    Question about the daughters

    no lockups here either. If you have windows XP service pack 2 installed for some ungodly reason try setting CPY priority to above normal in taskmanager. This seems to help when background TSR's like msmgs.exe,svchost.exe, or symwsc.exe decide they want to suddenly take 95% of your processor...

    New Flag.

    hehe, well i put in SDK but im going to need to school myself in it since i cant seem to get the flags to appear on my ship. They display as the proper flags in the flag choice scrolling menus, but when you pick one it shows one of the other designs in game instead. Perhaps there is a hidden...

    New Flag.

    Is the directX software developer's kit Dtex utility the only thing that can open .DDS files? I dont want to spend the next half hour downloading 200 plus megs of files if there is an easier way lol.

    Escort Missions and Wanted Criminals

    Tired of all the Farnsworths, Connerys, and Farthingtons already? Seems the Raymondo family should get together with those above and discuss lineages sometime. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cat"...

    Didn't see this coming?

    Well....i once chewed the heck out of a spanish war galleon's sails with a brig, only to have him somehow tack over across the wind with scraps left for sails and lay into me with about 18 cannon of chain shot....took my sails almost all the way out and left me foundering inside his gun arc. i...

    90% average review vs. this forum

    Ill say this: The only bugs ive encountered have ALL been due to MICROSHAFT..er...Soft XP service pack 2 related usage of my computer resources, such as taskmgr or rundll using 99% of my processor time for no apparent reason and causing a hang. I have been able to avoid this by immediately...

    What Rating would you give this game mateys?

    Fun factor:8.5 Replay factor: 7.5 Graphics: 9.75 Sound: 8.5 Music: 9.5 Charm: 9 Piratey Goodness: 9 Overall good, but yes, per replay factor, having to conceptualize a dozen b@stard brothers all named Raymondo, to replace the "same old guy you just cant seem to kill" gets a bit...

    Sid...What did you do??????

    For Cybr up there, if you divide your plunder you are given the option to advance to a higher difficulty or remain on the current level. Once you get up to swashbuckler you can really be humbled if you dont have a good array of items to offset character age,etc. Starting on swashbuckler can...

    sword fights on swashbuckler...

    learn to jump and duck better and make sure you come out of each with a stab, not a low or high strike. The AI just dodges all the high and low strikes automatically and stabs you. Your best bet is to react to your opponent's moves, not trying to attack him directly. I know it sounds obvious...

    Morgan, Kidd, & Treasure Fleet

    Okay this question will cause some debate?

    Why use a War galleon? they are fat cows in the water, man. A brig of war carries 12 more cannons and turns on a relative dime in comparison, not to mention it can carry the same number of crew and cargo. If your starved for cash go and recruit a few natives or pirates to raid a local enemy city...
