Post your BUILD 12 bugs here, thanks...

IF any of you are having trouble with your controls in the game, just go to the F1 menu and go into OPTIONS/CONTROLS - and hit the DEFAULT button (or map to whatever you wish). <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Yeah. Consider that Part Two of reinitializing.
Step one: Load game
Step two: options->controls->reset to defaults
Step three: options->controls->customize (to taste)
Step four: press I

You're now upgraded.
 
I'm getting a crash to desktop whenever I try to swap ships on the water (i.e. f2, `ship-to`-ship transfer, swap ships).

I haven't quite mastered the art of the error report yet, but I'll post one when I do if necessary.

Also, the 'About v12' button on the main menu doesn't seem to do anything.

That said, I'm really loving what I'm seeing so far... Thanks to all the `mod-folks` for all your hard work!!!
 
It's a global announcement (top of forum) rather than a normal thread, is probably why.

Trustworthy: Do you get the same CTD from the "normal" transfer method (i.e sail close, hit F3, click swap)?

(I assume no.) You see, that F2 advanced transfer interface was originally totally disabled at sea, so Kieron didn't write any SeaAI code to it. We `re-enabled` it for peaceful sea locations to make transferring goods easier.
Probably should thus disable the swap ships button when bSeaActive, then (if got there via F2, not F3).

Sorry about that.
 
You're right on; swapping works fine for me via the sail close/f3 method.

It's no problem at all for me, really; long range swapping isn't something I generally do in game. I was just testing out a few of the new ships and happened to notice it.

Anyway, thanks!

I'm still geting my problem with the main menu menu... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":c" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

*** UPDATE ***

Sorry - Problem fixed in Build 12... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />
 
Im getting error when im trying to install the Build 12. Its almost ready when its
says: buildsetting.h cannot be opened. DAMN <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":c" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />
 
Dway, make sure that Buildsetting.h has not been set to "Read Only" status. Check this by `right-clicking` on the file, select "Properties", and look at the bottom of the dialog box at the "Attributes" section. Make sure the "Read Only" box is clear.
 
The first mission from the French governor to sink the "English" pirate corvette isn't working now for some reason. I can sink it, capture it, whatever, but the governor doesn't acknowledge the task as complete.

I'm not sure if this is a v12 bug or not, but the quest was working fine when I did it in v11.

Okay, here's a bug:

In the Fred Bob quest, when I meeting the woman outside the IM tavern, she says something about knowing how to handle a sword and pistol, and then the dialog ends. I can't speak to her after that, and she doesn't follow me...

PS.: I really love the dialog, thanks FB and Catalina! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/diomed.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dio" border="0" alt="diomed.gif" />
 
Thanks F_B; it's still not working for me no matter which dialogue I choose, but it could just be a `one-time` bug. I don't have an earlier save handy atm, but I'll play around with it in a new game tonight...
 
Oh, on an unrelated note, I'm get a crash to desktop whenever I try to swap officers (i.e. in and out of the three active slots) on the water.

Perhaps you need to go back to a previous save?

Have you asked him to give you the benefit of his vast mariner's experience? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

And I enjoyed putting together the rest of the dialog for the quest. Even after creating this quest and getting away from it for a time, it was great to get back to it - and realize how much fun it truly is!

Hope you get this working again!
 
I hope too... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />

I have FB and Artois with me, FB in slot 2 and Artois in 4. Donna Estrella should go in 2?

(Yeah, I asked him about that vast mariner experience, and it was really funny... Can he teach you any skills? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />)
 
Every time I try to install, error messages pops up "F:pirates of the CaribbeanBuildsettings.h cannot be opened". I can play with partial installation, but can´t talk to vendors or Rheims. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/oops3.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops2" border="0" alt="oops3.gif" />
 
Try this.
Make a ZIP of all the files in your PROGRAM folder.
Then, delete them all (but keep the zip).

Then install the build.

Then go through and extract all the files from the zip that you do _not_ have in the folders under PROGRAM (you will probably have to do the folders one by one, unless you're using WinRAR or something that's intelligent about overwriting/not overwrite). I.e. extract from the zip but overwrite _nothing_.

That should get you working.
