Hi so I get an Runtime Error when I start New Horizons on a brand new install, I already checked the Error log and it says this:
COMPILE ERROR - file: sea_ai\ShipWalk.c; line:9
can't load file: sea_ai\walk\Battleship4_walk.c

Update:

Battleship4_walk.c is missing in PROGRAM\SEA_AI\walk I'll re-download the August31_fixes and see if its included... maybe soms files where lost during download or something like that.

How did you install the modpack? Which version did you get and which steps did you follow?
It sounds like something went wrong somewhere along the line.
 
I used the b14_beta4_installer to install b14_beta4_final and after that I dragged the post_August31_fixes to the main Pirates of the Caribbean directory, And all of that on a clean and legal POTC install.

Note: I see that Battleship4_walk.c is missing in b14_beta4_final, can someone maybe post that file here?
 
So I did a re-install of the base potc game and the B14_beta4_final both worked fine but after I applied the post_August31_fixes my game crashes with the same error... I'll re-download the August31_fixes and see what happens.
 
@pedrwyth Thanks! But a new error occurs: can't load file: sea_ai\walk\Brig_20_Gun1_18_walk.c ...
I think the post_August31_fixes Is missing soms files? Because the b14_beta4_final is working just fine, or I'll have to play whitout the new update :(
 
Yesterday I decided to try the updates and DLed the post_August31_fixes from the bottom line. 252mb zipped and 594mb unzipped. Dragged the modules, program, and resource folders to the working POTC install where 1200-1300 files were changed. Tried to start the game and it failed.

Got this error log:
COMPILE ERROR - file: characters\characters_events.c; line: 126
function ChangeHPBonus(args:2) doesnt accept 4 arguments

had you installed @Levis extra updates before the latest WIP one? he has expanded the HP bonus func, and changes some files that arent in the post 31 aug updates so when I installed the new update ontop of levis, I got the same error
 
I re-downloaded the post_August31_fixes and b14_beta4_final and re-installed potc base game and still the same error "COMPILE ERROR - file: sea_ai\ShipWalk.c; line:9
can't load file: sea_ai\walk\Battleship4_walk.c"

When I added @pedrwyth file I got another error which says: can't load file: sea_ai\walk\Brig_20_Gun1_18_walk.c

So I checked both the post_August31_fixes and b14_beta4_final Zip/tar file and there aren't any files named Battleship4_walk or Brig_20_Gun1_18_walk.c in the Program\SEA_AI\walk folder, so did someone forgot to add these files the the "post_August31_fixes" update or did I download another 'corrupt' file? Which I highly doubt... @pedrwyth How did you get the Battleship4_walk file since I can't find it anywhere on my pc?

The ModDB Installer EXE with the ZIP from the opening post? That explains it.
The opening post also contains a link to an updated version of the Installer EXE.
You need that one instead of the ModDB one.

It was in an earlier (January 2017) WIP install with a 11th August 2017 zip applied - I haven't installed the latest since I'm still working on other things. I too think you need the installer from the first post and then the extra files zip.

Correct. That's why it's called "post 31st August fixes". ;)

There's another update archive on the FTP site for the 7th January install. The 31st August install includes those updates.
 
My game works just fine now, I was using the wrong exe, I guess it' s almost newyear's eve which got me confusing.

But thanks and I wish everybody in this community already a happy and healthy new year! :ahoy

I do not recall if I did or not. Should I?
