Build 14 Alpha 9

There probably is, but I'm not sure how... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Lol :p . So, isn't there anyway to make them work during combat? It's so hard to dodge now :/
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Don't dodge, fire the pistols instead.

I didn't get the bug in Build 13 Final. Couldn't you compare the coding for the controls there?
 
I could, but there's a LOT that was changed and I don't have too much time. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
About sidesteps not working on fighting mode : in InternalSettings, change #define SIDESTEP_CHECK from 1 to 0 and it will work again.

I don't really understand how to solve the problem either.
Apparently in characters.c CheckLocationPosition() function isn't doing its job when you are in fighting mode. But I don't fully understand how this part is supposed to work anyway... when it comes to the SendMessages things...
 
That mod was an attempt by Maximus to prevent you from sidestepping through walls and such; didn't work though.
It did prevent you from sidestepping through characters and also when you're in fight mode apparently.
Pretty annoying, really; better turn it off by default in the next version. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

Thanks a lot, now I can finally kick some ass in swordfighting.
 
This is how an woman should look like : <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

BTW I have filled the Weaponslocker at this moment with 250 Cheap Armors, 15 Expensive Armors, 25 Fine Large Pistols set, some 30 Fine Scrapper pistols, 20 Fine Quad-barrel Pistols, 10 Dual barrel pistols, and swords from the top that can be sold, like Fine Duelling Sabres and German steel. Guess what ? My crew is like bulldozer .. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I have always had difficulties boarding, but now I took two battleships/70guns/ one by one in one fight...and they were on full crew...The funny thing is, my crew doesn't even fight any more. They fire the pistols and the enemy crew disappears...some 2-3 left to be killed by sword. Incredible ! I feel like I operate a ribault... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blah:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Congratulations, priatnia <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> You are not cheating, are you? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ninja" border="0" alt="ph34r.gif" />

Regard the missing captain on captured ships bug, it seems it will never be solved completely. Would it be possible to add a locator somewhere on the shipdecks, so you would always get to the ship looting menu - captain or not?
 
Done extracting alpha 9.

It's very laggy. Textures didn't load outside the townhall after speaking with Jack's father. And... Jack Sparrow looks like Artois Voysey.

Also, at sea, I only get a black screen with just the date showing. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Will it all be fixed after installing 9.5?
 
Yes, it can, but then you have to remove the PROGRAM folder first. Why would you want to though...? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Wait, I saw a thread on the second page with the same problem as I have. Someone said that I should delete Program and resources folders. Should I delete them?

That's what I said. I never cheat in this game. The Weaponslocker stuffed with first class weapons is the key, most of them the pistols and the armouries. Plus I didn't mention I got a German Nobility Solingen rapier...though it doesn't almost come to it lol.

p.s. I intend to buy some 640 Expensive armors for all the crew....Though I'll have to gather them long cause the most I found at a place was 14 and they are rare. lol

If you are just going to have Alpha 9 you will need to delete the entire Program folder and then also "Resource/INI" and "RESOURCE/MODEL/Locations/Decks" folders...
If you download 9.5 you can just install 9 without deleting anything and then install 9.5 and it will work
 
Priatnia, I dont think 640 sets of armor will be of any use lol <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> There are only like 17-25 locators for your boarding crew on the shipdeck, and they will use these slots to join you and fight the enemy.

But you´re sure doing well, and thx for your positive feedback. Happy looting <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

However, if you don't remove the PROGRAM folder, you'll run into LOTS AND LOTS of bad bugs. I think most storylines you can then not even start.
The reason for removing the other two folders too is solely to prevent useless files from remaining on your hard drive.

Thanks <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" /> Do you want to say that not more than 14 pistols and 14 fine sabres for the whole crew will be actually used ? I need to know the exact ammount, well comparatively to the medium type of ship perhaps !

And hey, great mod ! Certainly much better than what they show in the new Empire Total War game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> In fact it can't be better than it is now. I follow these mods from the beginning and am quite satisfied now what it is.
 
Peter Willemoes is very much correct; getting 640 sets of armor just won't have any effect. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Thanks for your kind words. Personally I'm NOT happy with the mods yet though; still a bunch of things that need fixing/finishing.
Still, what we already have is just really cool. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
hey guys, its me again <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

i realy like the real sailing mod, but it can be a problem when your in battle, especialy when you around nevis all the time (like me), it happens almost all the time that when i almost have cought up with a ship, i get starnsported to quadeloupe (dunno if i spelled it right but you know what i mean) and then the ship i was hunting isnt there anymore

do you guys think it is possible to turn it off for battle?
