    Unconfirmed Bug Consistent CTD when going to sea after visiting follower ship's deck

    I did indeed download the latest version: Build 14b FINAL from moddb, then the 1st jan update dated from april 27th. My main menu screen reports it's the 2st Jan update version, and in my download history I do indeed have post_1Jan_updates_270422 as the only update.

    Unconfirmed Bug Consistent CTD when going to sea after visiting follower ship's deck

    Here are the compile and system logs; no error.log is generated. Steps: 1. Moor. 2. Fast travel to other ship's deck. 3. Fast travel to shore -> CTD. My original discovery was that Mooring, fast traveling to other ship's deck, then fast traveling back to mine, then going to sea CTDs too. In...

    Unconfirmed Bug Consistent CTD when going to sea after visiting follower ship's deck

    I’ll go get it tomorrow, sure. BTW, having tested some more while moored on a shore, I’m 90% confident that the problem is if you go from one ship’s deck directly to the other’s; if you do, then next time you either go ashore or to sea, the game will CTD. I’ve had to moor, go asher, go to ship...

    Unconfirmed Bug Consistent CTD when going to sea after visiting follower ship's deck

    Found a consistent CTD. Attached are the save and my InternalSettings.h (modified a fair bit, including enabling big sea for Realism mode). Steps to reproduce after loading the save: 1. Go to deck. 2. Go to follower ship's deck (an escortee from a tavern escort quest). 3. Go back to...

    Need Help Bell ringing and driving me crazy

    Out of curiosity, when are bells supposed to ring? I'd understand if they rang every in-game hour, but the damn bastards ring every 15 to 45 in-game without a clear pattern, which at 20x speed translates to up to every one to five seconds.

    Some suggestions for Directsail

    Yeah, the date advance on the hour happens only if you're playing with the small map. setting OPEN_SEA_MOD to 1 plays much better. Now what I know would improve my DirectSail experience is if that stupid loud bell wasn't ringing every couple of seconds when sailing at 20x speed. I'd rather...

    Not a Bug Cannot get rid of last crew member assigned to land bodyguard duty.

    Steps to reproduce: 1. Talk to walking crew member on deck, ask for a land party. 1, 2 or 3 crew members; it doesn't matter. 2. Go to port, or anywhere on land where the land party follows you to. 3. Talk each of them and tell them to reurn to the ship. They seem to do so, and run to a near...

    Unconfirmed Bug Setting PRECHARGE to 0 makes you reload gun on game load

    The PRECHARGE variable in InternalSettings.h is supposed to have the following efect: If 1 (default): Newly-equipped guns are already loaded and ready to fire. Notably, this allows you to fire a gun, then equip another gun (via hotkey or not) and fire it immedieately, then equip the first...

    Guide Installing New Horizons for Laptops with two GPU's

    Soooooo, what the custom d3d8.dll does is simply "force your game to use the GPU that's not Intel Graphics", right? That worked fine enough for me in the past, but my new laptop's integrated graphics chipset is an "AMD Radeon (TM) Graphics", not an Intel, and the custom wrapper does not seem to...

    Confirmed Bug "Master at Arms" missing from Change Officer's Role list.

    I can confirm that "Remove from post" still turns them into a "sailor" on a fresh installation consisting of: installing base game -> Build14_installer_25052018.exe (with b14_beta4_final.tar present; checked Widescreen Textures and ENB) -> the custom d3d8.dll to make it use the dedicated GPU in...

    Unconfirmed Bug Changing ITEM_REALISM only takes effect on new game.

    The result of the bonus is still displayed on your stats summary though.

    Discussion A few questions

    Have you followee this guide for dual integrated+dedicated setups? PotC can resist most attempts to force it to use the dedicated card unless you do.

    Discussion A few questions

    Sounds like a possible problem to me. Do you actually have an integrated graphics chip? If you only have dedicated video card, reinstall without the intel graphics fix.

    Confirmed Bug "Master at Arms" missing from Change Officer's Role list.

    That just turns them into a non-contributing sailor.

    Confirmed Bug "Master at Arms" missing from Change Officer's Role list.

    So I found out today that Master at Arms is an officer role, contributing only the Grappling stat and boarding-related skills. AFAIK an officer can only be a Master at Arms if that's the role they were hired as (the one they say they are good at during the job interview), as Master at Arms is...

    Cooking with Albatross

    Just keep it in your ship's chest (the cargo hold's, not the cabin's). Things stuffed in there won't give you any buffs/penalties. Alternatively - @Grey Roger , would it be possible to extend the check to see if the book is in the surgeon's inventory, or whoever officer's that can apply...

    Discussion A few questions

    You can also play with the larger DirectSail map (and the slowed down passage of days) in Realism (or even Arcade) mode if you manually set #define OPEN_SEA_MOD 1 // BOOL - 1=ON - Worldmap enlarged for realistic DirectSail in InternalSettings.h Note that with DirectSail...

    Unconfirmed Bug Changing ITEM_REALISM only takes effect on new game.

    Changing the ITEM_REALISM setting in InternalSettings.h will not take effect in previously existing games. I've tested it both ways - in a Realistic Mode game I accidentally started wtih it off I would always get the bonus from an emerald as long as I had it on me or the captain's cabin chest...

    Unconfirmed Bug Reading a book unequips items equipped just before that

    Should it be added to Engine Limitation - List of Known Bugs that Cannot be Fixed then?

    Unconfirmed Bug Reading a book unequips items equipped just before that

    Open inventory. Equip weapon(s) and/or item(s) (Saber, Normal Compass and Watch, in my place). Read a book (the one giving Advanced (sword) Defense in my case). Exit the reading (press the Exit button at the top right). You are back at the inventory, but all the items that you equipped in this...
