    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Much better :D No double/treble/quadruple headed crew for hire (although you only seem to be able to talk to two out of four). No sidewise sitting officers at that top table. I've checked many times (during game start i always try to recruit a full compliment of Officers), so been in and out...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Sadly i just get an 'unsupported compression method for LT_I.gm' error when i try to extract it. I've downloaded it a couple of times with same result. This is a 7-zip archive isn't it? I've tried both 7-zip and ZipGenius so far, any ideas pedrwyth? And where does the file go, just in case it...

    Included in Build Wind Direction and Storm Occurance in 3D Sailing Mode

    It can sometimes feel like it is like that ;) But it is not all the time, or i suspect i'd be complaining about it no end! Or is this in Beta 4 in particular perhaps (as i've not had a lot of time in that). I find the winds are fairly random in direction, but that means you do spend time into a...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    yeah i wasn't sure if it 'really' was a double char (probably not) or just a random chance of the same model being called for both sailors for hire. Not an issue really other than the top guys orientation issue.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Yeah this particular installer didn't like being in the same game directory, so i had to move it out of there, and i also did the same for HUGE file (it probably has a correct technical name right ;) ) as it seemed to complain about it not being in the same place as the installer (iirc). I...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Update, yeah just checked all 4 installs (Beta 1 patch 7, Beta 3.1, Beta 3.4 and Beta 4) and all have the buildinfo.txt in the main \Pirates of the Caribbean\ directory. The install process put it there (no copy/pasting from my side).

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Oh nice stuff pedrwyth :) So i can use this in both 3.1 and 3.4 right (but not 4)? I will test it out and report back. I might have to pick your brains a little more on the issue, but i will make note of which files we are talking about here and try to take up as little of your time as possible...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    yeah...pretty sure i do (that old PC is off, just as i head for bed, so can't check all 4 installs i'm currently running!) i believe i have it in all of them....possibly ;) I can report back tomorrow for certain, and i never manually placed it, i think the install process makes it.

    WIP Black Barts Playtesting thread for Build 14 Beta 4 WIP (ver:18 Jan 2016)

    It was the first thing i noticed about Beta 3.4, and after the experiment to limit fps it was more or less resolved in Beta 3.4 for me (not 100% gone, but no where near as obvious), even just adding 2x antialising (which was the first thing i did to get rid of the jaggies on the rigging) seemed...

    Solved Internal settings not right after installing new WIP update

    I love getting 'be calmed', it is ever sailors lov.....er i mean terror. Your rations go down, you annoy each other as more still time passes by, you eye one another trying to work out who would taste the best, if the winds never return.......... Or as this is PotC you just press the speed up...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Step 1: install new default PotC Step 2: place both part 1(installer) and part 2(HUGE file) in that directory (next to ENGINE.exe etc) Also tested outside the game folder, same issue. Step 3: run installer Step 4: not a victory! The message was something like 'could not find buildinfo.txt, you...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    (very sorry for digging up these older threads!) Ok so Peiters link to the older Beta 3.1 (and older!) versions here: Pirates of the Caribbean PC Mods | GameWatcher That 3.1 install, with Part 1 and Part 2, did not easily install for me, as i had prepared a default PotC install (from the euro...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3.4 Release

    A Pirates life is a dangerous occupation for sure Pieter ;) Well i got 3.1 downloading (thanks for the encouragement Hylie :D ) and will scan some Beta 2 threads tomorrow, whilst i sail in Direct Sail mode in Beta 1 Patch 7, whilst also getting in a bit of work (see that is how i do my direct...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3.4 Release

    Good sleuthing! Interesting - So that list descends with the latest at the top (Beta 3.1)........so there was no Beta 2 series of the Build? As it jumps right from Beta 1 Patch 1 (and i have Patch 7!) to the Beta 3.1 series? I will have a go and see if those Beta 3.1 links still...

    WIP Black Barts Playtesting thread for Build 14 Beta 4 WIP (ver:18 Jan 2016)

    I don't think i said that (if that was a reply to me?). General performance between Beta 3.4 and Beta 4 are about on par, if i go on the amount of K that ENGINE.exe is using, or the amount of GPU Ram being used, they are pretty similar. What is different is the game smoothness, as we know Beta...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3.4 Release

    Yeah i figured these would be known errors and be worked on for fixing in later builds, which is cool :) And once i have completed some stuff in Beta 1 Patch 7, mainly to compare the experience with the later Builds (!) i will have a go at getting the screenshot and all error files (PotC and...

    WIP Black Barts Playtesting thread for Build 14 Beta 4 WIP (ver:18 Jan 2016)

    sadly Beta 4 just won't sail right for me Pieter, which is a shame, but i AM on an old OS and rig (performance was not an issue when it would run for me).

    WIP Black Barts Playtesting thread for Build 14 Beta 4 WIP (ver:18 Jan 2016)

    Yeah the gaining 5 levels just from sailing in Direct Sail from Speightstown to Jamaice was in the latest Beta 4 (and the one time it worked without any CTD's). I've been unable to test Beta 3.4 even that much due to some CTD's related to ships losing masts (and errors associated with their...
