Gentlemen of Fortune: Historical Eras Module 2 Released!

[modernknight1]

ATTENTION: New version of mod RELEASED 11/29/13. This version is a little smaller at 5.2gb and includes Pieter's installer. Link follows.

After two years of development mostly by myself the GOF Era's Mod2 is finally finished and the mod is available for download here: http://www.piratesahoy.net/threads/gof-historical-eras-module-2.20344/

More links will be forthcoming and Pieter has made an auto installer that's bundled with the mod. So it can be manually installed if that's what you prefer or with the push of a button with Pieter's installer.

This mod embodies the spirit of the Golden Age from 1648-1725 with...

- 67 different player characters to choose from that are 95 percent real historical figures of that era.

- 81 blades and over 40 different pistol combinations to arm yourself with

- Over 50 new items including many that enhance your abilities like the manuals.

- 16 new ships and 70 percent of the old models reskinned for the Golden Age Era.

New weather, soldiers, music & sounds, interface details, and brothels.

Sorry it took so long. Enjoy! MK

I been waitin all me life fer this! Well kinda..
Will test as soon as I can. Congratz on the release MK
and power to the COAS modding!

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Congratulations, mate!

I have set up an "AoP 2: CoAS" news category, so we can group this together with any other related news we might have at some point.

It's great to finally see this mod released! You should be proud of yourself, MK.

I'd like to add some "Quick links" for this mod to the forum's sliding banner, just like I did for HoO and PotC.
Does anyone have the GOF logo for this? And some key links, other than the download, to be included?

Good idea!

I wished I could help you with the files you need though, but I don't have them available right now.

Or maybe Eras calls for a new logo, if anyone has the time? This is a pretty big deal, after all. I just don't know who would do it.

You want that I fall in love, mateys?
This marvelous "musica da camera" (XVIII century concert music) take my heart!
Sorry but I don't know the translation for the word, here is called "musica da camera" = room music. Haendel, Bach, Mozart, Paganini, and so on

 

[Pieter Boelen]

I think the English word is "chamber music".

 

[Ambrose LeGaillard]

well, I literally adore the chamber music.
My delight in Sid Meier Pirates! was the music...
..................and my cross was the ball....sigh...

Update V2 and a new LAi_boarding file are now available on first post here: http://www.piratesahoy.net/threads/gof-historical-eras-module-2.20344/

The new LAi_boarding file MUST be added to your game for Surrender and Boarding to work correctly. You will have to start a new game. Sorry!

MK

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Has anyone tried my installer EXE yet? Does it work at all? If it does, we can add the update files in there so it becomes a single-step installation again.

I will only be around for one more week, so this will have to be sorted out soon.

 

[Hylie Pistof]

Eh? I have the attention span and memory of a fruit fly. You made an installer?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Yep. See here: http://www.piratesahoy.net/threads/gof-historical-eras-module-2.20344/page-11#post-468326
It works the same as the latest PotC ones. I have zero clue if it actually works though as I haven't gotten around to actually downloading the Eras mod.

New version of mod RELEASED with Pieter's installer included. See updated link information at beginning of article. MK

 

[Hylie Pistof]

This is an early treat! This will replace the current ERAS, correct?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

This will replace the current ERAS, correct?
