugese navy...

    Beta 8 Discussion

    If you'd like to try the saved game file, you're welcome to. No matter what I do, the game freezes within 5 seconds of it being loaded, and after 3 seconds of being frozen, CTD's (timed it, and tested it doing various things, about 6 times). I haven't tried going out of the screen (ie, back to...

    Beta 8 Discussion

    I have a recurring CTD to report, using the new Beta 8. Usually, after I'm done a naval battle, head to the open sea screen, 9 times out of 10, the game will crash either right away, or as soon as the "You have this many days of food/rum left" text would appear. I thought originally it was due...

    Beta 8 Discussion

    Been trying out the new Beta 8, and I like it quite a bit. One thing I notice though, all the islands have buildings near the port, yet only some have the head of port/harbormaster house. Besides serving as a part of the plot quests, is there any purpose to them? Why not make it so that you can...

    My first impression from playing Build 13

    To give my experiences of playing the newest version of the Build Mod. It is truly amazing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cat" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> Some problems I've seen with it though. The sword breaking limit being 1000...

    My current modding work

    Speaking of repairing, is there any way to repair pistols like you do swords? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" />

    Modding Away Skeletons and Skeleton-Monkeys?

    Thanks for the disabling help, but I was wondering about the starting character. I read on the forum about how you should get a starting character screen where you can choose a character.....but I haven't ever gotten one of those. I'm using Build 12.1, so perhaps this character selection is a...

    I tried the latest update, with the small bugfix as well and had the same problem.

    Modding Away Skeletons and Skeleton-Monkeys?

    Thanks for the response, but can you tell me exactly what I have to do to get rid of them? I'm afraid I don't have much experience with modding this game.... Oh, and also, using the Build 12.1, is there anyway to change the skin/face of your starting character? Thanks again.

    Modding Away Skeletons and Skeleton-Monkeys?

    Well, I'm new to both the forums and to POTC, although I have played Sea Dogs, Cutthroats and the Pirates! series alot. I was just wondering if there was anyway to remove the random appearance of skeletons and skeleton-monkeys from the game? I've had a quick look around the forum and will...
