A question about the Build mod

[badthechadass]

I haven't played this game since it released on Xbox, but I just ordered it for PC from Amazon after coming across this place. It sounds like a pretty amazing experience with the Build mod.

I'll get to the question, with the mod, is it possible to sail from one island to the next in 3d mode with the same chance of encounters with ships, storms, and various weather changes? If it's not in the mod, is it something that can be done or is it just not possible?

Thanks alot guys, I can't wait for the game to come in.

P.S. I haven't been posting long enough to develop the Pirate dialect (it takes time)

The DirectSail mod in Build 14 Alpha 6 is what you want. Storms aren't implemented yet, but ship encounters and island-to-island sail are. Along with some surprises. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Awesome. Where can I find some screenshots of this game after the build?

i have some, but there's not that much of a graphical difference in comparison to the original game. mainly, the graphical changes include new ships, new ship skins, GREATLY improved cannon graphics (which i posted somewhere else), more shine-effects (although minor), better waves, more diverse weather, and some new towns. (one re-decorated, and one or two from age of pirates)
