Testing for GOF | Locked | |

Gents, Lets keep our testing for GOF going here. We can share and upload/download files on some other services. I have memberships to a couple. I am still working on the 01 May version, because I haven't been able to find Luke's exe on the FTP.. BTW the old FTP seems to still be working. I found a bug with the Heacy Xebec. It has no cargo hold numbers set, so wont shoot and when you take the ship there's no way to put food on board or anything else. Will change in the ships init file. MK |

You need to find out which ships cause the beeping, then not include the recent modifications because that must've been what caused the problem. We've had it with PotC also. Sometimes the TOOL messes up, especially with certain ships. Seems random though. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |

This is the problem though, i think it will be around 50% of the ships that now beep. |

That is... not good. You might want to consider restoring all those ships to their previous unmodified versions. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |

Ok guy's i don't know if you ever saw this but not long after been added to the modding group on PA i started a forum up to back up things, for personal use. I never expected that i would be posting a link to the site because of the problems we have had. But for those who want to get anything like walkthroughs etc then feel free to go to this site and get the info you need. Thepiratestavern.zaphod3.myfastforum.org Edited by: Luke159 |

I only started getting the beeping when I got the 32 Gun Frigate. After I got a different ship it went away. So there's one ship issue that's known...out of like what 100? |

Luke, Can you please reload part one of your three part GOF upload to Megaupload. There is apparently a corruption problem with Part 1. Thanks MK |
||

Hey MK, i downloaded all the parts after uploading them and had no problems, sometimes though (more so on large files) they get currupt when downloading so i suggest downloading the part again bud and that should fix the problem. |

Here is the list of all the 'beeping' ships. Not only do they beep when you are the captain of the affected vessel, but also when it appears in combat, or part of your fleet. Note: This list is not quite complete. 10 ships or so have not been checked. Class 6 Class 5 Class 4 Class 3 Class 2 |

Here is the link to part one of the GOF 1.0 upload Megaupload.com Does is work for anyone else? I have tried for two days to download it with no luck. Is there a better link. I'm at a loss and so want to play??? MK I'm outa the picture until someone gives me a downloadable exe There is an error (error 503) in part one of Luke's Megaupload files. It is not downloadable. Peace out. Have fun. Would have been a great day to test GOF. Oh well, I'll be on Steam in the PA community there playing the Floris mod for Mount and Blade if anyone wants me. I'll check back in a few days. MK |

For your information, Keith is working on getting the PA! site sorted out. I've been reading through the forum and would like to mention that I doubt it makes much of a difference whether we're trying to do a PotC Build release or a CoAS modpack release. Keith has always been very interested in moving forward and although my main focus is on the PotC Build, you should know by now I HAVE tried to support CoAS also. Additionally, I added the main CoAS modders to my PM conversation with Keith so you can see what I have tried and also pitch in yourself. Feel free to do so. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |

But, I haven't got the pirates ahoy ftp account details any more. Can someone post em here? or email em to me at pirates(at)tarsiercomputing(dot)com Anyway here the list of changes I've made: Fixes: - And the big one: |

That sounds great, mate! Would you, by any chance, be able to look at my "national ship" code as well and work your magic on that? Please see your ModDB PMs for the FTP login details. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |

Sure Pieter, Though what and where is the national ship code? |

See my posts here: Forum.piratesahoy.net It's also included in the file I just uploaded to the CoAS FTP in Luke159's folder named "coas_mainmenu.exe" . -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |
||
May 31 2011 Anchor | ||
Ok, the changes are up on the COAS ftp site. File: I'm still getting "Board down" from the piratesahoy,net link, so I can't see the details. but I'll have a look at that file. Edited by: belthorne |

Too bad on the board link; strangely enough, it sort-of works for me. Anyway, using WinMerge on my file should give you a pretty good idea of what it is. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |

Ok, I've put in a couple of little fixes to my new option code. I've also included code passed to me by Pieter. Pieter, your Nation dependent code looks ok to me. There was a bug with the new ship "Derfflinger" where it was missing it's entry in ships.h. Edited by: belthorne |

Very true. We're also going to have to put a failsafe in there, to take care of when the code cannot find a ship type quick enough. In PotC, until I rewrote it today, it would select the player ship after a hundred tries, for example. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |
||
May 31 2011 Anchor | ||
That shouldn't be a problem with this code I don't think. |

You're sure? At least with the PotC edition of the code, sometimes no ship is found. -- Pirates of the Caribbean: New Horizons News and Downloads |
