    Tweaking cannons and sails

    I didn't realize that I could already download GOF ;) I play CMV3.2 with all switches set to realistic except for the spyglass, it is just too convinient to check some things out, like the ammo the enemy uses. Like I said you are fine 90% of the time the problems come with the knipples, i have...

    Tweaking cannons and sails

    Those are two things I noticed while playing and perhaps this can be an inspiration for some modders from the GOF mod or the german mod team. I am german too, but I kinda dont want to post this twice. Cannons As it is now, Culverines are totally useless, they weigh more (cargoholds have become...

    Edward Low and Impossible difficulty

    I like the Edward Low mission :) I must say I have never played it on impossible because this game simply crashes too often for my liking so I regularly quicksave and just being able to save in churches is a bit counterproductive in my opinion. For those of us who play on Admiral, I think the...

    Possibility to have direct item

    Try the pinned Thread called "cheatmode" something in this forum http://forum.piratesahoy.net/index.php/topic/13297-reanabling-cheats-aka-debugwindow-in-german-and-uk-version/

    How do I get Mr. Sharps quest?

    I think someone has to mention the name Sharp first or else he only tells you to stay away from his pearls. And that quest to steal the pearls for yourself?

    How do I get Mr. Sharps quest?

    I think there are three quests involving Sharp and until now I only did the one involving Henry Morgan. How can I do the other ones (like chasing sharp himself around the caribbean or killing his spy). I mean, how do I start them? I don't think they are available after I stole pearls for henry...

    Most my companions ship is dull & useless

    You get a message that your town is being raided by a squadron and you have some (very little) time to rush to the defense. There might be 48 pounders out there, my biggest calibre at the moment is 42. Perhaps some of the randomly generated MOWs have them or the french questline ship the Soley...

    Possibility to have direct item

    Activate the F11 cheat menu, go in the installation submenu and there activate "beta test mode" and then go to the next shopkeep. Afterwards deactivate beta test mode. Strange, I found 2 "expensive cuirass" in the coas I think. You have to do the sidequests there like the Layton Dexter Chest and...

    Most my companions ship is dull & useless

    If you haven't done the governor general missions or the pirate questline (do the pirate thing better after the gg missions) then you just loot the city so bring ships with a big cargo hold and loot citys with much gold and silver in the store or you wont get anything out of it (you get lots of...

    Mod Release [REL] MUSKETS AN MUSKETONS

    Yep it works! For double the fun, I recommend using the double barreled gun, now some have a reason not to finish this quest :) There is some "matchlock musket" in the files which is used as a normal pistol by all characters but I suppose that thing doesnt show up in the regular game anyway. I...

    Need help with Combined Mod missing features

    The four cannons should be in the front, if you can remove all cannons, all is ok. In the Mod there are still some ships that have bugged cannon layouts, like the heavy MOW or the Shark. I belive there is a fixed layout for the Shark at least somewhere in the forum. Since the Bluebird is one of...

    Mod Release [REL] MUSKETS AN MUSKETONS

    You dear sir just opened a can of awesome. But the file is not available on megaupload :( and perhaps you could integrate it in the GOF Mod or the CM Mod? I sadly dont have a clean vanilla install because my COAS folder is already about 25 GB big having the SOF mod and the CM 3.2 mod and some...

    Most my companions ship is dull & useless

    Yea the companions are generally a pain, I use them as cargo space and for more soldiers and sailors. Sometimes I see them boarding on their own which is bad because they will have in general much more losses than you would have (the autocalculation seems very unvavorable for the player) and...

    Mod Release 96 Heroes

    Hehe, nice one, i am downloading right now. Finally we are able to play as the pirate with hook hand pegleg and eyepatch :) Wouldn't those spanish looking guys in armor be a great opportunity to make one hero with different skins for the different armors? Just my thought on the matter...

    Spanish quest line...

    I don't think it is possible to do more than one nation questline because they cover the same things from different sides. Playing dutch I think you have to defend Fort Orange, playing English you conquer Fort Orange. But it would be nice if some modification in the files made it possible (or...

    New game characters with beginning plots?

    Are you the one that already did an extensive Lets Play on Youtube? I always thought this game is not suited for those things due to its open world nature and if you really want to lp then you would have to "plan" the whole thing a bit so you do not produce a Lets Fail :) And it wouldn't be too...

    Some questions and observations concerning the Combined Mod v3.2

    I believe there has to be a more elegant solution, I am just not sure what it is. Looking in the encounters init I see the line (for the punitive squadron: makeref(rEnc, EncountersTypes[ENCOUNTER_TYPE_PUNITIVE_SQUADRON]); rEnc.Type = ENCOUNTER_WAR; rEnc.MinRank = 10; rEnc.MaxRank = 1000...

    Some questions and observations concerning the Combined Mod v3.2

    So, I have been playing for quite a while and I have a ton of new complains ;) I am trying to sort this. - The ship "Black Angel" (the one looking like the salamander in black) has a lifeboat on its deck, that lifeboat is completely white without texture (I first thought it should be white like...

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

    Just a quick note on the side ;) the Blue Bird is still bugged with the old layout it is called "Ùåáåêà" I am not a modder (some ideas would be there...) but perhaps by pointing this out I can squash the first bug from the next combined mod ;)
