Build FAQ

Not yet. The quest isn't finished yet either, of course, so any walkthrough would soon be outdated.
Additionally there's a LOT of different routes to take and some good and bad choices.
Some characters in the game give hints on what to do, Thomas Tipman and Henry the Beggar for example.

Ahoy...

i´m playing <b>Build 13</b> atm. Very important for the answer <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Is it possible to get the Black Pearl as a starting ship or to buy it? I know you can board the BP in the last battle but I dont wanna play the hole quest to get the BP <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Other question:

Still <b>Build 13 </b><img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

What about getting the Flying Dutchman...A chance to start with the Flying Dutchman? Would be cool <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

I searched the ships_init.c and tried my best, but I´m not one of the modders, so better asking then trying <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
You can replace one of the starting ship opions in PROGRAM\InternalSettings.h with "theBlackPearl".
The Flying Dutchman is not included, but you can get her in the FilmShips mod available from this site's <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?automodule=downloads" target="_blank">Downloads section</a>.
After installing that, you can do the same as with the Black Pearl by adding "FlyingDutchman" or "CursedDutchman" in that file.
Note that you should be REPLACING the existing lines and not adding new ones.
 
<a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=11386" target="_blank">Now we've got two FAQs</a>. Can somebody possibly combine the important parts of both?

Hi, im using build 14 latest patch and whatever, im wondering if im playing the standard storyline how do i change the build setting and internal settings so i dont have to use rum and food and whatever, and also so i can set my own skills as i rank up. Plus i would like to know how to give myself money at games start, and i dont use the stormy start, i do the stock potc start from oxbay, aka speightstown.
Thanks
 
There's a whole bunch of options in Options>Advanced Options in the game.
Make a save prior to adjusting the options, then reload the save after making your adjustments.
Otherwise things get messed up (bug :( ).
For getting money, just use the cheatmode. From "buildinfo\Default Key Assignments.txt":
Code:
================================
Cheats:
================================
These only work if ENABLE_CHEATMODE is on
at the bottom of PROGRAM\InternalSettings.h

Numpad 0 = Godmode
Numpad 1 = Officer 1 Fake Level-Up
Numpad 2 = Officer 2 Fake Level-Up
Numpad 3 = Officer 3 Fake Level-Up
Numpad 4 = Player Level-Up
Numpad 5 = Player Fake Level Up
Numpad 6 = + 100000 Gold and + 10000 Wealth
Numpad 7 = Cycle through reputations (increase/decrease reputation)
Numpad 9 = Trigger enemy attack (cheatmode not required)
 
A. Yes but it would require a lot of work and no one is free enough to do it for you Im afraid (so the answer is pretty much no [unless you try to do it yourself]) :shrug
 
There IS a way? I never found any. Not for the worldmap anyway.
For DirectSail it's another matter.
