No movement on weddings, but check out the new In concept forum for a project we started today, the Pirate Plunder.

1 in thread When is the memory leak going to be fixed? [Known Issues / Troubleshooting]
It may be fixed on Tuesday. We have a number of memory leaks that were fixed in the 1.2 build. What I'm not sure about is whether we fixed your specific memory leak.

The question was when is it expected to be fixed.

I would guess "not soon" as it has been known about for weeks or is it months now?

1 in thread When are you going to stop changing game? [Ask an FLS Developer!]
Not really, though it can seem like that. We're shooting for one month release schedules, and yes, there will be some major changes. We do like to listen to our community, and sometimes we wind up agreeing with them, but I can assure that we don't just go based on whines.

It's definitely a problem. We have plans for more extensive server victory rewards, but I don't know where they are on the schedule off the top of my head.

And completely outside of my ability to answer. I'll forward this on.

1 in thread Trouble running PotBS under Boot camp [Known Issues / Troubleshooting]
We have an iMac with an ATI in house (we used to regularly test it on it). We'll take a spin with it and see what happens. What driver version are you using?

1 in thread What is "Testserver Discussion"? [Test Server Discussion]
This forum area is devoted to discussing the Milestones that have been published to the test server, known as Testbed. Testbed is where our combined ideas come to life, where players can actually touch and feel the ideas that have made it through the development process, and the Testserver Discussion forum and share their individual approval (or disdain, as the case may be) of the new game features and changes to be introduced in the latest patch.

This is the last stop on the journey before our combined ideas become reality on the live game servers.

Enjoy, won't you?

1 in thread What is "Milestone Discussion"? [Milestone Discussion]
Flying Lab Software plans our new game features and changes many months in advance, publishing these changes like chapters in a book, or as we call them, Milestones. This forum area not only gives our fans a look into the future of Pirates of the Burning Sea, but gives them a chance to weigh in on the changes to come. Not all features may be published in the Milestone Discussion area, and we will reserve the right to hold back plotline spoilers, exploit tools and other information as we see fit. Our Milestones are always published to Testbed before they go live, so naturally this dialogue will evolve into the Testserver Discussion area.

Enjoy, won't you?

1 in thread More smoke? [Community Suggestions]
It's expensive, as was noted earlier. As a graphic element that could be turned on and scaled dynamically, but it's a lot of work to do it in effectively two different ways.

1 in thread What is "In Concept"? [In Concept]
This is truly the Red Circle of the brainstorm forums. While fans will be able to post to new threads created in the In Concept forum, All of the threads in this forum area will be either created by us based on ideas from the Community Suggestions area, or new game features that are currently under review by the Pirates of the Burning Sea development team for inclusion in the game world. While we invite discussion and debate within the In Concept forum area, only members of the Flying Lab Software development team will have the power to accept or pass on the ideas presented.

It is important to note that while many ideas may make it to this level in the consideration process, not all the ideas presented in this forum will see the light of day. Remember, if an idea isn’t chosen to move on to the next round: There's no crying in the red circle. However, if an idea does make it to the next round, then it moves on to the Milestone Discussion forum area.

Enjoy, won't you?
