Gun Pierson taught me to use a war canoe. I expressed doubt way back when and he pushed me into it. VERY smart move! Once you go small boats you love them!

IIRC, even Dave the Knave, the great advocate of the Ship of the Line, preferred canoes for regular use, and reserved the big ships for special occaisions.

I played this game all the way thru until age 80 one time. I finished up the game with eight Ships of the Line! I thought that was pretty cool.

Then there was Sparticus! He played a game 3384 years! He played at work for hours each day for years.

I watched a couple of folks stream the game on Twitch. It's pretty nice. The cel-shaded graphics still hold up today.

3384 years! 80 or 100 is doable, but 3384 years! That's insane!

'Tengelo' was a spammer. A week after making his post he edited it and inserted a link to a store. I banned him

Well, at least it had to do with aging parents rather than me or my wife. Something of the sort was to be expected sooner or later.


I too could not play any computer game for the last six months.
Mine was a personal problem. Starting fresh now!

Trying to get the game started up and attempting to patch some mods in...

Like:-
1) trying to use the HD texture from nexus mods...
2) getting the old mod manager 0.2.3 by K-bob to actually start up....
3) finding the old saved daughters/barmaids mods...
4) 1920x1080 full screen....failing that, probably windowed at whatever the max was....


How DID I play this game full screen last time...could have sworn I managed to do that with a 1920x1080 monitor...

We probably need to ask one of the administrators. Let me know what the choices in the poll should be, and I'll see if I can contact one of them over at hookedgamers.com

Very respectfully,

The Pirates! Gold remake, with minor improvements and better graphics, was released in 1993. An enhanced remake, also named Sid Meier's Pirates!,


Can we get this spam deleted, admin folk?
