Original Opening Post:
Grey Roger said:
3.2 introduces new stuff such as locked perks, "fetch" quests which are necessary to unlock some of them and which don't work, a modified encounter system which means pirates never appear on the worldmap, and a modified economy which makes it next to impossible to make a profit as an honest trader or smuggler. I tried it, then went back to 3.1. :p
Click to expand...
That sounds like a reasonable summary, so I have now done what I could to temporarily remove all that new stuff from my game.
The result runs, but I haven't done any sort of in-depth testing on it.

Anyway, extract this on top of Build 14 Beta 3.2 to add all the latest fixes and remove all the controversial new features:
1. Beta 3.2: Using the Installer EXE and 7-Zip Archive
2. Beta 3.3 WIP: http://piratesahoy.net/build/b14_beta3-3_wip3.exe

Let me know how this works! If this does seem more playable,
we can see about putting the new stuff back in one by one and fixing things along the way.

Here's to hoping! :cheers

Umm, new game required? I am at level 39 and have a ship in my fleet that has not been released yet, so might want to be able to keep what I have now.

I would indeed recommend a new game. I even enforced it, though it might work on a previous savegame. Maybe, perhaps....
 
PROBLEM: I installed and tested out the main story. All works well until I go back to my ship and go to sea. Once I do this I am not in the bay but out in an open area with no "Sail To" option available and when I go to the world map the game crashes.
 
Just checked-out the other storylines--They all do it. As soon as you leave your ship deck to go to sea you are in an open sea area and the game crashes when you go to the world map...

But I just checked and in the 7-Zip file I uploaded, that last line is NOT in the included islands_init.c! So I've got no clue how you managed this.
I just tried my own Beta 3.3 WIP installation and it appears to work fine. Can you try to download and install the file from the opening post again?

Ship selection works as it should here. :shrug

Nightmare said:
yeah nice but pieter where are the new staff i dont see anything new. :(
Click to expand...
I wasn't talking about anything new, was I? Perhaps sorting out the Beta 3.2 gameplay issues is more important? Perhaps? :whipa

Actually, I did sneak the new Merchant Pinnace in there, but didn't have time yesterday to set up a full Change Log.
 
Will do, Peter. I'll make a fresh install of the game and build 14.3.2 as well, perhaps something got screwy. I've never touched islands_init.c though.
 
Opening post updated. New version included with some extra stuff and a Change Log this time. :doff
 
Okay, seems to work now... Installed the super graphics this time. Not sure I call it an improvement though it may just be that I need to get used to it. Does seem a little sharper but there is a werd glow to everything that I find disquieting, lol.

BTW: I notice the roll indicator is gone from the storms, is that one of the things that got pulled?

Uhm... No. That should still be there. Still saw it earlier today. Though I do believe there is a bug where it doesn't always show up when it should. (And sometimes does show up when it shouldn't. :facepalm )
 
Ugh... o_O Off to make my own mods compliant now. I'll post updated links for 3.3 versions of the new uniforms and firearms.

I'm still working on the Holland and Portugal naval uniforms but they should be ready in a week. I expect to have 25 new models in total by the time I'm finished, I have most of the textures done.

I can sort out compatibility later. Just don't want to get caught up adding new stuff yet.
Actually, I've got some new stuff already, but am holding off until we've got our gameplay base sorted.

No rush. I've got quite a bit on my plate still. :wp

Understood, but I want to use them myself plus it will be easier on you if you don't have to comb through the files for missing/extra data down the road.

We want a midshipman, lieutenant, captain, and admiral for each, correct?
 
Something to note re: land crew equipping form the weapons locker. No weapons in the locker they equip a cutlass. I put three good bosun's choice and three different firearms in as a test. Took three crew ashore and they equipped a cutlass and one of the firearms. Then we got into a melee on land. They all fought with the Bosun's choice but no one fired a gun. Two died and when I looted their corpses they had no firearms and a cutlass. The one who died had lost his firearm and was carrying a cutlass again. Now I think it is fine to equip them from the weapons locker, but after they have done it they should re-equip from the locker after a melee, right?

Btw I liked the locked abilities they worked well except the two that were tied to the broken fetch quests.

As always your efforts are greatly appreciated. :cheers
