Modding Support

No clue if it's something that's even possible with the game engine, but it would be kind of cool if there was a Steam Workshop for Sailing Era. Being able to add additional crew members, new ship designs, or even entirely new ports would be great.

Just a thought! Is a game like this moddable?

i was hoping for the same, game just released, and doesnt seem to be very popular, but hopefully we see some mods popping out after a bit, no clue if its moddable tho, someone else will have to answer that
I see that its a unity game so hopefully its moddable

edit
checked it out and all the .bundle files are encrypted, that might be a small setback

Would be awesome to see fanmade variants of ships for example.

more barmaids. theres an extreme lack of them outside of Europe, making it a bit boring.

Would be fun to have more custom crewmembers, especially outside Europe. Also some more locations.

kinda biased to modding really: first off, i do understand where you're coming from and i couldn't agree more on the topics like "more barmaids" or custom built ships, so long as it's within reasonable limits.

that's mainly due to the reputation of some modders out there (concerning other games) going stupidly overboard and probably creating a sloop or caravel carrying 20 guns, 100+ cargo , 40 crew positions and doing 60 knots out on the water. and that would make it literally pointless to even play the game anymore since that would be just about having one ship ready to crush the entire spanish and portuguese navy combined and rip through a full fleet of top tier battleships like a knife through butter.

thanks but no thanks.

I just want to be able to mod the text files to improve the translation, tutorial and quest instructions especially...

Brrr no idea on this one.

To my best guess the game was written/compiled in the Unity game engine or some variant of it, so it could be worth taking a shot at looking in various game coding forums or developer forums here and there to see if there is any way to get this done.

I'm almost completely oblivious to source coding or file compiling myself, but there may be a few tech-heads around who could help you out on that one.
