Having some bugs with mod

Mikky

Landlubber
First, want to thank for the mod - it's brilliant and adds loads to the whole game. (And for some reason it's the only way I can play the game, un-modded it won't open up)

Now as much as I enjoy the Build (I have 13 full, if 14 is out already then sorry) I've been having loads of bugs with it. Most are minor and although annoying don't give too much of a problem. However my main bugs (which I can remember at the moment) are:

Nigel Blythe. I sank Mean Harry (or rather, stole his corvette) and got my money from the governor. Now however Nigel doesn't seem to be in the tavern - his skin is there, along with his dialogue but it's always a random Portugese name. I think the game has taken his model in as a permanent civilian of the Concencao tavern. PS. he's not in my passengers, should I check my berthed ships? (even though I highly doubt that would help)

Falaise de Fleur - I just started the Fred Bob quest which judging by all the 'hype' sounds awesome. I also started that quest where a merchant gets robbed 2 days prior of having to return his money (? and his Idols was the quest i think). However all the French soldiers on that part of FDF are un-talkable. They don't react to my talks in any way, and neither does the commandant. I tried walking in and out of that part of FDF - the rest seems normal but the soldiers in the "main" are still messed up. When going on a rampage and moving in and out of the area (hoping this would respaw/reset their AI) I just found the french soldiers receive random french names and still not talk to me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Sorry for writing this much - I'm going on holiday soon and I wanted to put in all the details that I could remember. When I'm back I'll check here..trusting you guys <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

PS. I haven't touched the game files <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />o)
 
Does anyone else have this as well?
The random name thing is something that usually happens when a character died and was then reused again. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

apparently I'm the only one, then. Do you have any idea what might be causing my bug with the Frenchies in FDF perhaps? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Did you already killed the guy that had the idols in his house already? If i remember well, you must kill the guy, then you talk with the merchant, then with the commandant, then with the commandant again or with the merchant....thats all i remember
 
I'm afraid I haven't got a clue, really. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Sorry for the yet again late reply - but thanks. I'm gonna try that out.

'update' I messed up who I had to kill and what...I killed that dude with the idols, talked to the merchant, the commandant doesn't reply. nor does he speak with/out talking to the merchant, argh. I'm gonna try to find an earlier save, see what happens.

'update' 2 - no, still messed up. I guess it's something initial from the game or mod.
 
Perhaps it's a one-time fluke and it'll be good next time you try?
After starting a new game, of course.
That sometimes seems to happen for whatever reason (or lack thereof). <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />
 
Damn, I hate starting new games <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />o)
but hey I guess I'll try out both options - thanks
