Need Help Stuck in 'A Silver Tain Quest', no shore to land...

FrozenHeart

Freebooter
Storyline - Bartolomeu o Portuguese
Mission - Silver Tain

In quest I have to land on Devil Creek in Petit Tabac island. I am in right place(as describe at map in documentation). There is no moor option for landing. 'Sail to' menu options also empty(its showing only Henry Morgan's ship). I can see a little shore, but unable to land there. There is no 'Devil Creek' present. Completely stuck in there. What to do?? Any suggestion??
* I tried several times, result is the same.
 
According to another thread in this forum there was a problem there but it was fixed for Beta 3. Do you have any log files?
 
I read that thread. In my case I have found Petit Tabac, but there I could not land on shore. No options for landing. There is no Devil Creek. Pls. see the attachments.

Did you saw error log? There is some runtime error.
Also I need to know I am in right place. Although I am quite sure. As mention at documentation Archipelago map. Petit Tabac is near Hispaniola, close to boca-da-yuman.
 
I don't think that utilities error is your problem. Petit Tabac is between Hispaniola and Puerto Rico. Have you sailed all the way around the island?
 
I just sailed around the island and there is no place to land. I did not get the error.log either.

If you tried several times from an older save, like one before you left for this quest, then something is wrong with the quest or the island and a coder will have to look at it.
 
Yes, I tried that. But at a point when I am circling the island (towards Hispaniola) a 'sail ho...' sound and I am throng out from there. After the sail ho.. I am close to 'port au prince', almost surrounded by 3/4 Spanish & 3/4 pirates ships.
 
I started the quest 3times from beginning. As you say you had the same problem, then there is some problem with the quest indeed. Hope that will be solve soon. I am moving to another storyline.
 
I thought I fixed that at some point? Do you use Arcade or Realistic Game Mode?
There should be a Sail-To point for it.
 
I am using Arcade mode. There is no sail-to point appear for any shore, neither moor commend. Sail-to only showing Henry Morgan's ship.

I think I've found your problem. You're trying to land on Isla Mona. xD

Petit Tabac is somewhere near Concepcion - slightly to the north, as I recall.
 
Pls. see the attachments. All save game files are there. Start to reach. Top to bottom.
1. In Tavern - Before starting the quest.
2. Town hall - After accepting the quest.
3. In port - Before start the journey.
4. On the way on open sea.
5. At Petit Tabac island.

Is bad weather triggering the event(mean the shore) there? There is always stormy weather whenever I tried to reach Petit Tabac. And I always avoid it. Just querious :D

Damm it :mad: are you sure. Yes that is Isla Mona water, as I recall. Because map in documentation showing Petit Tabac is in between Hispaniola and Puerto Rico. So I am trying there. Hylie also say that.
 
I don't know this documentation. But I do know Isla Mona because I've done the "Assassin" storyline, one of whose missions is to blow up a couple of big cannons there. :boom:

The first time I visited Petit Tabac was by accident and I didn't land there. You can't Sail-To a place unless you've already been there. (Or unless you've bought a map, but that feature didn't exist in Beta 3, which is what I was playing at the time.) So I was playing "Tales of a Sea Hawk", visiting Concepcion for the first time and sailing round the island trying to find somewhere to land. Up came the message that I was approaching Petit Tabac. Much later, having completed the main quest and most of the side quests, I went looking for all the other side quests I hadn't done, one of which is a different version of "The Silver Train" and which also involves Devil Creek, Petit Tabac. I remembered my earlier visit and went back. This time I did land!
 
You are right Grey. I found it where you say. Many thanks:onya. I am following map in the documentation folder. And Hylie too. Map is incorrect :eek:. So Pieter pls don't blame us :shrug. We are following the map.

SO IT IS SOLVED. Petit Tabac is near Concepcion(just north). Thanks for your time Pieter, Hylie, Grey.

* Grey I will go for Assassin storyline after this one. The mission you said is sounds like film 'Guns Of Navarone' mate xD
* Have a question in mind, I want to fly(mean drive) USS Constitution. Where to find it? In which storyline?

That is indeed what it is inspired on. ;)

* Have a question in mind, I want to fly(mean drive) USS Constitution. Where to find it? In which storyline?
She is the American promotion reward ship in Revolutions, eg. Master & Commander storyline.
You can purchase her from Hendrick Vanderdecken in just about all storylines though.
 
Thats cool :onya. It is also in Call of Duty game.
So I can find USS Constitution in Jean Lafitte storyline too. As I know Master & Commander, JeanLafitte, DevlinOpera all have unfinished storyline.
