Anyone mind to describe a bit more the game for someone that don't knows a shit about tit ?

It's about pirates ... ok, but after that ?
Adventure game ? Action ? RPG ?
Any freedom (like you can choose wich town you attack, what island you visit ...) or is it linear ? (you can't do much unless you follow the script.)

Also, how is it played ?

This game has everything.....adventure, action a bit of rpg and some arcade dance stuff Smile
You have pure freedom, which country to join (or being a pirate), what to do next.
Give it a try, it's worth it.

I dled from Pirate Bay and got two image files with no extension. As stated above when mounting windows won't read the files after they are mounted. I tried the reg fix in read me and it didn't help. Got a coaster when i tried to burn disk 1, can someone post the setting they used in alchohol (1.9.2.1705) they used to burn successfully?

That doesn't help a whole lot. I still need coffee, have I missed something obvious?

Oh, fuck. Ok, now I see what I missed. You think i was owned before, now the .sfv files don't seem to be there and the archives are broke.

1: Pirates is the "mother game" of games like Pirates of the Carribean or Port Royale 1+2 and Sid Maier invented the RPG +Action Sea Game Style! It´s one of the famoust game in the history of Computer Games!

2: u can´t burn this Alcohol Image and Play the Game from CD! This is only possible if u burn the Image on CD as an image ( not extracted)! Best way is to play it from HD with Daemon Tools mounting or Alcohol Mounting!!!

I heard that this is supposed to work with Daemon Tools, but it says "CD emulation software detected" or something like that. Btw, I haven't tried the registry hack since I can't find any such values in my registry.

For me it's Scsi port 1 not Scsi port 2, when i make the regtweak at Scsi port 1 it works.

For those having trouble with the REGEDIT -

I just set ALL SCSI ports to DENY even though I didnt have the value listed in the NFO. Worked fine for me. And stop burning it to a CD - simply use DAEMON TOOLS to mount the damn thing and then install from there. . .dunno why people still waste time with burning CD's for games.

As for the game - so much fun. Ship battles in the beginning are hella fun, when charging in and firing 11 cannons. . .BOOM!

This worked for me when I tried it! The instructions in the NFO did not.

Sid.Meiers.Pirates.CRACK.ONLY-IND


Strange, playing with aclohol sometimes the ship was navegating really slow (even tought it was marking 11 knots)

Now with the crack the game boots in a light speed, load in ligh speed and no more wrong knots marking... its more smooth... very strange....

But really nice Very Happy


PS: yep its no-cd

This is what I do, and it works just fine:

- Even though the game asks you to insert CD #1, you have to mount the image of the second (I'm using Daemon 3.47).
- Then I activate all the emulation options and run regedit.exe.
- I right click on "Scsi Port 2" and go to Permissions.
- Then I tick the second (unticked) "Read" box in the Administrators, hit Apply and OK (an entry in that folder will disappear, it's fine). Then I exit the Registry Editor.
- Then I double-click on the game's shortcut and it starts alright. Smile

I think the knots marking shows the wind speed not your ships speed.

This game isnt as good as Port Royale 2. I am playing on the hardest difficutly and its still way easy. The combat is plain and not much skill or tactics needed. Having to sail east is the most boring event in history.

The dancing was cool the first two times maybe after that its just a pain.

Theres no real good character development and politics are boring.

I had higher hopes for the sequel to the classic Pirates. Its fun for a while but could of been better.

I am running windows 2000 and am having trouble finding the permissions menu when I right click any folder or key in my registry. Is this an XP only fix or am I missing something? Any help is appreciated because I wanna play this junk BAD.
