    Fixed Missing character at cave entrances

    Well i first reported this bug as being connected to the item under the rock at this Barbados cavern entrance location, i had thought that the error message was related to the 'loot' item you find when you get that hand icon and normally under that icon it says 'Item' letting you know something...

    Feature Request Ship's Log to Include More Details

    oh yes keep it (!) i was not suggesting otherwise, but i think Pieter knows the odd behaviour and why that happens, and i think i had just been using it 'wrong' to trigger that, which made me wonder if it was bust or something. I will stick to clicking the category tabs on the left of the screen...

    Poll Level-Based or Career-Based Abilities?

    Well i actually do like the tips all over the loading screens........i did actually learn something new from a few as i've been playing the later builds and stuff changes :yes And thanks for the pointers etc, that will all be extremely handy when i get time to do things :D And while it might...

    Included in Build Larger Size for "Cheap Compass"

    Ok i'll see what i can do for moving the ammo icon a little. I've run tests in various resolutions, from 800x600 (fullscreen and windowed) and a setting of 100 (in place of 120) looks better (but 95 is the value i ended up with as the best). It is only slightly larger than the 80 current...

    Included in Build Larger Size for "Cheap Compass"

    I did notice the poll (finally!) and voted yes obviously as i like to see things function in the game. I still have a few issues with it currently, as i don't think it is really fix/finished just yet, having play tested it........ Edit: I just ran the changes to set it to 120, and it may be a...

    Included in Build Larger Size for "Cheap Compass"

    Exactly ;) Sun and Moon is all fine and good, but the purpose of a compass is to be able to read it, you used to (in older builds) for the basic compass, but not so much now. It doesn't need a huge increase in size btw, really just enough to tell the difference between the red 'N' and the other...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 4 Internal WIP For Testing

    It still feels wierd though, but only in combination with using Map Navigation then switching to Direct Sailing mode. In this specific case i was hoping to be closer to dock to avoid the CTD i get in direct sail under Beta 4. I can probably switch off the Open Sea Mod, but i do like it...

    Fixed Missing character at cave entrances

    Been looking at this in game in Beta 1 Patch 7. No error messages. Also there are only ever three NPC's, either as general roaming non-hostile encounters or when static highwaymen/bandits waiting for the trigger if you get too close to them etc. The location of these bandits is as we have seen...

    Fixed Missing character at cave entrances

    Ah, yes. That might have indeed been the error message i thought related to the item in that location. There were only three bandits in the location.

    Feature Request Ship's Log to Include More Details

    Did we always have a 'ship's log' even? The Quest Book obviously is required, but i'm not sure on the Ship's log. I see you can also add your own entries, so maybe we could reduce the 'spam' and just keep it to player entries IF this is a mod added feature and not part of the default game?

    Poll Level-Based or Career-Based Abilities?

    I've been thinking about this a bit, and having played the different versions where the changes took place i guess these are my conclusions. I agree the default method was very gamey, and also pretty quickly you ran out of abilities to give your char and officers. However it did give you the...

    Low Priority Ship's Log odd behaviour

    Sometimes the Ship's Log can behave strangely. Different entries can appear in the same entry you currently select. Seems to be related to using 'esc' to exit the current entry you are reading to get back to the main list of entries, then reading an entry from their. If you use the 'All'...

    Low Priority Scroll Bars Not Functioning Correctly

    The scroll bar in the Ship's Log does not always function well (but this happens in other parts of the game too! Like in the options screen) when just trying to use the mouse. You have to use the arrow keys on the keyboard sometimes to be able to scroll through all the entries details.

    Feature Request Ship's Log to Include More Details

    I mentioned in the Beta 4 WIP thread where i brought this up, if it would be possible to get specific entries in the Ship's Log about what actions you took, over the slightly more generic info we get now. For example where we now have: 'visited the local merchant, sold off our cargo and...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 4 Internal WIP For Testing

    I should add the balance of getting over-powered items too early is MUCH better in Beta 4 vs 3.4! So this is really just a minor tweak thing if others think it a good thing, from my point of view the scale is nearly about right, the Portuguese Officers sword from the Barbados caverns is still...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 4 Internal WIP For Testing

    Been testing Beta 4 some more (will skip the direct sail in this version!). 1. At the Barbados caves in the jungle i got this error message when going to pick up the item by the rocks (it was for a small mosaic) : ERROR - Missing Character ID: Enc Char4. See the screenshot below. I think i...

    Included in Build Larger Size for "Cheap Compass"

    The simple compass is too small! I remember in a previous version (Beta 1 most likely) i had to add red to the north 'N' direction to help it stand out a bit more, but the current scale (to fit inside the basic green 'arc of fire' circle on the hud) is so small even picking out the red 'N' is...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 4 Internal WIP For Testing

    first attempt failed(@72%) :( I have space for it (31GB free in the home partition). second attempt failed (@64%). Says there is a write error each time. I don't want to wreck my download limits, so i may hold of on this for now, maybe try again tomorrow - these are big files to download (and...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 4 Internal WIP For Testing

    ok trying this out - thanks Hylie (i hope i have space for it on my gaming XP machine! hmm i'll probably delete 3.4 version) @pedrwyth, i ended up with repeatable CTD's while using direct sail to go from Speightstown to Jamaica (usually happened in the first bit, leaving barbados) in any 3.4...
