    Need Help Striking flags

    So I have given up on adapting the AOP1 code for AOP2 surrender. It messes up too many things. I was really wanting surrendered ships to display a white flag like they did in AOP1 Caribbean Tales.

    Need Help How to generate more vessel clutter in harbors

    Gents, I'm looking for ideas about what file(s) I would need to modify to get more random vessels to appear when entering and leaving harbors.

    Need Help Music switch....anyone have ideas?

    So I'm no novice to adding and changing out music, but I have a couple questions. After finishing the substitutions and additions for GOF Eras I'm noticing that not all tracks are playing. It could be that the randomizer just hasn't selected them, but I'm not certain. I've double checked...

    New Orleans Louisiana (NOLA) Pyrate Week

    All lot of folks don't realize what an old and Piratey state Louisiana is. Lake Charles was founded by pirates who hid their ships and loot far up the hidden estuary.
