    Discussion A few questions

    Nah, I'm pretty sure it is using the dedicated card because I just tried running it with the intergrated and it crashes on loading in that case, and with integrated there's a noticeable mouse lag on the main menu but with dedicated it's completely fine

    Discussion A few questions

    It was indeed the problem, I fixed it by uninstalling Intel Fix and putting the RadeonSea.sha file back into MODULES\Techniques\Weather\Sea, I have both an intergrated and dedicated cards and I'm running the game on the dedicated one, silly me :D Thank you for the help :cheers

    I cut the file out of the folder and pasted it onto the desktop, however the sea color during the day and night remains unchanged, no error reports in the log this time Oh I also installed Intel fix thing but I run the game off a dedicated video card, could that be the problem

    And another thing I wanted to ask is how can I change the water to its dark blue color, when I installed the mod for the second time I got this very bright sea color for some reason

    Discussion A few questions

    Good question, I'm curious about that too. I'd assume that since in 4:3 the compass on the map would be perfectly round, you'd need to use the outstretched one in 16:9

    Discussion A few questions

    I don't know why I didn't think of that myself, what is the scale of the in-game map compared to the real world in Iron Man mode

    Discussion A few questions

    Ooh right I actually did free play on Sea Dog/Realism Mode and Hornblower on Swashbuckler/Iron Man, I assume the faster passage of time on higher difficulties is to have the player be more cautious with time management? :DDirect Sail was on at all times, I used the map at first but then decided...

    Discussion A few questions

    I'm no pirate sir! I'm only trying to keep my nation alive, a nation that was entirely built upon thievery, murder and cowardice but that was before. I'm curious about the passage of time in this mod, when I did Free Play, 1 minute in game was ~15 real life seconds but in the Horatio Hornblower...

    Discussion A few questions

    And if I leave all my money with a loanshark, will that prevent the crew from getting envious? I've also been wondering whether ships in this mod reach their top speed when they're exactly on the downwind or when the wind is somewhere on the rear quarter as was the case with square rigged ships...

    Discussion A few questions

    I signed articles with my crew but as soon as I did my 4 heavily undercrewed fleet ships got a boost in crew numbers to about 90% of their max capacity instead of dropping, is this a glitch? I saved just before I tried it and reloaded again later to check if it would happen again and it did I...

    Discussion A few questions

    I apologize if some of these have been answered elsewhere, I searched around for a bit but decided to just put up a thread in the end 1. What's the best way to improve my reputation with all the nations? I started out as a pirate and every nation hates my guts but I wish to improve that, all of...

    Need Help Graphical Problem

    Same here, I've always had that problem, like half of my screen flickering in either black or some other color and sometimes it's like a thin black line that comes and goes during encounters :shrug

    Need Help Naval Officer Rank question

    Very good, thanks for the quick fix :) Oh yes I wanted to ask where can I buy 4th-1st rate ships in this game, I've checked shipyards in Kingston, Btown etc but haven't seen any ships larger than a speedy brig

    Need Help Naval Officer Rank question

    Ahh alrighty then :D In that case my final question would be how/where would I redeem my next ship from now when I rank up?
