How to install build 14a7 properly

Its not called config.ini. Cyberpunk made a mistake. its actually called options with no file extension. Simply open it with word pad. The line you want to change is gameoption.newinterface_on= . Set it to 0 to disable the new interface (gives ya the old one back (where you can select options))
 
I've played to Build 14 update 7 during many hours.
At the moment i've found some bugs:

After capturing a fort -> black screen (i also met the fort commandant but i can't talk to him).
Many CTDs on Oxbay island. (when you leave or arrive to the island).
Dialogue error when you want to talk to the governor's daughter. (Gov Mr_dialog.c).

Anyone has also these bugs? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
Yep. I had those problems too. Other than those, I also had problems with invisible sails (and masts, in some occasions) and missing sounds. Specifically, the bugs that I have had the most irksome trouble with were: #1: The cannon change interface never pops up when I talk to the shipwright. #2: The ship loses ALL of its gunpowder without firing a shot, and #3: the store interface gets "stuck" so I can neither buy nor sell. Hafta now make a living off raiding forts all the time.
 
Just a side-note: If you have a localized version (German, French ...) when installing as described, the loading screens and voice files are screwed up by one of the runme.bat files. You don't have loading screens/voices unless you do what the runme.bat files do by hand (moving the files manually). It seems the DOS mode of the Runme.bat files renames the files randomly (e.g. Dut_f_a_001.wav becomes DU5AA8~1.wav).
 
I have not installed anything before the latest build 13 (without some upgrades im not certain) i installed 14a6 i could play that with mjor bugs and i cant play 14a7 with or without the bug fix i get an engine error wich says abnormal program ten.. something please help me!
 
ah, so you found it already? well, i guess you just need to follow the instructions. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> remember though that you should read the entire fist page to avoid a problem.
 
Shall i uninstall the game with all build mod attached to it or shall i install build 12? Can someone please tell what are the add-ons to all the mods? Like whats new?
 
could you open engine.ini
change this line: tracefilesoff = 1 TO this line: tracefilesoff = 0
and this line: debuginfo = 0 To this line: debuginfo = 1

Then start the game, the game will still give an errror but now there is a file called error.log in your POTC folder.
Open this and post the messages in error.log here, so we can see what the problem is.

If you only say, it gives an error, we don't know what the cause is.
