    B14 troubles

    Thanks for the info... I was never aware of this "license" issue and it has never been an issue in the past as I move SSD/HD around my 4 T61s that I have. Suddenly MS is getting overwrought about licensing so much so that they actually published online a statement of policy that I've never...

    Guys, I'm on W7Pro not 10... whatever is going on is due to restrictions embedded in 7 not 10. Will anyone using 7 comment about this? This did not happen with previous builds so it's reasonable to suspect something was introduced that conflicts with the Lenovo chip set or the W7Pro... right...

    B14 troubles

    Ok... since nobody seems willing to fessup or cooperate What is an NVIDIA graphics app doing in a game program meant for Intel965 W7 use when NVIDIA ended win7 support and is likely the "bug" that is crashing this game? Is this what is crashing the game by conflicting with DX8 Render?

    B14 troubles

    Another irritating flaw in the code keeps rearing its ugly head. About 5-10% of generated personalities in a game have no problem assigning skills. However abilities will cause game crash when assigned. Anybody have a fix for this problem? Very time-wasting to have a character that you cannot...

    Build 14 Final Part 2: Contents Archive: Okay so is this same as: b14_beta4_final.tar piratesnhbmod14v beta40 and... do you trust moddb to not corrupt files like they did for B14v24? Further investigation into bizarre activity of B14v22/24, when used on a C drive that generates the above...

    Update on corruption of V14B24 British play ... really bizarre situation. Play starts normal,,, about an hour into play the sea vanishes boats floating in air, sea bottom visible. Run Avira Avast, iTop malware without a hit on any known malware... making the culprit in the code? Only logical...

    Ahoy Maties... been sailing the Spanish Main instead of the Milky Way since my fix for the malware has restored function of the game... still has the same bugs... screen freeze ship sinking... screen freeze anytime for no reason... scene transition drop out... etc. at least these are the bugs...

    B14 troubles

    Ahoy Ahoy Ahoy Mates... warning! If you play B14v24(22). In my play on W7/10 on Lenovo T61/T510 the Modules .dll files get corrupted so that when you close and try to reopen later the game does not open in W7. The fault given is a Radeon call (?) Where did that come from? In W10 the game loads...

    B14 troubles

    Ok... you've been such a help I had to ask... unfortunately I've been asking this question for years with no one stepping up to help. Any idea which module I might look into? I might be able to figure out from the logic and the plain language words used. Obviously desperate to stop this time...

    Yep sea.dll was corrupted on the Lexar 3.0 USB as well as my T510 when I copied that file from a working game and dropped it in the sea color and texture returned. ? what in the world is going on? Is that file that easily corrupted both on W10 C drive and a USB 3.0? Maybe somebody needs to...

    B14 troubles

    Sorry to be a pest but a recurring gimmick in play has irritated me since v16 and nobody has replied to my frequent complaints. Recruiting in the tavern is plagued by interviews when the candidate suddenly walks away and zigzags about the room very fast and changes direction as soon as I align...

    B14 troubles

    Excellent! I appreciate your taking the time to make the drop-in code, makes the mode a lot easier. Please clarify for me the instruction "AISea.c should not be changed." my take is to leave it as it... embed only worldmap_encgen.c and AIShip.c... right? What I do is to name-change by adding...

    B14 troubles

    Beta test complete, unfortunately AISea.c has failed.... replacement with another file from working game restored function...could be my placement of code or spacing since I'm not familiar with how critical that is...used PDF995 app that prints the text in PDF formatting into a doc that I opened...

    Wow! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I would never have been able to ferret this out of that tornado of code that PotC has become. Has anyone considered cleaning out the obsolete trash and slimming this Hurricane down to a simple compilation? A noble deed indeed if anyone is Hero enough to slay this code...

    Help with storms? Any idea where the constant storms generator is located. The "Weather" in Program location I zeroed used to work just fine but this last v24 seems to be back to the irritating constant storms, and I'd like to be rid of such childish nonsense.as masts knocked down by 4# shot...

    BNH B15 Issues

    Hmmm.... Where can I get help with this Sink a Ship glitch? If I'm getting it whether I use 7 or 10 I suspect it's in the code rather than the OS used. Making a general Call-OUT for HELP! Anyone in the realm having the same problem? Has anyone found this glitch and been able to remove it...

    Yep...it's the installed "Nag-Ware" with constant popup ads to update, go Pro, special sale, etc. Once it posts on top the screen it cannot be removed if they've not tagged it with a delete x in the upper right corner or a dismiss link, whatever... Never had that happen before this is new and I...

    Great! Just what I was looking for... thanks for the direction. Tell Hammie another very irritating issue comes up during play... Nagware demands to "upgrade or new version download" keep popping up over the game. The more aggressive do not have a delete option and persist until I...

    Hey Mr. Wizard! You are right on point! Thanks so much for the help through this maze. Without some kind of operating worksheet I'm navigating by trial and error and trial and error overandoverandover until some iteration works. Doesn't help that I'm also dealing with the "idiot"syncratic...

    BNH B15 Issues

    Thanks to your assurances I suspected an MS culprit, and sure 'nuff they've changed their file handling process. I also suspected the USB approach is no longer available since the code does not appear to link with the Win10 OS. Maybe that's yet another MS neurotic security overreaction? 90%...
