Few questions from newbie

Mat

Hi there! I've got problem with officers. I've got some not good officer (he is navigator or somebody). When I dismiss him (offcer), what should I do next to fire him totally? Because as I assume I must pay him, while he is a passenger (I don't want to know him no more;p). One more problem. At the start I'd like to mention that I've got level 4 character and use a corvette so I think it's good, but I've got problem with the first quest from french. It's the one where I must escort some guy (passenger called Pierre lagrange) on the beach. I've got 3 fighters, the passenger is with me but this 5 guys, I'm fighting against always kill me and my companions. Do you have some tips for me? When I capture a ship for example and I fight with crew and a captain I don't have the problem to kill them, but the guys on the beach are just too strong. I'm stuck on this. Any tips for that? Thanks for help:)
 
Level 4 is insufficient for steering a corvette(unless you have high navigation skill).
I don't remember the french quest line but pretty sure that quest fights are always hard as hell-you gotta have high weapon stats to win.
As for firing officers, either set them as a fighter then talk to them or go to sea press enter-go to cabin-walk in crew quarters and talk to desired officer, then fire him/her. :onya
 
Thanks a lot:). Btw could you recommend me a mod, that don't change the game stats etc. , just fix some bugs during quests?
 
You are welcome mate :onya

Well, CMV 3.1.5 is very good, it does not change any stats-but adds lots of new ships, trade-able goods, cannon types and afaik there is some tweak in cannon`s realism as well.
JSCombined is another good but somewhat smaller mod-I am not sure whether it is included or more like integrated into CMV 3.1.5:shrug

Bear in mind that both mod requires a new game(or do they?:rolleyes:)
 
I have a question about the officers since this is already talking about them.I gave my officer a better sword than the one he came with but he doesn't equip it :? also is there any way to change sails and emblems like in Aop Ct i got the Aop2 for a D2drive sight so i dont have a manual sorry if the questions have been asked many times.
 
You can't change emblem on sails (I don't think player ships have emblems at all, at least in vanilla)...

And as far as officers go, they don't always pick sword with bigger damage, but also take weight in consideration too - so sometimes they would pick sword with lower damage but lighter.
 
You should also look at what type of weapon they, the officers have more experience with, you could give them a good heavy sword and they favor medium weapons, so they would keep a worst medium or light weapon over the heavy one you gave them.
