    My small mod plan - need info.

    Yes, good ideas galeninjapan. It would also be nice to ransom off captured captains and dignitaries. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

    What do we need in a mod?

    Yes you are right that there are historical inaccuracies present, including TONS of ships, and pirates who didn't live at certain times. But those are just fluff added to flesh out the mood of the game. But NO PREY NO PAY is sort of like the pirates' first amendment. You simply CANNOT pirate...

    Enemy ships not damaging me!

    I dunno they damage me all the time. With chain, round and grape. You sure he was hitting you?

    Captain's Log, Stardate...oops

    Probably a waste of money like most Strat Guides. Just an expanded manual, really.

    How to mod?

    I tried a few FPK unpackers I found thru Google and they were so damn cryptic that I couldn't figure them out....most were DOS. Keith I'll shoot you an FPK file over the pond.

    Sword Fights Broken?

    Yeah, even with a 1.8 Gig CPU and 768 Megs Ram, the swordfights are still choppy with the object detail turned up. If I know I'm going into an important fight, I'll pause and turn down the detail so I can perform better. I also remapped the keys to make it easier to respond quickly.

    What do we need in a mod?

    Yep, thank Akella for dropping a fat Cleveland Steamer on all that we purists hold dear. Luckily Sid Meier showed up with a pooper scooper and some books. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0"...

    What do we need in a mod?

    Oh my god you have to be kidding, right? TELL ME you are kidding. THE #1 cardinal rule...the very defining principle....the very CORE of privateering and piracy itself is....NO PREY NO PAY. A regular salary was unheard of and has NO PLACE in a pirate game! <img...

    Can the Characters speak English? How?

    Yes that's correct. It's just an illusion of language to enhance the mood.

    errr... How do you purchase new ships?

    It's really just the base equation of piracy. The less crewmen you have, the larger share each man gets. In Cutthroats I used to have a crew of several hundred, which I used to amass a fortune in gold. Then when I was ready to divide I would just ditch the extra ships of men. Granted it made my...

    Can the Characters speak English? How?

    The people don't actually speak words, but rather undefinable speech that is suggestive of their native language. It's quite ingenious really.

    Click on it.

    What do we need in a mod?

    BECAUSE the whole point of the aging process is to keep you on you toes, to try and attain as much as you can before growing too old to compete. It's one of the things that makes Pirates unique! Anyone who mods this out is missing the point of the game entirely.

    Hello out there?!

    I leave this board for 12 hours, expecting that surely upon returning I'll find some other aspiring modders with some new info and....NOTHING! Sheesh! C'mon gang, we have to find a way to crack this nut!

    wind is...broken?

    Uhh....that's called the Tradewinds, which always blow west in the Caribbean....I tip my hat to Sid and the gang for keeping it accurate! In real life it's quick and easy to sail NW from say, Barbados to Jamaica, but very arduous and long to sail the other way round. It's not annoying....it's...
