Arrrr..... i have found 2 bugs in POTC...

i uses Build mod 14 alpha 6 whit pb modification.

1.
when i start on the main quest, to free Oxbay from the french, i was on the mission for robert silehard, to gather info about the french plans...
so i did and was about to get back to redmon to tell the govenor about the vessel transporting ammo.
but i was unable to get a reward, because the only thing i can tell him about is that the french has taken Oxbay. the first thing i told him about!

but i have done the main quest many times before so i know what to do next and that was to destroy the ammo vessel. so whitout an approval from the govenor i sailed to the french colony and sunk the vessel... wen i got back to redmon nothing had ---- i could only tell him like before that the French had taken oxbay!???? now i cannot go any further!? what to i do?

2.
the second bug is om the mission where i am going to find the black frigate "mefisto" and the kidnapped children.
a short while in the mission back on Isla muelle, i have transported a ship from oxbay to Isla muelle, and when i have talked to the priest
and just had went out of the church 3 men in red approach me (satanist people) and thay just stand there... dont say anything, when i go past them or kill them i cannot go anywhere... everythig is locked, every shop and the gate to the harbour... so what do i do?




Best regards Helge Meyer. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> sorry for my bad english.
 
i've seen the first one. i don't remember what it was that you could use to avoid it, but it had something to do with the sequence in which you do things, i know that much. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> have you started at oxbay?
 
Have you entered 3D sailing mode around Oxbay yet? You might need to do that before being able to play the main quest properly. Could you please do that and try again?

I think the second one was reported as well. Not sure what was the problem there or whether it was fixed. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
i am sorry for asking, but how do i entered 3D sailing mode?

i am really ashamed if i was to know that from before! sorry.... : <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" /> shrug




Best regards Helge Meyer.

Yes i forgot, when those men in red on isla muelle approach me and it seemed they gonna talk to me, is come up on the screen: you cannot talk to dead enemies unless your name is hamlet. or something... dos the game think they are dead ore something!?


Best regards.
 
No ..game thinks you'r Hamlet.
My game thinked that too and i got mad at it and yelled I AM NOT F[Censored]G HAMLET. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" />

3D sailing mode is just the normal sailing mode where you see your ship sailing at sea and where you fight your battles. This opposed to map sailingmode, which is the small ship sailing around on the worldmap.

As for the Hamlet thing: It's a know issue. I think it was caused by re-using characters that had previously been killed. This one needs to be fixed. I don't remember if a fix has already been made and implemented in any of the Alpha's. I suppose we'll need to find out whenever Alpha 8 is ready.
 
hi Pieter!

For the main quest, leaving Oxbay via 3-D sailing (sea mode) is supposed to trigger the Video of the French invasion of Oxbay, and set up the quest so that the Eng Gov. at Redmond will talk to you about it.
 
Petros is correct. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
You can see what happens when you do enter 3D sailing mode near Oxbay. If that doesn't work, I think you'll need to start a new game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Oky , thanks Pieter. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
no, you have to start a new game. let me guess: the two gaurds in front of the mansion didn't stop you from entering either the first time you went there?

then it's exactly the same bug i had encountered. some important trigger just doesn't get triggered, messing the whole quest up. unfortunately, i forgot what causes the problem, as i did use to know. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

I experienced the first bug but I am almost certain I was stopped before going into the mansion.

Isn't that the only way to leave? To get to the world map you have to be in 3d sailing mode?

Can't be bothered to redo it so went back to 13 for a while <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
Well, zaro, I think that what Pieter meant is that you have to go to the port, get to your ship, and sail in 3d sailing mode until you see the thing which brings you to the world map and not to use the ENTER button.. or if not, maybe he meant just that you have to sail for a while in 3D..

But you can also start the game in a different port than Oxbay and then when you enter 3D sailing mode near Oxbay, the French invasion will be triggered next time you enter the worldmap.
