    There are French, Polish, Russian and Spanish translations, plus your Portuguese translation. Of those, Polish has not been updated for ages and French has not seen much activity. So Portuguese, Russian and Spanish are the currently active translations.

    Done. Also: "PROGRAM\Locations\init\SaintMartin.c" needs a line in the definition for "Philipsburg_Dungeon". It won't have shown up on a search by location path because it uses a different model, presumably to drop the whole location so that the lower level is flooded, but apart from that it's...

    One more - "Cayman.c" needs a line in the section for "Cayman_Grot_02". It uses "locations\Inside\Dungeon_3" so it will need 'Locations[n].map = "mapOxbay_Cave";'.

    Thanks! :cheers Several other locations are going to need 'Locations[n].map' lines added, starting with "Redmond.c" - find the section for "Redmond_Dungeon_2" and add 'Locations[n].map = "mapRedmond_Dungeon";'. Some other places have copies of these dungeons, such as Antigua and Cayman. The...

    As far as I can tell, that's what I already have to put the map into the game, with some adaptations for BNH such as using "items_maps.png" instead of "items_maps.tga", and some extra code in "PROGRAM\INTERFACE\map.c" to check for .jpg map textures which I don't need because I converted the map...

    Neither do I. Having been attracted to this thread by recent activity, I then went to the beginning to look at the whole lot. Doh! Should have looked it up - I simply guessed that it was related to "Up Periscope", which was WW2. But that just puts it even further away from the usual time...

    @Hammie: could you upload your files so I can include them in the updates, please?

    Not being sure how this works, I'd really prefer to leave the map code as it is. I'm not concerned about "professional" code but I am concerned about introducing something which could still cause trouble to normal map operations, just to make things easier in dungeons which by their nature...

    Indeed it should be "exit". Case "Balboa_challenge2" should not try to link back to itself!

    Pirates' movies

    Looking back through this thread, the 1983 one has already been mentioned: Pirates' movies "The King's Pirate" is apparently a remake of the older Errol Flynn film "Against All Flags". And that, in turn, reminds me of "Under Ten Flags", which admittedly was set in WW2, but then so is "Down...

    Increase Horizontal mouse sensitivity on player character, not just in menus.

    Was there really any need to post the entire article when you knew it to be wrong? I've put "spoiler" tags round it for now so that other readers don't see it immediately, with large bold text at that, and think it might be a useful hint. As to the actual problem, my personal experience is...

    PTBR Translation

    This is also something I do not fully understand. It's probably best to just let the player find the dungeon maps in the inventory as usual and leave the code for the archipelago map alone. Players have been quite happily looting dungeons for years, so there's no particular reason to change it...

    Need Help The speed of ships

    What does "error.log" say? You don't need to make a full backup of the download but it is a [i[really[/i] good idea to make a copy of any file you edit. You should see the number of "_orig" and "_copy" files I have littering my Build 14 installation for exactly this reason! Then, if I foul up...

    Need Help The speed of ships

    I'd be very surprised if files are booby-trapped to prevent them from being edited. Far more likely is that editing a file without knowing what one is doing will break the game, either by unintended side-effects or by a simple typo preventing the file from working. There should be log files...

    What does "error.log" say when you try to run console including that command? In "a_map.c", function "ShowIslandInfo", there is this:PChar.from_map = true;This part of the function is the code which shows the island map when you click on the island on the archipelago map, which should not...

    Pirates' movies

    "Kidnapped" is presumably based on the book by Robert Louis Stevenson. There might be some action on sailing ships but calling it a pirate movie is stretching the definition quite a bit! In any case, IMDB shows several films titled "Kidnapped" and only a couple of them are based on the book...

    In BNH: none. In NH: as you'd expect, a fore and aft rig such as a lugger can sail well across the wind but is less efficient with a following wind. "Sailing" skill also has an effect. If you only have "Sailing" 1, you just about know that the pointy end is the bow and is supposed to be at the...

    Squire of the Sea

    Perhaps I should give her a pure sail frigate instead of the steam frigate. There are several frigates in the game with identical stats and near identical models apart from colour scheme; the British one is the "Endymion" class. The real HMS Endymion was still in service in the 1840's which...
