    Mod Release Double Running Speed (now realistic 6.6 m/s)

    Using time acceleration in game gives me immense motion sickness after just a few minutes of playing with it. So frankly, I never did like that system. Glad I'm not the only one.

    Mod Release Double Running Speed (now realistic 6.6 m/s)

    The custom 2.4x walking speed you made for me works just perfect. Walking no longer feels tediously slow, I love it!

    Historical clothing and uniforms

    I'm a historical reenactor, specialized in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic period. My specific unit is portraying a unit of marines and sailors from the Dutch navy during this period So everything is age of sail related and I thought, why not show some of the clothing and gear I have...

    Mod Release Double Running Speed (now realistic 6.6 m/s)

    It would have worked better if the game had a fatigue system. As for the question of custom walking speeds, sure let's give it a try. I use a custom model for my characters, it's model.id is KeeneCX_18

    Yes, I mainly play the Unité frigate. I had to sail dangerously close to them to get the close up screenshots. Needless to say my ship was utterly decimated and I had to reload a previous safe.

    The American ships are in fact three masted, fully rigged frigates. The model used for the American heavy frigate is based on the USS Constitution.

    Mod Release Double Running Speed (now realistic 6.6 m/s)

    Very interesting. Have you tried speeding up the walking speed as well? Personally, I like to walk everywhere for RP purposes but sometimes it just feels so damned slow.

    Screenshots thread

    Been a while guys but I got some new stuff to show. Most of the new screenshots are from a rather impressive encounter with an American patrol. I had to pull of some weird trickery to get some of these shots but I think it was worth it. The new screenshots, as well older ones can be found in a...

    Cannot Confirm Random Freezes

    A delayed update. After extensive testing, I have not encountered the issue again. Very weird. But oh well. I'll keep everyone posted if it returns.

    Cannot Confirm Random Freezes

    I had just set sail from Kingston Harbor. Now that you mention it, it does usually happen while out at sea. I can try and see if the issue comes back, I have had it on several save files already.

    Cannot Confirm Random Freezes

    I play in windowed mode. And no, nothing works on my keyboard. Even pressing something like Capslock is not detected by my PC when it happens. I don't think it's the same as the other two issues, since they seem to be able to close the game with the task manager, which I can't. These are the...

    Cannot Confirm Random Freezes

    Since two weeks or so I've been experienced some sudden freezes while playing Beta 4.1. The freezes are especially annoying because they freeze up my entire PC. Nothing works and I have to do a hard reboot to get it to work again. The Freezes are also unpredictable because they can happen...

    Glad you like the pictures. As for the question if I'd be willing to share them to Facebook...well I enjoy taking these screenshots but I'd prefer it not becoming a job or requirement for. It's just something I do for fun once in a while. Of course, you are free to share them yourself if you...

    Screenshots thread

    A shame it isn't on so much more ships, but I can understand the reasoning behind it. Anyway, I have tried my hand at photo editing some of my screenshots. Nothing major, mostly colour corrections and that sorta stuff. Decided to put them in an Imgur album so you guys here can see em. Tell me...

    Three questions

    I recall reading a post by Pieter not too long ago where he said that ship encounters at sea are indeed completely random.

    Screenshots thread

    Today I stumbled upon something unique. You are able to climb the rigging of the Unité class frigate (RN_Surprise) to get into the mainmast. I have checked the entire ship and this is only possible at the port side of the mainmast. It's the only ship I found that has this and I dunno if it's...

    Solved Naval officer promotion rewards

    Putting it like that, it does make a lot more sense. But isn't 200 men to man a 38 gun ship not a bit too low? From my own research, I recall that 38 gun frigates often had around 240-260 men on board.

    Solved Naval officer promotion rewards

    My main beef is that at rank 5 in the Colonial Powers era as a British naval officer, you get the 38-gun HMS Unicorn (Lyme Class Frigate). At rank 6 in the same era and as a British naval officer, you get the 32-gun HMS Surprise (Advanced Frigate). Going from 38 guns to 32 guns when being...

    Solved Naval officer promotion rewards

    If you go with the career option of Naval Officer, you get different ships awarded when you attain a certain rank. I'm personally a big fan of this type of gameplay and want to tingle a bit with it. Does anybody know in which file I can find and change the ships you are awarded at each different...

    May 21st, 1797, at six bells in the morning watch. The sun is just setting above HMS Greenwhich. Great way to start the day! :)
