what shal i do? I haven´t done any Quests just boarding ships.


I cant do quests for the gouvenear in Quebra Costilias, he wont talk to me.


what shal i do?
 
The QC pirate leader doesn't give quests anyway. What shall you do? Well, that's up to you. What do you WANT to do? You can go trading, smuggling, pirating, get yourself a Letter of Marque or play the storyline and side quests.
 
Argh! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> ive started to play the main story line and try not to kill any pirates :p, is that posible?


// by the way, I went to antigua and a lot of bugs are there <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> when i went to the guvanear, do you know what the loading page was? It was a teture of a ship :p haha.

And when i should talk to him this comes up

there aren't any loading screens for antigua yet. that dialogue should be working though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Haven´t seen that one before <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />


Which version (Build) are you playing, Chris Roupé ?
 
hmm, strange :S , but by the way is it posible to go thrue the whole main quests with not attacking pirate ships?
 
There's just some quest ships you need to attack, but I don't think those should hurt your reputation too much.

About the loading screens: They're just temporary placeholders until somebody makes proper ones. Obviously nobody did in the past year or more. We'll make sure there's proper loading screens for Build 14.

About the not loading dialog, please <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9234" target="_blank">enable error logging</a> and show me the error.log you get after talking to that guy.

What do you have in mind for the loading screens? Drawings or (enhanced) screenshots? We could start some kind of user submitted art/screenshot contest, it works very well for Europa Barbarorum (a Rome:Total War mod) and they got tons of high quality pictures for their site through it.
 
Screenshots with loading screen text added on top. I made some loading screens myself for the new Tortuga and some AoP interior locations and I still have the files for that. So a user screenshot contest would be most useful. Forum members make the screenshots and I stick the text on. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

We'll be needing a lot of new loading screens, even for the original game's towns. With the Real Caribbean mod, you will be able to switch between the original town names and the new ones, but it'd be weird to walk around Port Royal and see "Redmond" on the loading screens. So we'll be needing new loading screens for pretty much all town and new jungle locations. Then we can just put the text "Town" and "Port" on the loading screens, so we don't need different loading screens when the Real Caribbean mod is on. Also updated loading screens will show off our new character and ship models as well. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />
 
Goodie. Some of the users over at totalwar.org managed to take really amazing screenies (heres a <a href="http://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=96276" target="_blank">link</a> for the ones interested) , I have no doubt we can do the same. And perhaps some of the pics can be used for promotion for the moddb site.
 
Indeed. I suppose I should start a thread on this and also post the "tricks of the trade", eg flying camera mode and using sidestep. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
We could use some good new loading screens. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":dance" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />
 
Hehe, the (in-)famous sidestep of doom.

I forgot to ask if there´s need for an additional start up loading screen? I recently started drawing again and a pirate-themed pic
certainly would be a nice challenge.

For comparison: heres a desktop wallpaper I made for myself couple of months ago, just replace the soldier and the army in the backround with a pirate and nice ship battle and you should get an idea of what I´ve in mind for a PotC Build loading screen.

That looks nice. Indeed we will definitly be needing three additional new loading screens for Build 14:
- Load the game (currently Sea Dogs fort battle picture)
- Start a new game (currently DMC poster picture)
- Load savegame (currently bloodthirsty pirate)

Preferrably I'd like these screens to look drawn/painted as opposed to screenshots for the location-specific loading screens. Also we'll be needing something new for the Storm 2.0 splash screen. I replaced the wave image for Build 13, but for Build 14 we'll again be needing something else. Preferrably all those thre loading screens and the splash screen should be in a somewhat similar "Build 14: New Horizons" style.
