    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    Hey @Grey Roger, am I correct in noticing the sale price of Contraband Ebony has been reduced by 50-60% in this update? If so, then great :) The self-proclaimed fastest brig in the game is still one of the slowest vessels available though. Even Tartanes outrun it with generally a 15-16+ speed...

    Solved Windows 10: Low Frame Rates Despite (BECAUSE OF!) Good Hardware

    Any particular reason why Stock PotC can alt + tab just fine but build mod can not?

    Solved Windows 10: Low Frame Rates Despite (BECAUSE OF!) Good Hardware

    Besides the build mod specifically stating never to run in fullscreen mode, I specifically got a 1080ti card to run any game in borderless mode at 165hz 2k as to easily do stufd on my secondary 2k monitor simultaneously :p

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    I believe thats what he meant, but worded it awkwardly. Personally i have an empty partition just for PotC. It only has the stock game folder PotC, a PotC NH folder where i copied stock game + latest build install, a NH Download folder with the latest build files and archives and backups of...

    Solved Windows 10: Low Frame Rates Despite (BECAUSE OF!) Good Hardware

    I've now tried various solutions but none seem to sort an effect for me. In fullscreen mode the game runs like a charm and FPS limiters work as well as OSD's but in windowed/borderless mode FPS limiters don't work, perhaps because I have more than 1 monitor, I don't know... anyone know an FPS...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    So does one simply install the opening post files, then download this update file, copy and overwrite mod folder?

    Yes it does! Thanks :)

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    Hahaha, alright, makes sense! Think i'll go at it again after next update then :) nathaniel hawk's storyline with the interceptor as starting ship and privateering for the British royal navy as to have a more diverse selection of end game ships :) Come to think of it, the Interceptor did have...

    Not a Bug No Personal Flag

    Can I read up on how to go about that? My girlfriend might be willing to do it when she's bored :D

    Not a Bug No Personal Flag

    Ahhh... I guess I have mislead myself then! On my first ever campaign in the Build Mod, I had selected the 'amsterdam' flag as personal flag. That flag IS available as a sail emblem as well. Hence I assumed, the national flag you choose is represented as the emblem on your sails! But this is...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    I don't quite remember anymore which ships exactly were faster, but I started a campaign with that ship, had it entirely decked out with all upgrades, yet almost every ship seemed to outrun it, so I felt a bit deceived, expecting it to be a great starter ship for a privateer campaign. To live up...

    Not a Bug No Personal Flag

    So I removed the options file and went back, but still it's the skull with crossed pistols that shows up as 'national emblem' sails. See: Screenshot Options I'm expecting: Screenshot

    Need Help List of available ships?

    Thanks! Now I know I like the British and Danish designs the most when it comes to tier 3-1 ships and should look for Spanish and Dutch vessels for my companion ships for an increased chance at a good cargo capacity and a Pirate or British personal ship :)

    Not a Bug No Personal Flag

    Yes sorry I wasn't very clear. I mean sail emblems. When going to sails and picking sails and then for emblemed sails, it also shows the skull sail rather than my personal flag emblem. I'll try resetting the options file:)

    Need Help List of available ships?

    Hmm... so it helps frequenting Spanish and Dutch shipyards earlier on for higher chance of good cargo capacity, and so on. That's really cool. You guys have done such awesome jobs :D Another question: I've enabled cheatmode to see which vessels are available in what tiers and I must say, the...

    Mod Release Build 14 GAMMA [Last Update: 31st December 2021]

    I have one suggestion to make for the next update or the one after that: The HMS Interceptor is a great looking ship but has a deceptive description: "There's no ship as can match the Interceptor for speed".. It is one of the slower vessels in the game though, which makes little sense to me. Can...

    Not a Bug No Personal Flag

    Hey Guys, When I first installed the Build Mod and started a Nathaniel Hawk campaign, my chosen personal flag would grace the sails and flags of my ships while sailing. Since then, I have started over many times due to bugs, glitches, mistakes and so on. At one point I also had my personal...

    Need Help List of available ships?

    So I just checked the ships_init.c file and I noticed it opens with some ship stats per nation. Am I correct in interpreting them as: English have 20% more capacity, 15% more HP and cost 10% more, Spanish have 35% more capacity, 10% more HP and cost 5% more, Pirate Ships have a 10% boost to...
