Sail Ho! Chicken Bonez....

First and before all, Happy new Year for all of you!!!
May lot of good things happens to you!

1) I want to know if someone have a text file with all modification possible made into the files of Age of Pirates - Carribean Tales?! I want to modify some parameter like changing the speed of travel on the sea map and time elapsing when on this map mode, number of hit point gained by character and officers, changing the name of the character. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

2) It's possible to modify files when you ever start playing and applying the change for your current game or for your saved character? If yes, how can i made this?! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" />


Some damned me, if i don't have any answer... Don't let on this island with my gun and one bullet! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

Thanks for all of you...

No way yet to use mods on saved games...after you mod you need to start a new game to get the effect


I have stopped messing with the mods till playlogic stops screwing around with the patches..making me waste my time.

Until then you should examine the files. until you find what you need.

I started looking but they really screwed me by doing that 1.5 the way they did.

I modded the crap out of the game but can onlt use my work with 1.43.

I am not happy with that.

If you've not modded the game yet then patch to 1.5. Then...

LET YOUR IMAGINATION RUN WILD!!!

Modding games is really as simple as that. You need tools if you want to do modelling but text files are really about using common sense to find where you need to change things (eg you said about your name, well, that would be to do with your character so check the character folder. This is a property that is made at the beginning of the game so check the character_init file (init always means initial settings) here there should be names somewhere like "Blaze" (warning dont change the ID as this will screw up everything))

The other thing is if it crashes then check the system and error files in the game directory as that will tell you what files are wrong.

It is usually possible to get the desired effect for something if you keep trying and think of ways to bypass hardcoded stuff you can't change (for instance I can make ships that have motors on the back).

Happy modding
