Build Mod 14A6/Noob Question

[Goatman455]

Where do you get Build Mod 14A6, all the links I found seem to be broken with one user claiming "build 14a6 simply isn't available right now" telling them his site was down and for someone to host it. This package sounds like an awesome addition to POTC, and I would like to try the best version available rather than having to reinstall later and likely start my game over again.

That user was me. My site suddenly disappeared, along with everything on it. It'll hopefully be back soon.
In the meantime, somebody has been kind enough to upload Build 14 Alpha 6 <a href="http://pafiles.com/build/b14_alpha6.zip" target="_blank">here</a>. It should be installed on top of Build 13. Note though that even though it IS quite playable, it's not called <b>Alpha</b> for nothing. Recommended to set MAPSPEED 1.0 at the top of PROGRAM\Worldmap\worldmap.c afterwards.

Awesome, thanks a lot, do I have to install the 13 update, or just 13 final first?

Just Build 13 Final. The Update 3 files are included in Build 13 Final as well as in the Build 14 Alpha 6 download. I would recommend you install to a different folder than your game folder, then move all files into your game folder, overwriting what's there. Then run the RunMe.bat file that's there, then set MAPSPEED 1.0 at the top of PROGRAM\Worldmap\worldmap.c.
I have noticed on my computer that when installing Build 13 Final straight on top of my game, it fails to overwrite the files in the main game folder, but does overwrite all files in the PROGRAM, MODULES and RESOURCE folders. VERY strange.
