An ambitious project

Sounds good to me, a simple virtual sailor.
But for Build 13 Update 4, perhaps we CAN replace as an advertisement for Build 14.

As for me working on Build 13 Update 4 instead of Build 14, that is not the case.
I haven't worked on ANYTHING for the past 4,5 months.
However, I will be back soon and will try to get this show on the road again.
But for that we might want to actually create some interest again
and we're not going to manage that with MORE unstable game versions.
Also Pirate_KK is working on Build 14 and I don't know how much I'll be able to help him with that. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

The reason for sticking with Alpha 8 is because there's nobody who could work on anything else.
A simple virtual sailor was too busy and Pirate_KK is having enough to do with just Build 14.
Hopefully I might be able to try and finish some of a simple virtual sailor's work soon though.

Build 12.1 is not unfinished and buggy!
And Build 13 Final IS finished; it's just not 100% stable.
 
Deep One: Ok well, that makes two of us - been 2 years in here and still trying to find my way around things <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Cheers, mate <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Also, you could let Build 14 Alpha 6 have a try. As far as I know, Morgan Terror is still playing that version. And he is VERY sensitive to bugs.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />

Pieter: Let alone the fact that you´re frequently present in here, makes a huge difference from not being here at all, I think.
But it´ll be good to have you back! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Dont know if its just me, but at the moment more stuff is being produced than ever, and everybody is very talented and creative to an extend, I´ve never seen before. Its just plain hard to be a cynic these days, I guess - ready to do some PR and make some interest for the Build Mod again, thats for sure! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Thanks Peter; I try to be as supportive as I still can.
Which, of course, turns out fairly useless considering I'm not doing much here. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
Know what? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />

Nnnaah.. he lookin' like a lily-livered swab to be any real threat. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> Nay, too scrappy to be an insult. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Actually, I didnt - but that vocab reminded me of someone familiar <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
You didn't know me? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Oh, well now you do. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
i haven't played b14a6 in a very long time. last time i played the game it was with b13 update 3 with a bunch of mods and fixes added on top. however, my game was more crash prone than others due to less than minimal system specs.
 
I made my own version of Build 14 based on Build 14 Alpha 5.

The main changes I made :

Removed direct sail.
Reset date to 1660.
Changed the nation relations as they are in Bartolomeu Main Quest.
installed the new towns version in Cuba, Hispaniola and Saint-Martin + nation texture system for them.(No AOP towns. I use for Tortuga and Guadeloupe the old ones with the nation texture system.
New 'Spanish Main Period' ships (Fast galleons, Heavy traders, Fleut5, GalleonC3, Batavia,Light Pinnaces and some others)
Removed almost all the corvettes and brigs.
New characters (new sailors + pirates from the SuperDurnius black officers).
New 'Spanish Main Period' soldiers and officers.
Blades from Sli KevinAtlanta.
Jetty-system.
New Flags.
Installed my main quest.

Next changes :

Adapting my main quest to that version.

BTW : Near Havana Church, I installed a tower for hanging (Good for Bartolomeu quest)
 
That sounds brilliant, Bartolomeu!
I think we need to make a Build 13 Update 4 and then your quest can be an additional download for that, overwriting the original.
Would be cool and we could use it to generate some more interest in the game again. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
 
Over the next two weeks, I can upload my version (without the ressource files in order to not have a too big download) for people interesting in that version.
 
That would be great, Bartolomeu.
If you don't add the resources,
can you please make a list of all that resources that are required so that people can install them manually?

I'll do. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
Otherwise, I continued to work on my Build version :

I finished to adapt my main quest. For instance, I use Marigot instead of Charlestown for the fight against Nathaniel.(But need to finish the idol quest shortly)

Missing man quest installed.

Silver train quest installed but need to adapt this quest. I will use Henry Morgan and Edwaert Mansveldt instead of Will Turner and Elisabeth Swann and Khael Road instead of Battle Rocks. I'll also use a new location : Tortuga Townhall.
After playing the silver train quest, Henry Morgan will be installed at Redmond as I did for Pieter at Douwesen.

New changes for the ships : Now, there is only 1 manowar in the game. It's the Manowar3, she's in the Havana port and she's the Spanish admiral ship.

I'll install a trade of captives at Tortuga : in fact, it will be the possibility of hiring captured officers and soldiers.
 
So you moved all quest events away from the locations not in Build 13? Good thinking!
I was actually wondering what we should do with that; to add those three new islands + Charlestown or not?
I prefer to keep those to Build 14, so your work here greatly helps with that! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
Possibly we CAN add the DirectSail mod, so then you can keep using Battle Rocks.
That might be preferrable over Khael Roa, because Khael Roa is already used for other things.
Personally I don't see much of a problem with using Will and Elizabeth. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
I do see a problem, it doesnt fit in the time period, because will and elizabeth are mid 18th century, Bartolomeu is almost a century earlier.
 
Good point. Consider me overruled. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />

In my version No AOP towns and New islands like Curacao. Example : for Pointe à Pitre, I use the old one and I've had to add a prison, a townhall for the santiago quest.

Same reply that Thomas. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
We are not in the same century. And Hourrra for Captain Morgan and Mansveldt <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
