Hello my friends,
I have spend all weekend into going trough the code, so far i have discovered so many problems in this game which is not even funny. Here is the problem.
What did they do ?
They took the main codes from Sea Dogs, Took a bit of codes from POTC and they added a bit of codes to it, trying to make them all work together while they where all made on a different version of the Engine. Which brings to the following problems they tried to upgrade the engine but not upgrade the codes properly. So if we really have to fix this game for all bugs to be out of the game or at least the biggest part of them then we also have to bring everything up to the correct version of the codes.
The Engine needs to be modified to handle the correct codes because right now it's not, i already updated the Engine in update 1 but that was only a small part that i updated to take a few bugs out.
Most modules are outdated, i already updated the Fmodex to the latest version from october 5th and yeah that is even a newer version then that u get with patch 1.42
Now i will keep putting some time into this game but to fix most of the bugs it's gonna be a while and as u all know we are also working on our own games and programs that also take a lot of time and we all have to spend some time with the wife and kids (Family) offcourse.
My thoughts about Akella at this moment ?
Well im actually ashamed that they released such a game, If u look at it then Sea Dogs is even better because it was a clean game, all problems started with POTC when they started adding codes on top of the old sea dogs and it became worse in AOPCT. So will people buy another pirate game from akella, sure some of them probably will because of the love they have for pirate games and i can't blame them but all im saying is don't let Akella and Playlogic get away with it that simple show your disliking of what they did, there is nothing wrong with speaking up and letting them know how u feel, at least that is what i do. I always was a loyal fan of their games but this time it really has gone to far, u get a so called patch and what does it do ? It brakes even more and adds more starforce crap, sure they add a few nice textures just to keep everyone a little bit happy but they only fixed 4 minor bugs i mean c'mon they can do better then that.
Sorry everyone but i just had to say it, it just brings pain looking trough all these codes and having to redo the most of them, it's not even an akella game anymore and not even AOP anymore when all the changeovers are complete it will feel like we have made a whole new game grrrr.
Anyways be a little patient on the bugs because im sure that u will discover a lot more, so far over the weekend i discovered around another 40 to 50 bugs that can be popping up simply because of wrong codes and being made for a wrong engine version. We will do the best we can in fixing them without bringing new bugs which has almost become impossible.
