    What do you guys know about the interface files?

    I am looking to gather as much information I can about how exactly the interface INI files work. I have a basic understanding of them - enough to make significant modifications manually though mostly through trial and error. Is there any documentation whatsoever available on it? Stuff like...

    [REL] Show Officer's Position mod

    I have a new mod today to resolve one annoyance I had in the interface: When assigning a ship captain and I scroll through my officers I did not know what position those officers held. This mod shows you the officer's position under their name to remove any confusion. See attached screenshot...

    Is 'Sail Away' command broken?

    Is it just me or is the Sail Away command to companions broken? I issue this order to my cargo ships so they would avoid confrontation and just hopefully head in the opposite direction of the enemy. But I find this order to be primarily ineffective. I think it has something to do with range. I...

    [REL] No Crew Limit Capture mod

    I have released my first little MOD: No Crew Limit Capture mod: This mod removes the check on crew size when capturing a ship. Once you gain victory over an enemy captain during boarding and get to the 'Robbery' screen you are given the option to capture the ship (setting one of your...

    Savegame screenshots

    What's up with the savegame screen shots? Sometimes they work other times it's just an empty background. Is there a fix for this?

    I need a "Load Cannon With..." Command.

    Target keeps blowing himself up

    I'm trying to take down the Schooner "Shooter" in a quest to get vengeance for a woman, but everytime I get close to this thing they just blow themselves up! "Schooner 'Shooter' exploded the powder room." How do I get around this? The only way I can board the ship is when he has the advantage...

    Gaining Abilities

    How does the ability system in COAS work? In the manual, page 13, it says: "When you achieve a certain Skill level, you are also awarded Ability points (personal and ship related) and these allow you to add special Abilities to your character" but then on page 17: "Reaching a Rank and Skills...

    Did I misunderstand how licenses work?

    I took on a quest from a Spanish governor which asked me to go into Port of Spain and meet a certain contact, pick up a package of documents, and bring it back to him. I figured this would be easy because despite England being hostile i have a license which I just got which says I can freely...

    Arr, this game has me beat!

    I've been trying to get into the game but I'm finding it very difficult. Mainly the swordplay is frustrating me. I just started the game and I chose difficulty "Captain" since it says that's the 'Normal' level. Would it be a significant difference dropping it a few levels? I had no problem at...
