    I would appreciate some detailed info on the sword-fighting

    Personally, I feel superhuman in fights now that I have the fencing skills, 75 heavy weapons (not including my +20 heavy idol) and berserk. In situations where I'm literally surrounded by enemies and I trigger beserk and do the roundhouse slash, doing upwards of 400 damage going and coming...

    Monkey Island is BACK!

    The special edition looks terrible, honestly. The rendered characters look pretty cheap and Guybrush looks like his hair could cut a mountain in half. Also, there's a clear disparity between Guybrush/Elaine and everyone else. For Guybrush and Elaine they seem to have gone with a bizarre...

    game cheats badly

    Using the built-in debug trainer you can turn off rats, which is what I did. I think they're an unrealistic and unwelcome problem. I wouldn't mind it if they were tweaked to only eat foodstuffs and not ridiculous quantities, but as it is now they are pretty much a broken element of the game.

    New Textures successful!!!

    Since you're trying to get the modules folder working, let us know what files in there to rename/delete to get the game to start <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />. I'm not sure how much of the ini you can...

    New Textures successful!!!

    I got parts of the hardcore mod working quite easily by copying the RESOURCES and modules folders into a 'Russian_CoAS' folder inside of the MODS folder for the Generic Mod Enabler and just renaming the modules and ini folders so they don't install. This way you get all the textures and...

    [REL] CoAS Hardcore Edition 1.2.3

    Changing one of the potential 'top' officers to hire is pretty easy, though you'll want to make a copy of HeroDescribe.txt since it will involve overwriting an existing one. For instance, Cecil Forrester is in HeroDescribe and every game I play I find him at just about every tavern, so he'd be...

    New Textures successful!!!

    I'm not that fond of Peter Blood's reskin to be honest. If anything, I think the new skin they made (third picture) could have been used model and all for Peter Blood. I think the Peter Blood model (and Jeremy Pitt to a greater degree) have strange, cartoony proportions compared to the other...

    Closed chest in Tenochtitlan (not the one with the knife)

    I actually found a totem (can't remember which one) along the fence behind a church. I think it was in port of spain but I could be wrong. It's the only church you can actually walk behind that I've found, though.

    Bounty on my head

    I wonder if those little ships actually have some kind of editable ai?

    fencing videos, one on one

    You're probably moving back while holding space or shift, which does a dodge. Let go of the key the moment you see him prepare and move backwards <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />.

    It would be great if you could upload your version as a mod so everyone doesn't have to manually delete stuff and package it up!

    Bounty on my head

    I don't think sneaking and stealth work for everyone because I've tried to do the whole sneak in scenario many times only to be forcibly stopped by guards well out of range and then attacked. The governor has two guards stationed outside and inside his building minimum, making the stealthy...

    fencing videos, one on one

    If you time it right you can shift+dodge power strikes without having to jump back and then get back into the fight. I've done it before and it even works when surrounded.

    US/UK version patches?

    Good to know, thanks. As many bugs as the game still has, I wonder when/if they're going to do another patch.

    How do you free slaves?

    More details would be helpful, Kazeite. What was the honor level of the officers it raised loyalty with? What faction were the Captains (pirates, dutch, french)? These things will all affect the result, and freeing captains has done nothing for my 'man of honor' officer.

    The man in the "dungeon" (spoilersih)

    I didn't even bother with the cuirass. It's a waste of weight if you ask me, especially with the BERSERK skill. My Falchion does upwards of 700 damage a hit with berserk, so I just use the shift+sweep attack and mow targets down with absolutely no problem. I do like to keep things interesting...

    A little modding help?

    Nope, already checked. It only uses BlazeN and I can't find out where on the texture the bandanna is after recoloring different sections of it.

    How do you free slaves?

    As far as I can tell, letting captured captains go does not do ANYTHING for your faction standing with them or for your reputation (or your officer loyalty). It could definitely use a tweak.
  19. veradin

    Lets talk about loyality...

    I think some of the reputation boosts are switched around in the code. Turning in captains should raise your standing with good officers while drowning them should lower it (raise it with bad officers). Capturing ships should raise standing with both so long as you were attacked or are...

    A little modding help?

    Well spotted, Veritas! That fixed the battle portrait. Now if I could just find out where the damn bandanna tails are textured I'll be all set <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />.
