    POTC:NH on an emulator.

    I've been trying to get POTC to work on a windows emulator, Wine, but I keep getting runtime errors when I activate the engine. Has anyone here tried something similar or been able to get POTC to run on a non-windows machine? As of right now I am assuming it is impossible but I was hoping...

    Some questions, possible problems, suggestions.

    Hmm okay. When I go home again i'll see if the cheatmode value is at 1. Sometimes I switch it on because of how extraordinarily terrible I am at sword fighting.

    Some questions, possible problems, suggestions.

    Over Thanksgiving I was able to go home and try out patch 7, and I saw lots of improvements. My game is much more stable now too. Anyways, a problem I saw was that when I went to repaint my ship, every ship in the entire game was listed as a repaint option. So, I could by a Barque Longue and...

    Music Pack Idea

    I would love such a thing, The Mission is my favorite film. This music would bring a more solemn historical feel rather than the adventuring feel of the current music. Master & Commander has a few folk songs that could be used too.

    Blaze Devlin, Superstar athlete

    Me too. The Blaze model just bothers me, mostly because of how it's animated. Luckily he starts in villa de vega and there is a very easy to find tailor shop there.

    More accurate ranks and new uniforms

    Well they're just ones I made for fun a while ago, I didn't really concentrate on perfecting the names and I agree some are not that good. (If it was up to me I would only have about 8 ranks, because there is no way the First Lord of the Admiralty would be sailing around the Caribbean getting...

    More accurate ranks and new uniforms

    I'm not sure if you even can advance in pirate ranks, as I've never tried, but I changed the ranks a while ago for fun when I changed the American and Dutch ones. Unknown Freebooter --> Dishonest Sailor Unknown Pirate --> Rumrunner Freebooter --> Freebooter Cutthroat --> Smuggler Promising...

    Suggestion for Nathaniel's ship name.

    It's called "Sea Horse" because the ship model has a sea horse figurehead. You can rename it anyways. If we called it Bird of Prey I would have to rename Nathaniel "Romulan Commander" or something like that, even though I understand why you think Bird of Prey is appropriate due to Nathaniel's...

    An idea about ranks.

    I understand the issues, and I see how captains in the game are really free traders. But then the military is much more privateerish. Despite naval ranks ship hunting is for the captains own benefit from taking the prize, and does not come from orders. I can see how it could become a dead end...

    An idea about ranks.

    I'm not a modder for this game, so I don't know if this would work at all or simply be too difficult, but here's the idea: We now have military ranks for the navies of all the nations (not sure about pirate though). As our relations with a nation rise, we get a better naval rank and access to...

    An alternate story of Bartolemeu that occured

    Yep. Few games allow freedom, and this one allows almost complete freedom, the only restrictions are the boundaries of realism. And who wants to have unrealistic sailing anyways? I recently found out about this game, before I found build mod I figured there were no realistic sailing games, and...

    An alternate story of Bartolemeu that occured

    I had a great success in my first POTC game ever: I played as Jack Sparrow but managed to break the quest somehow (I'm good at doing that apparently, I believe it was due to a bad save that time) and so with no way to follow the story I joined the royal navy : Meet Rear Admiral Jack Sparrow...

    An alternate story of Bartolemeu that occured

    I tried this story, but it didn't end well for poor Bartolemeu and I encountered much misfortune on the way. I got to Martinque and traded the sandal for the silk, but on my way back I got caught in a storm and some silk fell overboard. The storm (as well as the fact that the rum fell overboard...

    Steam Frigates

    Well my computers from 2002 about, was cheap then, and has died and been repaired by me several times (And I have no idea what i'm doing when it comes to electronics) so my specs are probably not good. I tested a bit more, and I believe the low frame rate is not caused by the ships but rather...

    Steam Frigates

    Well I made it back to vanderdecken, and tried out the frigate,and the guns do work this time. Not sure what happened. There was ammo and powder before, I checked before I made the op. However sailing the dauntless/endeavor or the steam frigate seem to seriously lower my frame rate, but that...

    Steam Frigates

    14.6 I would go back and check it again, but that whole save got an unbearably bad frame rate and I can't go back to it. I tried to get a frigate again and test it out again to see if it was just some weird thing, unfortunately I can't find Mr. Vanderdrecken again.

    Steam Frigates

    The guns on the steam frigate (Royal Navy version) do not fire. They make the usual yelling noise when I give the order to attack, but no shot sounds or cannonballs appear, despite guns being installed, a full crew, and a very experienced captain. This was on Jack Aubrey's quest line. Needless...
