14.6 builds, hosting the files

Hi all,

After being away from PotC for a while, I came back to the game. My last update was using the Build 12 version. I figured after all this time there had to be updates and so there were.

However I am extremely surprised to find that not a single copy exists anywhere for poeple to download and use. With Peiters site offline there is no access to the files or updates.

From what I have read, the latest mainly stable version is 14.6. Is this the case?

I have builds 12 & 13. I also read that Build 13 was considered stable but my experience shows this could be problematic. I routinely have CTD's that are just random in nature. The only crash in 13 that was not random was when I hit the TAB key to go first person on a ship I captured. For some reason that one ship I could not tab to.

Anyhow, if someone is willing to get me the files, I will host them. I will place Builds 12 & 13 online and Build 14.6 (or whichever is considered the current stable build)

Lastly, is there still active work going on the project since there seems to be no location for people to download anything anyhow?

Well let me know and we can go from there.

The current <i>stable</i> Build is Build 13 Final (aka Build 13 + Update 3), which IS available. An additional fix that should be made is to set MAPSPEED 1.0 at the top of PROGRAM\Worldmap\worldmap.c

Build 14 Alpha 6 is quite playable, but its not called "Alpha" for nothing. I deliberately removed it from our <a href="http://potc.moddb.com" target="_blank">ModDB profile</a> to prevent regular gamers from using a game version under development. Unfortunately with my site being unavailable now, it is no longer available anywhere. I'll upload it to the <a href="http://www.pafiles.com/build" target="_blank">Build FTP</a>. It'll be a while until I'm done with that though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Build 14 is still very much in active development. Actually, Thomas the Terror, Pirate_KK and I were working on the new <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11360" target="_blank">Ships and Ports in the Deck Scene</a> mod only yesterday. My site being unavailable happened suddenly a couple of days ago. It seems to be some sort of server probem, so hopefully it will be back online soon.
 
just a question: how where you going to host it yourself if there was no way to get it in the first place?
 
Hey, I've downloaded 'PotC Build 13 Full'. Is this the last version or do I need to download any additional update?

Thanks and sorry for offtopic.
 
Get <a href="http://pafiles.com/build/b13_update3.zip" target="_blank">Build 13 Update 3</a> and install it on top of Build 13 Full. That will give you Build 13 Final. Then set MAPSPEED 1.0 at the top of PROGRAM\Worldmap\worldmap.c.
 
I'm afraid so. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
Okay, it don't really care. I've been a dev for an online RP game and at large updates we had to delete all accounts. But everything for the updates. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Good day for all! Iam uploading build14 b6 and patch to build ftp server. better luck in next year <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
