    Cannot hit fort cannon (B14 Beta1)

    Playing the "New Horizons" campaign, all fort cannon must be destroyed before the option to land and take the colony appears in the Quick menu. However, some forts seem to have unreachable cannon. For example, my 3rd Class Man-o-War with the default 32-pound cannon was able to destroy every...

    Cannot hold enemy officers for ransom (Build 14 Beta 1)

    Following successful boarding of an enemy vessel, enemy officers cannot be captured. They can only be killed, hired, or released. In other words, the parley dialog no longer offers the "Enough, throw him in the brig" option. Consequently, the player can take the gold but must hire or release...

    B14 Beta crash on cargo transfer

    The cargo transfer screen with the animated background always crashes engine.exe. Entry points include: - "Transfer Cargo" option on Ship Capture menu - Ship-to-Ship Transfer By "animated background" I mean the movie of sailors loading and unloading cargo that appears in the background of the...

    B14 A10 - Main quest completely busted

    The quest first got stuck at Barbados, where I was unable to moor after escorting the Albion (Cap. Ewan). The lame workaround - sinking the Albion and murdering Ewan - is explained in this thread. After killing Ewan, tracking down Tobias, and escaping out of Speightstown with Tobias and the...

    Battleships, colony capture, and other questions

    I've played the stock AOP v1.5 quest to the point where the old pirate leader is dead (thank you GodMode) and I'm now expected to capture colonies. Well, my frigate is having a hard time taking down a fortress, especially given how easily a volley from a fortress can destroy my cannons. Can...

    Damski's FTP?

    In a <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=11939" target="_blank">different thread </a>, damski suggested that I check out his FTP but declined to tell me the URL and u/p. Searching for "damski ftp" fails because this forum doesn't allow search words of length < 4. The...

    Bug: Trapped on deck after successful boarding

    Clean installation of Build 13, followed by Build 14 Alpha 6 (not using Alpha 7 due to instability/crashes). It plays really well except for one particularly egregious issue. After boarding an enemy vessel and clearing a deck, it sometimes is impossible to transition to the next deck. That...

    Build 14 Capture Colonies mod

    This idea was previously brought up here: <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=7625&hl=capture%20colony&st=20" target="_blank">http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php...olony&st=20</a> First things first, though <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif"...

    Berengere bug in B14 A5

    Build14 Alpha5 was working well until the quest to escort and destroy the ammunition boat at Falaise d'Fleur. The tavern upstairs door to Berengere's room is locked. Any ideas why? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0"...

    Where to buy bombs?

    Didn't see this in the Build13 FAQ. I haven't found bombs at Oxbay, Greenford, or Redmond. I've just liberated Oxbay and received the "Kill Rheims" mission from Silehard, and I'd like to sack Falaise d'Fleur for the heck of it. Bombs would help. Last session, I reduced my fleet to one...

    Disabling shouting voice when cannons fire

    Does anyone know the name of the audio file containing the "OOOAAAAAPPPP!" voice that bellows out whenever you fire the cannons? It's sort of obnoxious and it completely overwhelms other audio. I'd like to replace it with the Windows OS "chimes.wav" or maybe a fart sound.

    Colony / Town Population and BuildingSet

    Build13 is excellent! It's amazingly more fun than Age of Pirates, and the best ~400MB I ever downloaded <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" /> Two quick questions. First, I was able to customize the...
