    Need Help [HELP] How to recruit the playable Captains?

    MK, I will do that, as I still have a few quests to finish, or even start. I partially mispoke about name NPCs. I did actually find a few in some of the more obscure ports, but at this point no one approaches me anymore and they refuse any offer to join me for missions. They seem to be placed...

    Need Help [HELP] How to recruit the playable Captains?

    As a caveat to the future of this thread, the way that GoF handles recruiting named NPCs late in the game is interesting. Once you become a seasoned captain, named NPCs begin to "disappear" from the game. I do not know if this is intentional or not. At this point, I am level 40, and NO named...

    [HELP] How to get point of sail upgrade in GOF 1.1.1

    Yes, I saw this last night after I upgraded the version of the "Sea Wolf" I have under moor at Port Royale. I somewhat broke my bubble of virtual reality on the sailing model...... With a a wind speed of 13.5 nautical knots (or whatever the number really means), I was going like 18+ knots. That...

    Need Help [HELP] Enemy never surrenders

    This actually works quite well using the multiplication factor adjusting the loc_ai file. Even when you have say 3X crew, the current coding still seems to take into consideration the morale and training of the opposing crew. For example, if you have 350 sailors and the enemy ship has 50...

    Solved Edward Low

    You are at the right location, but taking the wrong action. Edward Low is in a building located near the Tavern. You were not supposed to attack anyone, just give him the black spot. By attacking Jackman with pistol and cutlass in the "governor" residence, you will just be killed, as he is...

    Widescreen?

    I have been playing COAS at 1920X1200 for months now. The engine.ini modification on the main folder works using my GeForce 360M card with native scaling at 16:10. Interface is stretching slightly on main menu but in game it is normal. No patch is required to run properly widescreen. I would...

    Complete Sailors Guide to Privateering Mod Release

    REINIT allows the MOD to work properly, but the save function still fails. I validated the functionality under a new game, and it works perfectly with Trade MOD 1.8 and Combined MOD 3.1.5. This MOD needs to be added to the Combined MOD 3.2 I still think the major problem is if you implement...

    COAS *in city*- Constant CTD BYPASS The ending and back to sea?

    I will upload the file in the next couple of days. I am currently in Afghanistan, so it makes things a bit more challenging...... :gday

    Complete Sailors Guide to Privateering Mod Release

    Follow on question. Is there any update to make this MOD backwards compatible with save games, COAS Combined Mod 3.1.5 and Trade Mod 1.8? It looks as the though the only way to implement this MOD is to start a new game.

    Complete Sailors Guide to Privateering Mod Release

    This is a two part answer. This is NOT backwards save game compatible (at least with COAS Combined Mod 3.1.5 and Trade Mod 1.8) The game will crash when trying to save the game with corrupt "bad saves". I confirmed this using JSGME 2.5.0 with temporary swap out of files. When I reviewed...

    restore save files

    You first have to recreate the profile using EXACTLY the same name and options that were selected at the beginning of the game. Then you can drop the saved games intot the save profile folder and then they will load. If anything is different (spelling of profile name, spacing, or game options)...

    I cant make the french questline

    My problem was similar. I completed the pirate quest line up to Steve Linney, and then stopped. I received a French Letter of Marque, but did not start the questline, and decided to tackle COAS instead. After completing COAS I went back to Tortuga. I still had the Letter of Marque, but the...

    COAS *in city*- Constant CTD BYPASS The ending and back to sea?

    All, I have found a final solution, after beating my head against the wall, as I never give up. The only way to avoid the permanent CTD is to FURTHER modify the reaction.function.c script file under the program/quests subsection. In essence, ALL storm functions must be disabled under the "big...

    COAS *in city*- Constant CTD BYPASS The ending and back to sea?

    All, BLUF: IS my only option due to STORM engine crashing to forget this COAS quest reload from a save before COAS to continue my game to complete a GG questline, or is there some way to TURN OFF the physical storm effects via editing, while you are already inside the city (not before you...

    Mod needed: a pocket or chest to keep maps apart

    First, move all maps to another character or inside a storage chest (such on the ship) Maps are still viewable via the "M" key as provided by the COAS 3.1.5 MOD

    NEW Pirate Music - Pirate Plunder for the Modders

    All, I wanted to make a contribution for the all the hard work of the mod authors to this site. On the POTC FTP, I uploaded a new volume of pirate shanties and songs, some which have been done before, but these have a bit more flair. While travelling towards the Caribbean a while back, I ran...

    Edit the options file in the main directory using wordpad. Look for your profile at the end of the file and change: startgameparam.playerprofile=JackWolfe startgameparam.playerprofile=JackWolfe startgameparam.mod_skill_enemy_rate=6 startgameparam.bhardcoregame=0...
