PiratesAhoy! is a community for all fans of pirates and the Age of Sail, centred around games, books, and movies.
We are primarily a modding community, our flagship works being the unified Build Mod (AKA 'New Horizons') for Akella's 2003 game 'Pirates of the Caribbean', and the 'Gentlemen of Fortune' mod for their more recent game, 'Age of Pirates 2: City of Abandoned Ships'. Our most recent project is more ambitious, to develop our very own role playing game set in the Age of Sail, using Unreal Engine 3.
The community is free for anyone to join, regardless of age, nationality or ability, and we always warmly welcome any and all new members to our site.
We're always on the lookout for beta testers, coders, modellers, texture artists and anyone with new ideas!
For more information and to join the community, please visit our main forum: www.piratesahoy.net.

My PC Specifications: Windows 7 32 bit, DualCor 2 ghz, 3gb ram working memory, 1gb gddr5 memory gforce grafic Nvidia.
Thanks in advance for an answer.
Ps: please do not be angry about spelling errors. Translated written with Google.
Guys I'm sorry I haven't been to the PA forums since December. I can only focus on one mod at the moment.
Guys, we need to spruce the page a bit with some fancy graphics. If somebody allows to edit the page, I'll do it.
The New Horizon Mod is awesome thanks for all the hard work and effort you put into it.
Hey all, I found/guessed my login information, so I'm here now as well.
Can you access the main site yet?
Yeah, it's been working for me the past day and a half.
Forum worked for a while for me now too :O stopped again but :(
Keith says the following when you try to visit the site:
"Sorry guys, this server hosting in Malaysia has been a nightmare of biblical proportion. I'll be moving it all back to a US based server and hopefully that will get everything back on the road again. Give me until tomorrow, I'm really sorry for all the screwing around that's happened but we're near the end and PA! will still keep kicking along. Thanks, Keith."
So hopefully this will be resolved soon!
The main page showed up for a few minutes, too. It's back to being blank now, though. There is hope yet, methinks! Must have been something quite nasty that knocked the site out.
