    Fix in Progress Repairing Bad Ropes

    I never touched that ship because of being unable to read mast2 plus it has the high camera bug. Many ships were like that after being worked over by 2-4 different modders of varying skill levels and methodology. Do what you want. My eyes are bad and reading can be difficult, so about all I...

    Updates

    COAS has a better system as it tells you which ship has the bad ropes and then lists them. Otherwise it is as Grey Roger did it by taking one ship at a time out and then fumigating it. I got most of them but not all. I'm surprised this one had any bad ropes as she was one of my favorites at...

    Solved Can't go sail

    The Spanish ships of that time were very solidly built. The English considered the warships of the Spanish Armada to be unsinkable although they did sink 3 in the battle of Gravelines when their whole fleet went up against 4 picket ships. The Revenge was the English flagship while the San...

    Solved Can't go sail

    I actually avoid sea battles as the evil winds almost always puts the opponent upwind. If I sail to get a better position the wind shifts so they are once again upwind. If i try to sail away upwind, then the wind shifts so that they are still upwind. It's just too frustrating. Either I...

    Yet another fast war galleon

    Sorry to put you through so much trouble. The original fast galleon had the straight bowsprit but I decided it was not period correct and filched one from a different ship and stuck it on. :wp I might still have the original one somewhere.

    Yet another fast war galleon

    Armada split the bow and made two versions, one with that dragon and one without, at my request. We ran that in POTC and GOF2 until the Zeeroovers came out with their version, which is the one in POTC now. If only a modeler could do that again....

    Need Help Changing compass to the stock version from GOF version

    There are no modders anymore. When they were here they claimed that the compass worked properly, but it never did and no one fixed it.

    Solved Get details from the governor - Tales of a sea hawk

    I usually started from the Lighthouse after saving of course, and most of the time the frigate would turn towards me so I just had to wait for it to clear the main channel before attacking under cover of the hills. Sometimes the frigate would turn the other way so I always had one fast ship for...

    Fixed Kralendijk women cowering

    That sounds like the fix! I have never noticed any odd behavior from the Blacque family either.

    Fixed Kralendijk women cowering

    They are on their respective islands. In the game I'm currently playing the French are relatively well behaved as they only wave their swords around, but the Dutch are quite aggressive and will kill people who are attacking me but still far away. This has caused some mayhem when one of my...

    Solved Get details from the governor - Tales of a sea hawk

    Right. Bridgetown has always been a bit buggy and she might have hit on a certain combination of things that caused it to glitch.

    Fixed Kralendijk women cowering

    I have a suspicion that their behavior it somehow tied to the Dutch and French soldiers going nuts after I entice them to fight on Marigot. They are especially bad in taverns where they kill patrons sitting at tables.

    Solved Get details from the governor - Tales of a sea hawk

    Huh. That used to work. I would land at the lighthouse for that part and then get on my ships and attack the frigate with the idol. I remember I had to stay out of range of the forts guns,

    Fixed Kralendijk women cowering

    Hey! You are supposed to be on vacation. I first encountered this in 2016 and reported it 1 1/2 years ago so it can wait a little longer. Yes it is always the blond one who stands and talks first. Later the one with the hat stands and talks but the one on the other side of the walkway...

    Fixed Kralendijk women cowering

    When I first visited Kralendijk in a new game the three women were in front of the Governors mansion but two of them were cowering and I could only talk to the one that was standing. Later a second woman stood up to talk but the third one never stood up until it was time to walk away. This...

    Fixed The Mysterious Plant Quest Bug

    Have you tried talking to them? Have you tried bumping into them? Usually when that happens elsewhere one of them will eventually move.

    Fix in Progress Captive captains are just clones

    It's nice to see this being worked on as on the few occasions when I managed to capture Silehard he always jumped ship.

    Erroneous install error

    That should not be happening. Something is blocking you from properly installing POTC. Try installing it to C:\Pirates of the Caribbean and see if it works. If it does not, then try to make an exception for POTC in your antivirus. EDIT: Aha! The devil is in the details.

    Brigantine Castell Friedrichsburg 1688, upgraded to 16 guns

    I was compromising between everyone's ideas. Bava said the Polacca should be fast and now it is. With the "Xeb" rig it was too fast into the wind. What I wanted is in between the existing rig types so created "Pol" for it. My goal is to have the CastelF be faster with the wind and the...

    Brigantine Castell Friedrichsburg 1688, upgraded to 16 guns

    Those bad rope messages turned out to be other ships. What fooled me at first was that they were always the same, which meant that whatever ships has the bad ropes is pretty common. I suspect that it is also a larger ship as some of the rope numbers got pretty high, but I have not found her...
