Hi all!
I am now downloading the new town resources and I wonder is it necessary to start a new game the changes to take effect or not?

Yes. It is necessary to start a new game.
Before set new town ON in options form

then I'll have the new ver. of the add-on installed.... since I have to start a new game anyways

I have a problem... yesterday I downloaded the last update of the add-on and new town resources. I started a new game after deleting all old savegames, changing all game parameters, controls, etc. and at the beginning I realised that all textures of the buildings (pirate, started on Nevis) are grey!!!???

Do you have manualy installed all resourses from .rar (23Mb)?
Or just run .exe?

New_towns is old install format. Must be set and unpack manualy

first, I manually unpacked "resources_town_c.rar" in /RESOURCES/TEXTURES folder, then ran "am_setup.exe". after unpacking it in the game root folder....

@ I manually unpacked "resources_town_c.rar" in /RESOURCES/TEXTURES@
it is incorrect

Need to unpacking it in the game root folder

How big advantage have a MOW-s (ascold quest) before gappling? Or is it a big secret?

Been enjoying the latest update. Level 37 already, I got both uninhabited islands colonized... but even with the Black Shark with augmented crew (nearly 1000 dudes) with heroic morale, not even a level 6 yacht with its crew reduced to, like, 2 dudes will surrender to me. Quite the opposite - they manage to kill half my crew between the two of them. Amazing. Is this a new "feature" of the update, that no one will ever surrender to you?

Also, I've noticed a couple quests I never saw before - Cortez' skeleton in the lost fort on IdM and the shopkeep's request for "mummy powder." The former opens a new quest entry, but is it really a quest? and is there really any mummy powder to be had anywhere in the archipelago? half the sreet merchants refuse to deal with me I've asked them so often...

You need to have ither Hero or FearOfSea reputation


Mummy powder is the start of very hard to pass quest. This quest has no tips. Street merchant can sell you powder, but which one, nobody knows.. random
Cortez is the part of another quest (Black Pearl)

, but is it really a quest? quote]
Yes, really. Cortez from Black Pearl quest (old),"mummy pouder" from Ascold's quest (new), but entry in Ascold's quest on Nevis

mmk, thanks, I'll keep asking the street merchants...

is the black pearl quest related to the incan temple at all? i see i still need some quest item to get into the alcove; is the item still available anywhere?

and I am a geroi. i've had only two ships surrender to me, a couple galleons...

Yes, you can find it in second level treasures (on map combined from 2 parts).

speaking of treasure, are the golden cuirass and killidge sword available in the regular treasure or only the samsa's treasure quest? i was disappointed by what i finally got for my trouble there, just a handful of gold nuggets and jewels but no good items.

Killdge available only in Samsa quest, but golden cuirass can be found in various places: treasures, English quest line etc

After visiting Morgans secretary i got a little idea. How about adding a NPC who change rare items.(no sell)
Right now i have lot of fine maps, Tanats, golden armors and blue skulls, but dont have killadge do hire
filosof. Even S/L magic dont work.

Yep that's my problem... there was no killidge in the chest for the Samsa treasure, or pink skull or golden cuirass.

2 Alan_Smithee It means that you've lost too much time after battle with the Black Shark!!! You have only 10 days to get to treasure, or else it transformates in to gems & rings rendomly.
Anyhow you won't find killidge there , its musketon (rifle), pink skull & golden cuirass.

Today i read about announce - SLB goes to Corsaires 3. (russian forum).
I can read a russian a bit, but not perfectly well, so i need to ask - The new SLB will be a new game (based on storm 2.5 engine, no need for Corsaires 3, AOP) or it will be add-on to the main game (corsaires 3 needed)
And i thankful for great game and accept my best wishes for a new project. Sorry my englich - its sucks.

Yes

Hi all,

It's been allmost a year since my last post. I have installed the latest version of SLiB and I have great fun playing the game. Great job !!! Very helpfull is also the english version of faqs.

I am playing using ЪлзйД character as Adventurer and having Nevis as a homeland. Now, I am at level 34 and I am facing some small "problems":

A. When I am capturing an enemy ship I can not assign a captain for it (I have at least 3 "First Mates" as officers) and I do not know what to do.

