Can you run dxDiag from the 'run' command in your start menu and post the results here? There are some older processors that Ageia doesn't support. I'm wondering if you have one of those.

Flag and sail processing isn't happening nearly as fast as anyone -- ANYONE -- wants, but it's still ongoing. We have very limited resources to throw at the problem right now, and all those resources have responsibilities outside of User Content reviews. It's not something that can be predicted like clockwork.

That said, we've acknowledged for some time that things aren't working as smoothely as we'd hoped, and once I get the approval from on high you'll get to read a devlog describing a bit more about User Content, where it is, and where it's going.

As has been pointed out, we have answered the question about why this game does not include slavery many times over.

These forums are not the place to discuss the historical and political issues surrounding slavery. I am closing this thread now.

I have just trimmed this thread down to remove the bits that were on fire. Please keep things civil or we'll be forced to get the padlock out

As this is a problem with missions and not User Content, I've moved this thread to the appropriate forum.

Nice work!

I've merged a couple of your threads, so you now have one place for all your flag and sail feedback/previews. Happy drawing!

Looking spectacular, what a comeback! Welcome back! Great render, too

I have just three quick comments:

1) You'll want to add a few feet to the topmasts to give them some overlap with the flagstaffs. The proportion would be about the same as the topmast - topgallant overlap.

2) Even if it will be bare, you might consider adding a mizzen flagstaff as well. At minimum, you'll want to add a truck (cap -- like on the stern flagstaff) to finish off the mizzen topmast.

3) The tiller would indeed come within a few feet of the quarterdeck rail, but keep in mind they rarely operated on a full sweep of the deck. The rudder in this period was confined to about a 60 degree sweep -- 30 degrees to either side.

It's better to check the damage done by using the tooltip over the armor facing instead of the floating damage numbers. There have been some problems with the numbers in the past.

This is universal.
