    Sidequest characters as PC's

    For my next trick, here's Claire Larrouse sitting in San Juan tavern waiting for someone to join her expedition: In an alternate universe, i.e. another game, I'm Claire Larrouse: That's not done by renaming myself. I've re-enabled the "name" attributes for model "50_33_40Claire", previously...

    Roxanne's sword

    @Bartolomeu o Portugues: In the "Bartolomeu" storyline, Roxanne Lalliere is a French privateer equipped with a special sword, "Deadly Skull". How about setting up an exception in the part of "NK.c" which gives swords as promotion rewards, so that if you're playing Roxanne as a French privateer...

    Unconfirmed Bug Soldiers not being reinforced

    Does anyone know why this was added to function 'SoldierReinforcements' in "PROGRAM\CCCFunctions.c"? if (sti(GetAttribute(refCharacter, "quest.guard_protection")) < 1) { if (GetAttribute(PChar , "vcskip") == true)...

    Upgrading Virginie d'Espivant

    Virginie d'Espivant is about to become a lot more interesting. What started out as a bugfix has spiralled out of control. The bug and fix are detailed here: Fix in Progress - Passenger problems Summary: Bug: if "A Girl Won in a Card Game" is completed at a certain point in "Tales of a Sea...

    Fix in Progress Passenger problems

    During a recent play through "Tales of a Sea Hawk", I had Marc Blacque and Virginie d'Espivant as passengers. The problem was that they shouldn't have been passengers because I'd completed both quests - I hadn't hired Marc so he should have been in St. Pierre store, and Virginie was last seen...

    On the Beach: minor weirdness in "A Kidnapping"

    Playing "Assassin", I'm now at the section "A Kidnapping". So I talked to the governor of Santo Domingo, then sailed to Cape Francos and went to the shipwreck beach. There I auto-walked a little way, teleported to somewhere in the middle of the beach, turned around to face back to where I had...

    Lord of the Rings in real life

    Go to Google Maps. Look for "Genoenhuis Geldrop". Look at the street names.

    Starting ship

    At present, Captain Jack Sparrow starts the game as an honest merchant in command of a naval cutter with hardly any cargo capacity because it's a naval ship, a warship - not a trading ship. So he's not going to make honest money because the storekeepers fleece him whenever he buys and sells...

    Flying pirate

    Found on a modelling forum: https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235159250-148-roden-gloster-gladiator/ Scroll down to see the side view. :pflag (I found a different website showing more information about the kit. It's not really a pirate aircraft, it belonged to a group of...

    Changing the law

    My current project is to overhaul the way attacks on ships are classed as legal or not. At present, either sinking, looting or capturing an enemy ship is piracy unless you have a Letter of Marque from a nation hostile to the target. If you do, it's a legal attack if you fly any non-pirate flag...

    Fix in Progress What if Francois Moulin doesn't make it?

    You're playing the sidequest Find Angelique Moulin's Father. You've killed Antoine Chamfort, returned to Buccaneers Camp and told Francois the good news, and now he's following you through the jungle back to town. Unfortunately, you're attacked by bandits and Francois is killed in the...

    Tres Hombres

    Found on a scale model forum: Kriegsfischkutter—1/72–Special Navy The thread is about someone's large scale model of a WW2 German fishing trawler. The bit that's going to interest folks here is this paragraph: Here's the website of the Tres Hombres: Tres Hombres - Fairtransport They even...

    Santiano

    This band is German and previously most of their videos were in German. They've translated their signature song into English now.

    Squire of the Sea

    Nice work! :cheers Of particular interest are the one with dark hair, white shirt and blue trousers and the one with fair hair and light blue dress. Here's why: On the left, character model "50_33Petra". On the right, "towngirl1". If you go into a tavern in PoTC, you'll often see a random...

    Flying false colours

    Finally, time for the answer. It's flying false colours. Formerly Spanish, it now has a British owner. And the reason I'm finally writing about it again is that I've recently built a model of it: It's a Hispano Aviacion HA-1112 M1L. True, it was a licence-built copy of a famous German WW2...

    Reputation tweak

    I've made a little change to dialog file "Enc_walker.c". If you're "Hero" or "Dashing" and you refuse to help a beggar, lose 1 reputation. The same beggar who would tell the world how nice you are and raise your reputation by 1 when you're "Matey" or less, now tells the world that you're not...

    WIP Improvements to "Manowar" models

    This is Silehard's flagship Sovereign of the Seas, alias "manowar1". The rigging can be diplomatically described as "minimalist". So here's what I've been doing recently: I'm particularly pleased with the ropes which are tied to the hull, such as backstays and mainbraces. Because...

    Odd things after Cozumel

    You've defeated the Black Pearl, you've gone to Port Royale and told the new governor what you did to Silehard, you leave the residence and talk to Danielle. When you return to the port or beach, Danielle talks again about going to see the governor about a reward for Silehard. The reason is in...

    Fixed Unable to sail to Peninsula de Zapata

    Playing "Ardent", I found an odd little bug. It was near the end of "Imperial Escort". I'd defeated the kidnappers' ship and wanted to use Sail To to zap back to the mooring point to go after the kidnappers in the cave. But Peninsula de Zapata did not show up in the Sail To destinations...

    False naval flags

    You're trying to sneak into a hostile port using a false flag. Because you have no LoM, that false flag is the naval type. If you're in a pure warship such as a frigate, that's a bit of a giveaway, isn't it? Because anyone legitimately in charge of a frigate either bought it (which requires a...
