a small bug

i downloaded the new alpha 8 full to test it on my new rig. the first thing i noticed when i started a new game was that if i entered the inventory in the beginning as jack sparrow, i only had 50 % health remaining. weird... how is that explained? it happened every time i started a new game and entered the inventory. is this a known bug, or is it only appearing in my version?
 
Hi,
Your health is shown in the left buttom of the screen, inside the icon of Jack Sparrow with the blue and the red line above it. That line indicates your health, is it 100% from start? And then it changes to 50%, after having entered your inventory?!

If that is the case, it really IS weird. On my screen, I still am at full health, level 6, have 500 gold, a pistol and 1 free point for abilities.
 
yes that's the case... and i noticed that i suddenly was on level 40, and the total ammount of hp just keeps on growing... another thing is that i can't distribute my skill points, and btw, all music i can hear is the stock game music, even if i installed the potc movie music. i'm starting to wonder if it has anything to do with the total installation?

EDIT:
i found out that this only happened if I play as Jack Sparrow... I have changed the file about him, so he starts with another ship, can this be the reason?
the sounds on the game are messed up, when i speak to anyone, i hear this sound of a peep that goes like a whistle. and every time i check the sound settings, all of the settings are turned all the way down, even if i have changed them. but still i hear effects, stock game music and sometimes, this noise.

btw, i'm running this on vista x64

Turn it off if you want to play with this character. Changing your starting ship shouldn't do a thing.
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->another thing is that i can't distribute my skill points<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->That should be because autoskill mode is on, as said below turn it off in the option / advanced options menu.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->and btw, all music i can hear is the stock game music, even if i installed the potc movie music.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->It works correctly in my game. After extracting the PotC movie music pack, did you set the game music from 'Standart' to 'Pirates of the Caribbean' in the Options / Sounds menu?

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->the sounds on the game are messed up, when i speak to anyone, i hear this sound of a peep that goes like a whistle.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->Are you sure it's 'anyone' and not just CCC random guys walking in the street? Anyway, I'm working on alpha 8 dialog sounds code, I'll try to solve that by the same time. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->btw, i'm running this on vista x64<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->I have Vista too (unfortunatly), and it shouldn't cause any problem.
 
oh, sorry, my bad, not everyone. i checked it now. the stock people do have a voice. but the thing about autoskill, i've already disabled it. it just seems like it automatically turns on for jack sparrow. where can i change his starting level, do you know that?
i have selected the potc music in options, but it still doesn't work... do i need to rename any files?
 
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->where can i change his starting level, do you know that?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->I do : open \PROGRAM\Storyline\LegendJackSparrow\quests\quests_reaction.c and disable line 29 'PChar.rank = 40;' by adding '//' in front.
 
thanks matey! i apreciate your help <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
