at first: i have a problem with my original account currently. i don't know how to solve it and did not get an answer from an admin. i don't have access to my files, can't update and had to create a new account to write this...


The first problem I encountered was vastly increased loading times when loading a game from the start menu. This problem didn't occur prior to installing this mod, and it ceased upon uninstalling it. Another problem I encountered was the inability to actually sail. Despite having the latest OBSE, something just wasn't working. I read the book on how to sail a ship, waited endlessly for the two bells, but nothing happened. So, I was unable to sail.

Finally, I don't know if this was implemented because, as I say, I couldn't get the vessel to sail, but CLShade's Sailboats mod allows you to fast travel to any of three ports, which is a clever way of getting past the map limitations. As it stands now (if this feature isn't in fact included in your mod) we'll only be able to sail off the western coast, which doesn't make the mod very functional. Again, I could be wrong about this.


thank you for being so fair not to give this a thumbs down while in beta.

i'm pretty sure that it is impossible this mod increases load times. it does NOTHING on load. really nothing at all. the scripts start when you buy a ship.

did you try to leave and re-enter the ship? the detection may fail sometimes (1 out of 20 i guess) when you first enter the boat. if you use TCL it WON'T WORK!

there's a mod from onra: valenwood heightmap or something like this. with this you get a free seaway from anvil to leyawiin. with 'shipping in cyrodil' you can sail to the waterfront.


Where do you find this place? You have no location map or any reference of where to find it. Does anyone know?


if you read the readme or have a look at the screenshots you would know this. one of it es even named 'location'. already hundreds of people obviously found the location easily. you are the only one who did not.

so... is this really an issue of my mod, worth a THUMBS DOWN or more likely an issue at your side?

if i would answer this question i would certainly get damned.

so please: :wallbash:


As someone stated an option to fast travel from Anvil to Imperial city docks is kind of a must.
As well the ship models need a bit of work, I noticed you can't walk under some of the roofs your character instantly gets shot onto the roof.
Haven't been able to buy anything from Winried. Is there a certain time you can only buy items from him? HAven't been able to buy a ship either I only get normal dialogue from him.


winried, the vendor is open from 9am to 5pm only. i forgot to mention this, sorry...
the ship models have a problem with the collision. i know that, but still have no solution...
there won't be a fast travel option. use the above mentioned mods instead. future versions will have auto-travel with a mate. you can sleep while sailing which comes close to fast travel i think...

Could you add a Viking ship to you're mod? From mrSiikasBetterPorts LongshipExpansion.


i could. but i don't know what to do with the paddles...

You know why you deserved a thumbs down from me? I searched anvil for this dude and explored around, and I just couldn't find it. Your screenies were poor, and you just said "south anvil", which could be anywhere for all damn sakes. That's not the only problem - so once i couldn't find it i was going to PM you, but you had it set to off? This clearly shows you don't care about your mod and not willing to answer people's questions. Bad directions and bad contacting gave this a thumbs down for me.

I would advice to look over this and maybe learn from your mistakes next time.

By the way the only way i got it to work was by private messaging one of the members who got it to work successfully in the comment section. Can't believe i had to rely on a downloader instead of the orignial uploader himself.

south of anvil is not such a big area. but definitely not 'anywhere'.

i had a problem with my account. after changing the email address i did not get the validation email and i could not login or get PMs anymore. after waiting just 1 day (which is nothing!) for an answer from the admin i decided to create another account just to be able to answer the questions here quickly. but this was to late already. not even 24 hours later, not even my fault, after WEEKS of development... you give a thumbs down for a BETA version instead of helping to improve it?

so what does this 'clearly show'? the only thing this clearly shows: that you should play even more often with your joystick or get a girlfriend (if you are able to get one at all)...

things are not always as you expect because you can't always see everything. especially not you if you are not able to find such a big harbor.

so... do you want to rethink your answer?

and did you learn something from your mistake for the future?

of course you could say sorry now, but this would show us that you are a strong person who is able to stand straight although he did something really embarassing. but i guess you're not. you will just logout and enjoy the fruits of MY work. (i won't write here which animal's behaviour this is...) but i might be wrong...

So you gave it a thumbs down because you couldn't find it, when no-one else has had trouble with it, and when it is still a beta? And because you couldn't get an instant response, you decided that he doesn't care about the mod, or answering questions. Right. You are being a bit self-entitled, imho. He is a mod-maker, but he does it out of his own choice, not because we pay for it or anything like that. While mod-makers probably should support their mods, they are not obliged to, and if you'd waited a day, you could have talked to him. Not grounds for a thumbs down, surely, especially when it's in Beta.

Hi! I've a bug with this mod: I've lost my ship...
Yesterday I saved my game in the interior cell of the pirate ship (curious...), and reloaded it today...
My game loaded I tried to go out and: BUG! I was deep under the water, and my ship has disapeared! (invisible + no collision)
How could I take my ship back?

did using the door teleport you to the same location where you entered the cabin?
did you STOP the ship before entering the cabin?
are the sails and the doors still visible?

you could: 1. save the game while in the water and reload or 2. press left shift and F12 or 3. disable ALL mods and try it again.

Hi! Thanks for your help!

To make short:
- Yes, the door teleport me to the same location (it means, but it teleport me deeper: under water).
- Yes the ship was stopped before entering the cabin.
- No, when I gain the surface (water) the entire ship (sails, doors, ...) is invisible and have no collision.

Have an idea?
:)
