    Unconfirmed Bug Turks fort

    Dunno if this is actually a bug or not but..... On my 2nd visit to Turks my Polacca was intercepted by an English fleet and I had to swap flags around in order to buy time to make it into port. By the time I made it into range of the fort I was flying a friendly flag and was already neutral...

    A question regarding flags

    Yes forts can see a long ways. I changed flags too close to Bridgetown and now the fort fires on me even though I'm neutral to England. I presume a visit to the English governor will take care of it.

    The little things

    True, but generally the Portagees are the friendliest people.

    The little things

    "For example. you see a ship you want and board it, drop a capable officer on it and then swap ships and i cant seem to use the sails >world map" This is an old problem that seems to have never been fixed. As I recall, you can keep swapping between ships and the sails will start working or, if...

    Russian vs. western gamers

    Dunno why I didn't notice this earlier. Yes, there was one TEHO dev who posted here from the Crimea. With the invasion he went quiet for a while and then showed up in SouthEastern Ukraine. I got the impression that he had been a homeless refugee for a while. Then he quit posting here.

    I've always liked that ship but could never get the sails to work properly.

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

    This is a guide to installing and setting up MSI Afterburner and Rivatuner so that you can lock the frame rate at a low enough rate so that POTC does not run in slow motion. 1) Download and install MSI Afterburner from here. Rivatuner is included. MSI Afterburner 4.5.0 (Official) Download...

    Mod Release Gentlemen Of Fortune 2.0

    That sounds like GOG changed something which conflicts with the mod, which was made years before.

    Mod Release Gentlemen Of Fortune 2.1.5 mod development

    Both versions of GOF2 were stable for me when I played them in 2015. One version had more sound options but did have some bugs on my system. GOF2 was fine as we spent a lot of time reverting back to a stable setup and then slowly adding content back and testing. The only times I can recall...

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

    How long that voyage will take depends on your ship, your skills, and luck. With an average ship, skills, and luck you should make it in just under a month. With a Pinnace fighting head winds you are in trouble.

    It's not just the latest greatest games anymore. I play POTC, the Half Life series, the Bioshock series, and the Witcher series. My system is capped at 150fps for POTC and the Half Life series and the first 2 Bioshocks run at 150fps. Bioshock Infinite (2013) runs in the 80-140fps range, and...

    The business world seems to be lagging behind. In gaming a 10 year old computer can't even run modern games or they run so poorly that the experience is so bad that no reasonable person would do it. In gaming the days of the little quad core cpu are ending as most of them are running at 100%...

    I don't think you will ever convince me that a laptop can do any real work with their 10 year old design cpu. My slightly above average desktop can do video editing at the rate of 3 gb per minute while doing other things as well.

    Need Help More direct-sail encounters

    My experience is that storms happen. In fact I always start out in a tier 8 Tartane or Hoy just so it won't capsize when I get caught in a storm when my skills are very low. One can go for months at a time with nothing but clear weather and then get hit with storm after storm in one voyage. A...

    Yeah, most people are like that. One of my brothers is still using a desktop rig I bought new in 2007. All he does is surf and it is still good for that. His son is using one I built up out of spare parts I had laying around. My wife is still using her 10 year old Mac and I gave her a new...

    Of course they are all data mining! It started officially back around 2003. There is a large building in Silicon Valley with a false top floor. It is actually filled with antennas. The guys building it were all talking about the size of the cables going into it then talking about all the...

    I do not use Google, Facebook, or Twitter as they are all well known data miners. Firefox Nightly is my browser. I installed Win10 in August 2015. Since then it has been running on heavily overclocked systems, been moved from hard drive to hard drive, and has had multiple major hardware...
