    Thanks ASVS :onya2

    Return of the Legend Location Files

    Don't quite understand this one - but I have added locators to the apothecary in Bridgetown (Greenford [?]) for the Hornblower card game - so if anything changes let me know. or if I'm just blundering about in a sea fog, you can tell me that too. :shrug

    Trading missions

    I need to finish the next chapter of Hornblower (hopefully before you upload the next patch) then I could have a look at it.

    We Have the Storm Engine!

    That is how I read it (translated the writer's meaning) - Good catch Inez. :onya2

    Trading missions

    Here is a suggestion: I have to use a LOT of generalisation here, so let’s not get into nit picking. As a general statement: An ounce of gold is sufficient for a man to but a complete set of GOOD clothes. This is true and recorded from Shakespearian times (1564 on) through...

    Features of the Build Mod

    Here is my sixpenny worth - but please note: I am currently working on finishing up to the point of Hornblower and Maria getting married. (Loyalty) So it depends when I finish and you upload, as to how complete that is. [The next addition will be "Duty"]  Hornblower • Naval...

    Trading missions

    As time permits, I will look at the merchant "giving you some hints" maybe just on a few items to start, just to see how much code is involved. Question: Are the prices of goods at each location static? i.e. gold is ALWAYS cheaper at a particular location? I know the price changes locally as...

    Pennants, Shovels and axes

    Not that much of an issue - historically they were probably down graded from a "specific" use, to general use anyway as the niceties of the rules of war, were, as time progressed, gradually ignored anyway. Stay with what you have. It's the shovels that really bother me - and it seems I'm in the...

    Pennants, Shovels and axes

    O.K. so maybe I'm getting picky here, as I DO like the pennants, (a lot) BUT isn't the one on the British ships the one for prayer service in progress? The design is one of historic note in that it is the St. George's cross from the British commissioning pennant combined with the Dutch...

    Trading missions

    I like this idea. I never was happy about the unrealistic time constraint, although I appreciate the the modders, at that time, were just spicing the game up. Also from my point of view, you would know where to transport what, (i.e. where the best price was being paid), from gossip in the...

    STORM modeling team

    COUNT ME IN! :onya2 I am STILL hoping that someone can help me with the "conversion back" for characters. I am quite good at Maya and Blender now - it is just the conversion in TOOL (or where ever) that has me stuck. But, yes - location are of interest too. Writing Quests becomes problematic...

    Achtung storyline writers!

    I've settled on a location in Cuba for now that seems to fit the story quite well with a meeting with the Spanish and French, (considering all these adventure were supposed to be in Europe in the first place. :rotfl ) Re "teaser" announcements - no problem with that either, perhaps under the...

    Hornblower Problem Build 14 Beta 1

    Got it to happen to me now - and I believe I have it sorted. I will include the code in the next update.

    Achtung storyline writers!

    I am working on a considerable extension to the Hornblower storyline (again with the 95th rifles). I have also revamped a LOT of the characters. My issue is similar to Captain Maggee - I know what I want to do - but it doesn't always work out. For instance right now I need a French or Spanish...

    Hornblower Problem Build 14 Beta 1

    Using (b) at the moment Pieter Boelen, on 27 January 2010 - 02:11 AM, said: I thought you had that remaining-officer problem fixed a long time ago? You mentioned it to me and I thought my suggestions had worked? Apparently not. No Pieter, your suggestion DID DOES work very well until now...

    Hornblower Problem Build 14 Beta 1

    Yes - I totally agree. (Yes he was wounded in Antigua). That is the line of thought I am following.

    Hornblower Problem Build 14 Beta 1

    Firstly, THANKS for taking the trouble to do the testing and put this up. :onya2 You seem to have found them all. :onya2 Noted - I will address that. Already cleared in the story extension I am working on. VERY ODD - never seen that - and I have played that part many, many times - I will...
