HUGE update. I merged both versions of this crap to use this one instead. make it easy for me to update quickly. also, the hackery type shit is seperately done by the priest in bassa terra

i might make a version without church stuff but keeping starting gear and loan ect as it was years ago. i was curious what people think on the idea?

so far i found out an update to the game recently changed the file this edits. if i get a chance ill fix it this weekend. sorry for any issues if any exists

just 5

will this work on the 4.0 as well or just 5.0

i made a new version using a custom npc instead of base game one, to futureproof stuff and make it easier for me to update as game updates. I will update this and new version until such a time as updating becomes a hassle for this one, due to base game files being overwritten.

Well, hope is free and infinite so let's just keep hoping. Thing might turn out to be better unexpectedly one day. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst and things will go smoothly no matter which direction.

shes lived a good life, would love for her to live a long time, but she is 76 and aint as strong as she once was. i love her, and thanks for the well wishes.

Well, i hope she can hold out for new method to deal with cancer or at least lived a fulfilled and happy life when she departs. Hope you are doing well too.

hat thing is up

still trying to also figure out how to slot in all hats into this

it means i had some time to kill to fix a few bugs waiting for her hip surgery to finish. her cancer caused her hip to weaken and fracture. i do not want to go into details on her medical stuff, but hip seems to be causing her less pain, she is getting help to walk, but shes still gonna die from the cancer unless a miracle occurs.

April 6 has an update for the mod, hope this mean your mom is doing well.

I’m sorry to hear that. Good health to your mom.

sorry to hear that man... Good health to your mom. You should drop a "buy me a coffee" link, so people that likes your content donate what they wish.

my mother's cancer takes priority to me. sorry, it will be delayed until things are more stable with my family

Any update on getting the hats in?

i dunno if ill do maps, i got too much stuff in life to deal with as is

In addition to hats. An option to get a few treasure maps would be nice.

no clue why you would not start with anything without dlc. ill look into it

oh, for reference i don't have any DLC's i forgot to tell.

as for ships they are meant to be better upgrades over base models

its working for me at this time

ill look into it. freeplay or story?

for me it is not spawning the right ships and not giving all the options of ships that it is on beunua.c file. Like... "lugger" it is spawning courier.

Hello, the start game is not initiating with the first good equipement nor the initial level boost. My suggestions would be to spawn bot officer and main character with all perk skills unlocked.

Awesome, thanks for your hard work. Of course Admiral hat is the one I’m most interested in haha.

updated. if any issues arrise, let me know. it worked on my end, but i have no clue what issues people might find if any exist.

likely tommorows except admiral hat. i need to figure out a way to implement them

Will hats be included in tonight's update?

slight delay in update. i will post and update tonight, but it will not include dlc gun upgrades in dlc owned section thing until i figure out how that works, so i do not break anything. sorry for the inconvenience. rest of update coming soon

fixed leveling bug by lowering stats at start. sorry for any issues

i will likely do hats, not clue on ships but its possible

Possible to add the remaining battleships and hats(when they formally go live, in beta right now)?

i added a betas version that can be manually swapped out in folder directory so you can swap out main branch files with ones in a .zip called SmartStartModCaribbeanLegend_137_beta.zip and if you do, it will work with the movement beta update

I might make a beta one soon but my router died so I will be unable to upload it until I get a new one

Could we get a version for 1.3.7 beta and also could you add all the unique quest ships like Caleuche?

due to now using beta version of game, all future updates and additions will occur when its main branch, to prevent issues with compatibility. i apologize for this. regardless, enjoy all the typos until then :)

i hate dyslexia

i just added a feature to check how many subhumans and people you have murdered over time. it is fully tested but if there are any issues lemme know. i might miss something

ew www. ... a dutch "person" has appeared and tainted this mod page with its comment. i am truly appalled such a degenerate dutch vermin could be allowed near human tech such as a computer to even post such drivel upon this once pristine mod page. i shall honor it one day for its brazen act of evil with a dutch officer in this game, since i must commemorate such extremist acts of acting dutch

As a Dutch animal, i'll have you know we wash regularly!

the error in the story start in prison is gone for me . thanks for the quick fix

and to explain the bug for those curious, the issue was logged as

[2025-02-21 17:39:48.559] [error] [error] RUNTIME ERROR in quests\english\reaction_functions.c(3305): function 'Puancie_InJail' stack error
[2025-02-21 17:39:52.374] [error] [error] COMPILE ERROR in dialogs\english\Governor\Puancie.c(356): function Notification(args:2) doesnt accept 1 arguments


aka, i fucked up a line

i think i fixed it. my mistake. this is what happens when i stay up all night multiple nights. ill lay off updates until i get some good sleep. any critical bugs like before will be fixed. sorry for that

from going to get sent to jail to talk to poincy

i just also noticed a crash at story start. first time ive ever gottten it, so i will look into it now. sorry for anyone who got it too

i might. i might not. the issue is the officers i made all use same file, and my terrible code skills are making adding more a nightmare. i do think i should add two more, a brit and a filthy duch animal, but i have no clue if i will

fantastic mod. Could we possibly have more ship options to add and an English Officer to hire?

Thank you Eagle Scout, MOD exceptional: easy to edit and does not imply exceptional file editing skills.

start a new game and crash when Chevalier de Pointy come in prison to speak to you ( no dialog option and CTD after a few seconds )
