Build Pre 13 Help

G

Ahoy Mateys! Im new to these fourms, but i've been playing akella since Sea Dogs, and i had gotten PotC when it was first released and aside from the bugs it was alittle boring and i couldnt figure out how to cheat (so i've been playing the x-box version where cheating is easy)

So now im back since someone told me about b12 and preb13 mods and i'd like alittle help. Firstly, I'd like to know if its possible to cheat, i play for fun not challanges, besides pirates cheat <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> all i need is large sums of gold and godmode would be nice too.

As for the build help, i was wondering how do you get married and start your own town and all, just a push in the right direction would be good.

Thanks for any help ye old sea dogs!

You can get the mods from <a href="http://pieter.piratesahoy.org" target="_blank">this site</a>.

In the Pre Build 13 pack you can open PROGRAM\BuildSettings.h and enable the cheatmode by setting ENABLE_CHEATMODE to 1. You can then use the cheats with the numpad buttons. For example: Numpad 0 is godmode and Numpad 6 is the money cheat.

To get married you must get a Letter of Marquee froma governor, then go sink enemies of the governor's country. By doing so, you will be promoted and eventually the governor will introduce you to nieces and daughters.

The only way to build your own town is to use CouchcaptainCharles' BuildingSet mod. You talk to one of your officers to build a building wherever you like. These buildings sometimes look odd and you can walk through the walls, but it's still funny and they add some nice features to the game.

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> there and welcome aboard.

Go to the Options menu and check your controls configuration. They may have changed if you've just installed Build 12. If so just reconfigure to your preference.

Cheers <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Thanks for all ye help, i just have another thing i need help on. How do you find tailor shops? I've been running around oxby and Redmond so far and i havent even seen a tailor shop, also fast travel doesnt work to them. I checked buildsettings.h thing and its
#define ENABLE_TAILORSMOD 1 which im guessing is on right?

Also is it normal to get jumped in towns so much? or is it a bug? I mean i doubt anyone got attacked this much in the age of sails inside a town. And what does this do?

#define ENABLE_BROTHEL 1

I set it to 1 but i have yet to see any brothels...

Thanks so much mateys, im totally loving these mods <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Welcome to the Site.

There are tailor shops in most cities. You cannot use fast travel, you must look for them. The tailor shop in Oxbay is next to the street merchant inside the port gate. The one is Redmond is harder to find, but come out of the shipyard, make a left, go down some stairs, walk until you see some stairs on the right. Tailor is at the top of the stairs. Hope I got those directions right. Its been awhile since I have played.

You can be attacked and robbed in towns. A lot depends on your reputation etc.

The only brothel is on pirate island (Quebradas Costillas). This mod must be enabled, as you have done.
You can go to the brothel on the island by fast travel.

Again welcome to PA, enjoy the game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

In Build Settings h file scoll down to whar ye see Vice City and lower bandit probability chances <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

// VICE CITY (done with a lot of help by NK)
//generates lots of friendly and/or hostile people in town
#define TOWN_VCSKIP_DISABLEALL 1 //change to 0 if vags still generated if loc has skip attr.
#define TOWN_ENC_CHANCE 1.0 //chance for anyone to be generated in town during day
#define TOWN_ENC_CHANCE_NIGHT 0.5 //chance, like above, but at night
#define TOWN_BANDIT_CHANCE 0.5 //chance of there being bandits at all. x2 if at night.
#define TOWN_BANDIT_RESPAWN_CH 0.75 //chance for bandits to be spawned again that day.
#define TOWN_BANDIT_ENC_SCALAR 0.25 //bandit probability scaled by this
#define TOWN_BANDIT_RESPAWN_SCL 0.5 //scalar to bandit prob if already bandits gen'd today.
#define TOWN_BANDIT_MAX 0.67 //max bandit probability
 
i got a question to... when you start a new game and leve oxbay for the first time you get killed by the fort when you go to youre boat, why is that?
 
Because you are flying an English flag when leaving port, while the Oxbay fort has been taken over by the French, so they blow you out of the water. Solution: Go into the F2 Nation Relation menu and raise French or Portuguese colours. That will fool them.

This problem is solved in the Build 13 Beta version, but only if you use the default nation in the Start New Game menu. Why aren't you using that version? Get it from my site.
 
You should really get the Build 13 Beta version from my site. In that version, a lot of bugs are fixed, the being-blown-out-of-the-water-when-leaving-Oxbay issue was fixed AND Will Turner is selectable in the Start New Game screen. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

The ship you escort is allied to you and will be as long as you are in FdF harbor.

You can fire on it manually in 1st person view, but then the fort will fire on you.


Go to map mode and sail away form FdF.
Then when you come out to sea mode, the ship will be enemy!
 
Also: If you want to shoot manually, you should press the V key instead of the spacebar. The spacebar now does the exact same thing in 1st person and 3rd person sailing mode and the manually aiming of a shot has been taken over by the V key.
