    remaining incognito?

    Besides changing flas while out to see to sneak into a port what are some of the ways you can not be recognized while in town? I was trying to play on a higher lelve than I usually play and people were recognizing me to fast so it was hard to smuggle goods. I didn't have that high of rep yet...

    I just started playing again after a long break and installed build 14 alpha 10 and started a new game as Nathaniel. I like just sailing around pirating so I figured this was the best way to go but the problem is it's hard to find places since they don't seem to be on the worl map until I...

    If you've installed Build 14 A7 DON'T change the interface to the new interface under the options menu. If you do you won't be able to get back into the options menu. It will crash every time you try. HOWEVER I found a fix for it. In the main POTC folder there is a file called options. Open...
