The "New Horizons" mod for the 2003 Pirates of the Caribbean game by Akella is a continuation of the famous Build mod series. Developed as Pirates of the Caribbean Build 14, "New Horizons" continued where Build 13 left off, adding more new content than ever before.
Happily sailing around the Caribbean. During night and day, the steamships sail away!
beautiful screens!
Say is there any plans in keeping this Mod updated?
I mean.. is a team still working on this i really was hoping for some kind of storyline for the HMS Surprise
After we released Build 14 Beta 2.5 last week, we got to work on Beta 3 straight away. You can follow our progress here: Piratesahoy.net
You'd even be most welcome to join in, of course!
At the moment, we are mainly working on two things:
1. Sorting out still-standing gameplay issues and other bugs
2. Adapting some advanced interface code we have for the next release. Look forward to news on this soon, once we got a bit further with it.
I doubt a Master & Commander storyline is going to be made soon. We have two people working on storylines, but they both have their own stories to finish.
thank you very much for the answer. i am looking forward to it :)
"but they have their own stories to finish"
May I ask what are these stories, like, if there's a WIP somewhere, can't find it on Pirates Ahoy?
I'd love to test out steamships. Are they in the current version?
They most certainly are. They can be randomly encountered in the "Revolutions" and "Napoleonic" time periods for England, France and the United States. They are fairly rare though. They're also available for purchase from Hendrick Vanderdecken.
Let me know if you can't find them, and we'll speed you on your way. ;-)
