Does any one have a problem boarding ships ? I know this bug has something to do with the surrender mod or talking with other ship mod but I added the LAi_boarding.c fix that MK has made in the first post but still nothing works. (this issue happens to me with some ships even after they surrender and wait for me to board them) but if I leave them and decide to board another ship the board icon appears and I can board them normally whether they surrender or still fighting. I have tried it several times and this bug happens to me randomly most of the time. I tried to play a new game, re-installed the game several times ,and didn't switch the surrender mod on. the bug wont appear at the beginning, but when I start playing through the game the bug will start happening.
 
I have another bugs like coloring the sails it works normally but after a while the sails turn back to its stock color and I have the cannon bug when I remove them they won't instead removing the cannons gives me new ones in the ship hold. these two bugs happens to me with the Holland frigate. but the surrender bug happens to me with the Holland frigate and other ships like the Adventure frigate, Fast Galleon and the nameless ship that I get when I start playing with Nathaniel Hawk (wind chaser) and other ships that I don't remember
 
To Vahadar
I found a leadership +10 book in Bermuda but my leadership is still (-7) 8
That ought to change the number -7 to +3 if it works properly.
Change the boat to see without the malus, hire an officer and give the books to him to see if they work for him.

When you say inventory do you by any chance mean the chests on your boat? You have to carry them on you.

If you carry them on you (you can see them in your ITEMS list), it looks buggy to me. I am no expert at this though and the extent of my knowledge about this ends here, so I am sorry I can't help you further except to suggest a re-install.
Installing GOF eras might have mixed with some residual files from the former mod, always install outside of program files if you are a windows 7 user.

There is a good chance I am overlooking something, someone else might give you some good pointers.

You have to start a new game after applying the LAi_boarding fix in order for surrender and boarding to work. It is not part of the reinit function. Colored sails is not something I am planning to implement. There are only a few historical examples on kings ships and they would have been extremely expensive to maintain. I need to write the option out of the game so that folks aren't confused. There are few ships that have the cannon bug and I will have all of those fixed in the next release. Last as someone else commented you need to make certain that you don't have the manuals restricted in mod options. You DO have to carry them on your person to enjoy their beneficial effects.

The starting ship with no name is an accident that I was testing and unintentionally left in place. It will have a name. Also where you get that ugly early high sterned French corvette, you should be getting the Coastal sailboat (Barca Costera), getting that ship is a kind of cheat and a penalty as it will degrade your skills. When you start a new game. you should sell its cargo and the ship and replace with a lesser ship..... until the next version is out.

This is beta and still has a lot of stuff to fix and the next version will have a lot of new content.

Thanks MK I know the game is still in beta but the game is still playable and its too awesome because eras contains allot of cool ships and allot of cool mod that made the game way more realistic and fun.
 
Im new here, and just downloaded and installed the mod from the 1st link on page 1

"New version of MOD RELEASED 11/29/13: https://www.mediafire.com/?tla44f2ugu4169g"
and also the black screen fix as i was running into that, but since installing the mod, im finding a lot of the ships all have missing textures, sometimes the whole ship, other times just the hull, or a few masts or keel thats untextured. Such as the almirante galeon, atlantic merchantman, heavy galeoth even the ketch.

I seem to be able to see more textures once im in 1st person sailing mode (i.e. avatar on deck) some ships then appear fully textured or missing just off a couple surfaces.

Any ideas or pointers as to what it might be or how to fix it, its not gamebreaking i'd just rather see the ships. Thanks :)
 
Oh, I left My Info filled not correct. Going to sleep while making a membership to piratesahoy, and voila I'm a female(of course not) aha ha ha
any way, thanks MK for information. Thumbs UP for the Mod.

Oh, one thing MK, could you rerelease the mod in patch or stuffs? cuz though I quite understand how hard to upload >5gb, it is pain in the a*s to download it :p
Best Regards!! :D

:ahoy

At first I thought it could be a bad download, but no, if you can see them better in first person it suggests something else is wrong. How up to date is your hardware?
 
can someone tell me what exactly does the realistic ship encounter and purchase do because I don't understand the instructions in the mod section.
and at the ship purchased what does it mean that the shipyard sell only ships that realistically have ?
 
Realistic encounters keep you from being absolutely obliterated by a random convoy of 6 1st rate ship of the lines.

Purchases just make stuff cost realistic prices.

The other one means small town shipyards won't have extremely large warships
 
Hello,

Seems there is a bug with the cells of the shop in St Martin and the tavern in Le François. Each time i try to enter i have a black screen and nothing else. Only way is to reload game to get unstuck.

edit : nvm few lines above i'm reading about a black screen fix will try to find it

This has been answered several times if you read the primary release post. You need to install the texture pack for locations which is appro 1 GB and reload you last save. MK fixed this back in Nov.

Cheers!
 
Hello from Russia! I do not speak English very well. Could you specify a separate message download links for the game. Please fill in all you need to download, including an update for the game. Or maybe there is a torrent with this game? Thank you.
 
MK I have noticed that the item "Hour-Glass" don't show its full details at the store because the details is too long. I don't know if you noticed this issue or not but I didn't find any one talking about it so I decided to tell you to see if there are other items has the same problem with it or not, to fix it in the next version of eras.


Edit: oh but the details of the Hour-Glass shows in full in my inventory. I noticed this issue because I was gonna sell the Hour-Glass by mistake but remembers that it gives me +30 leadership.
 
Please save the files for download on the internet resource with reloading. I'd like to download this mod.No I have not a very fast internet.
 
Hello,

It seems the deck view on the vessel English 64 Gunner (tier 3 ship) is glitched. You start in first ship view inside the structure and cant walk the ship normally, a bit problematic when you are fighting yourself aiming with guns ;)

Also maybe some ship description are messed? For exemple the description for the Carrack (tier 4) which read the description of a Galleon when you right click it, or the Patrulla Galleon (tier 4) which read the description of the Queen Anne's revenge which was a frigate. Just for cosmetic purpose i guess ;)

I really enjoy this mod, the number of available ship is awome!

edit : does the Lantern clock is supposed to give bonus?

If you meant by the internet resource with reloading that the connection cuts of while downloading the game then I recommend you download an application that manage the downloading like Internet download manager or an application like it that helps resuming the download when the internet connection cut of.
