    [HELP] Game Difficulty

    This is something i've never truely managed to figre out. Happens automatically, but i don't know how fast. Catch is - you need enormous ammounts of planks/sailcloth. Btw: I didn't mean that you should repair at sea. Visit a drydock/shipjard, once you reach your destination and have your crates...

    Need Help [HELP] New player, having a hard time

    Yea, indeed it is different... or maby it's because of the massive hull(points) of the ships you have, once you reach 85 def. And the elite naval defens(c)e reads: "general damage down by 25%", so it's inconclusive. Can anyone confirm that the 3 "naval defense" perks are really part of the...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    Could you please elaborate: What's that "masts don't fall fix"? Can't find a file, or a "how to" manual and my sealevel game ist *extremely* unstable during battle. Way more crashes than with the combined mod. On a different note: * I've encountered several really strange tresures, containing...

    [HELP] Game Difficulty

    For the last 3 games i went up a notch for every new game. British skipper, Spanish captain, French admiral (sacrebleu!). The first things you notice ist, that it takes considerably longer to develope your skills (actually a good thing) and that it costs more at the end of the month (rather a...

    Need Help [HELP] New player, having a hard time

    @buho Ist it true, that the ship defense perks are part of the carpenter's job? I know, it's written in the description, but the good doctor ist the guy for defense, with a shield in hes station sign.. The perks would be equally distributed that way, but It's kinda hard to verify...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    [BUG] The "enormous losses against harmless enemies" issue seems to be related to specific ships. The ship you have at that point. My "De Zeven Provincien" has it, as does my "Soleil Royal". Although, whether it is a thing of the whole class, or just of the specific ship, i do not know. Both...

    [HELP] I cant go to enemy town with license

    My problem is a bit different... I'm a sodding Spaniard and the whole world seems to know that! I can pretend to be a Frenchie all i want, at the moment when it would matter, my flag is the one of Spain again. It just keeps changing back. What am i doing wrong?.

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    Nah, something's messed up there. The log reads: "Captain's dead ...you've sent him off this mortal coil without talking to him first, he doesn't know why he died, wich was the major demand of the customer ...so much for revenge" But there's no captain... and i thought the goal was to free a...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    [BUG] 1) The "Heavy Xebec" can load 26 cannons (~16lbs) ... at least it could, if it had enough cargo space... I guess this counts as bug, because as long as there's a gunport, there's room reserved for that gun behind it. 2) "The Captive Groom" quest: No captain on the ship in question, quest...

    [HELP] Good Captains

    I am looking for good captains (i'm usually sailing in a flotilla of 3 ships, so i need at least 2 officers worthy of the titel of captain) Now: What makes a good captain? Of course 10/100 in everything, but they don't really grow on trees now don't they... 1) Sure, One with more endurance has...

    Guide The tips thread

    *Naval combat* I've had a difficult battle with my 3 class 4 ships against 3 class 1/1/2 under french flag. Just as i saved the game after "optaining" one of the class1 vessels, one of my mates got boarded and his ass kicked. I couldn't transfer additional crewmembers to him, i couldn't get to...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    Yes indeed, the boarding balance is somewhat strange. Wether i lose 300 men on an empty vessel, or overwhelm a superior force like they haven't been there - I can't even grasp an edge of the math behind this... It's just so ... well, random. But it does seem to be related to the level you are...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    i'm having a rather strange problem... my men don't die (allthough they obiously want to). You might think "Now he's lost it", but now i play 3 levels above my last game (the one with the 300 lost men against an empty ship). Level's Captain now and i don't lose one single sailor in any boarding...

    Mod Release Gentelmen of Fortune! v1.2 Full Release Patch 1.0 FAQ/Bugs/Installing

    Well, first of all, thank you for this great mod. Now the bigger the shipps, the bigger the problems. Several frigate types (including the standard frigate) don't seem to have clipping for the body. Allmost impossible to damage/sink. Damaging the dails works thou. I've got me a dutch Soleil...

    Mod Release Combined Mod v3.2 (No longer being worked on)

    This might have something to do with this messed up video file ("Pirate.wmv", wich is afaiks not part of the mod) It is located in your main game directory under.../RECOURCE/VIDEO/. Try replacing it with a copy of one of the other video files - England.wmv for example. Please make a backup of...