B. When I bought a second ship, I assigned a captain but I have not found where I can exchange goods between the two ships.

If somebody can give me some help please ...

Thanks in advance ...

You need first load minimum crew on captured ship


Press F2->Cargo->Select Second Ship->Between Two Buttons "Drop" & "Info" press the small one.

Dear Sir,
Next time when you have a question relevant to the SliB, be so kind to place it in the section "Questions about the game play". It is not desiarable to create other topics related to the same issues.
Thank you.

Hi all,

Sorry Strelok, I hadn't pay attention.

Thanks Navy for your help. As far as concern exchange goods between ships I am ok, but in order to assigne a captain to a captured ship I load minimum crew on captured ship and when I tried to assigne one of the "First Mates" officers the repective button it was not high-lighted. Is there a possibility that I have done something rong at the initial screen where you choose the difficulty level, Hardcore game etc?

Need some advise on what to do.

Thanks in advance

Do the following: first after capturing a ship shift a crew just a bit greater than a minimum one. The character you are going to appoint as a skipper MUST be a FIRST MATE (FIRST OFFICER, (первый помощник), not a quartermaster, cannoneer or anyone else). Also, there may be a question: how many ships do you have? If you have four ships you will not be able to appoint a new skipper to a captured ship. To appoint the skipper you must press button "character" (персонаж). The difficulty level is set up in the left upper corner in the game settings. They begin with "матрос" (sailor) and so on. Good luck!

Hi all,

I have some questions:

I assign an officer as a captain to a captured ship. How can I assign officers as "compagnions" of the new captain?

And if I manage to assign those officers:
1. Can I hire more officers in their place?
2. Their active perks affect the abilities of the assigned captain?

And finally, reading some topics at the forum I noticed that some mates reffer to "S/L magic". What is S/L magic and how it works?

Thanks in advance for your help mates.

You can use "Crago Exchange" interaface for it. In sea or on land.


Yes


It's "save and load" 'cause in the game many things works with random nambers, you can use S/L to try get more useful things or situations

Hi navy,

Thanks for your very-very fast replay.

I started a new topic by mistake and I when I was trying to add a fast reply to explain everythig were lost.

Thanks again

Ok, just a moderator's work

Hi mates.

Is it possible to finish the quests:

"Таинственная история мадам" and "Сокровища Изабеллы"

in version 1.06.0124?

Thanks in advance for the responses ...

No, it is not done

Unfortunately not, they are not finished in this version of Add-on. Perhaps, we shall wait for the declared K3 Add-on.

Hi mates,

I started a new game (Sailor level of difficulty) and I assigned to the main character the role of "secret agent".

As far as concern S.P.E.C.I.A.L., I made the following distribution: S=5, P=4, E=5, C=6, I=8, A=6, L=8.

My question is, shall I be able to open all personal and ship perks?

Thanks in advance for your responces.

You shal be able. They are subject to changes un the course of the game when yiou accumulate more skill and experience. Distribution you've made at the very beginning of the game is unchangable till the very end of the game and beginning of the new one. To open the perks you just click on their headings.

hi all,how increase very fast my money in game start?because it tooks very long time before you get enough...,maybe there is any secrets?

You can loan some or find loot on corpse
If you have ship yet take quest to delivery cargo, merchant or passangers. And will be a real pirate - take ships.

question about Corsairs Legend is back - how many questions is in history mini-quest(total). Questions about
years - born, died was easy part, whit russian typewriter i manage word Ямайка, but after Alexandre
Exquemelin i give up. Can someone give me a correct answers in russian or is this one of the game secrets.

It's not a secret, but public answers are not allowed this quest now only for russians. Answer in PM for this question.

Thanks for personal messages Navy and Nataniel.

I read about e new patch - Adventure Tales 1.3.2 - Black Mark Studio and noticed a option to download
a new feature - new fencing. What the new fencing means - that changes? Sorry about my bad englich.

Old fencing - when you strike NPC, he is jerking and can not to make a counterstrike.

With new fencing NPC jerks not often as earlier and you can not to clicked him up to death. NPC can make a counterstrike, even two counterstrikes in succession, when he is under your attack.
It means that new fencing is more difficult than old one, and you need to have a quick reaction to win.

But, did you install new fencing mod already?
You must feel the difference right away.
