Is there a quest concerning the Aztec Medallions as shown in the Screenshot & if so where does it begin ?

At last count I had over 45,000 of them.

no quest, but it would be nice if there did exist a quest involving the treasure on "Isle de muerta" With the cursed treasure of cortez <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Please note: These coins have a negative effect on your personal luck skill. I once had the idea to add a feature where you would sometimes encounter pirates from the Black Pearl looking for these coins when you had any.

wow 4440- luck lol <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
(Un)fortunately, each item type only counts once. So it's just -1 luck for the whole lot of them, not -4440. Actually; would be pretty funny to be so ridiculously unlucky in the game. *Gets all sorts of wicked ideas for such a mod, which I would do best to forget straight away* <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dev.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":d:" border="0" alt="dev.gif" />
I didn't know I was so evil! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Well then how about 152,524 & counting...........

For the past 3 days I've been doing treasure quests & sending pirates to Davy Jones Locker <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

This would be a good idea. And maybe you could also limit them to... (how much coins are said to exist in POTC?)
 
888 ecxatly, so you must return all your coins to cortess to get a very special item! That would be a great quest, and the pirate cave could be the modified animist layer
 
I did Lost Treasure Quests like the ones in this Screen Shot

On a lighter note,
In the Pirates Of The Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl - There were 882 " Coins of Cortez ". <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" />

Avast thar yew bilge rats, look alive thar and be quick about it.....I've bin doin some thinkin, and this ere be the bulk of it. Supposin thar only be,...ok....maybe 888 is a little tew much, but whatever works is fine. Supposin when you find these ere medallions/coins, and it can't be tew easy, the first thing is your character becomes invincible, well at least yew can't die. Also they should lower your luck or some other things tew reflect the downsides of this ere curse. If'n you find a second one, yew be givin them tew your favorite officers, sew they be fallin under this ere spell as well. That way you can keep some of them around with out them die'n all the time as well. But the downside of the curse could be multiplied, whatever that may be.

Now yew start tew be'in stalked by these ere other Barbossa/cursed pirates, because they be lookin fer all them medallions as well, and yew "equipping" one has triggered off this ere quest, and so yew be havin these random incounters with them on a periodical basis, course yew be havin no recourse but tew be runnin away, because yew can' t be killin them guys, just like they can't be killin yew. (This is just like if you had Immortality on when you run into them fellers outside the Redmond Tavern when they want that thar chest....you can fight, but fightin for ever and no body winning is a little boring) BUT! they be killin off your crew, that be with yew, unless they be carr'ing coins tew protect thar persons.

So this ere becomes a real nuisance tew ya, yew have ta be fleein tew another part of the POTC world tew escape agin fer awhile, til they be trackin ya down agin. If'n yew be hangin around tew long, ya might have ta be takin on the Black Pearl earlier than planned in the game, and of course losin your ships and crews, ceptin the ones that cant die, everyone savvy sew far? Now this doesnt mean yew be attacked right away from the Black Pearl, but if'n yew dont move on to some other part of the carribean, tew escape these ere land encouters/attacks, that increase in frequency, after a reasonable time you risk this ere encounter and suffer serious losses. But it has tew be quick enough sew as tew interfere with what ever other quests or jobs yew be doin at the time, this ere be the nuisance/downside of riskin tew "Equip" these ere little devils tew protect yew.

But finally if'n yew collect all the coins, yew can decide tew turn them in somewhere....cursed Island or somethin, and thar should be a "big" reward. Something grand, and worth the aggravation of these ere encounters has tew be. With the original amount of 888 of these cursed coins yew should be able tew make this one of the biggest quests in the game. These encounters should not be every day, more like weeks or months but quick enough tew be a pain, but not tew wreck the game completely. Yew could even have it sew as the Black Pearl be sailin into your battles at sea, and Sink everything in sight cept'in yew, which yew can't prevent, and have ta be running agin tew prevent yew from a similiar fate. ( Can you be picture'in this, finally gettin into battle with that French Military Frigate or Pirate Corvette, yew be wantin to sail sew badly for yerself, you want outta yer little Brig.....and along comes them Damn pirates agin an sinks them thar Froggies afore yew can say "Jackie Sparrow" and yew have ta flee tew escape them once more, an callin fer a gallon of Rum tew be quench'in yer sorrows........)

Well my little dreams anyway, but wonder if'n them be anymore like minded "Skallywags" out thar that be liken my little quest!.... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" />
 
That's an excellent idea. I've been thinking of adding that, but I'm too busy getting rid of stupid crashes to be able to do some modding again myself.

BTW: It's the act of taking one of these coins from the original chest that curses you in the movie, so you shouldn't become invincible when you "equip" one taken from a different treasure chest.

Avast thar mates, I be undestandin yer concern, and that thar be the way of the Movie POTC to be certain....but was thinkin that the only way tew trigger off the Quest, or tew change yur character tew be "undead" be tew be equippin them thar medallions, this would start a script or somethin....I mean in the Movie, them thar coins warn't just "angin around waitin tew be scuped up" er nuthin, or them other fellas would have had them all. I looks at this ere little "experdishun" as tew comes afore that thar movie.....look at it this way, this be the way theys were all gathered up in the first place, ceptin one and Bootstrap Bill Turner tooks his tew Davey Jones, after yew and yer crew turns them in tew Barbossa an crew, or some other Evil Dead Place, that we aint comes up wth yet!......

Savvy!

Here I am at lvl 61 & have found 207,783 Medallions so far <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

i love this idea! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
we also need to remember that in the many years that Elizabeth Swan had the medallion, the Black Pearl only visited once, and that was AFTER IT DROPPED INTO THE SEA WITH HER.... so i think that we should make it so that if one of us happens to enter the water at a beach anywhere on the map, if we don't leave the island immediately, we risk being caught the later that day [if it happens in the morning, then that evening the black Pearl would be there, and if nighttime, then the following morning it would be WAITING for you, since we cant make them raid the town with cannonballs flying!]
 
Thankee Lord Nelson, the problem be I am not the fellow to do this.....have a mate of mine that might be able to, but alas he doesnt want to move from where he is....(another forum/game) and there be precious few left who could....I posted once asking for tips from CCC on what one needed to start but he has left for a bit as well....

Come to think about it, there are a whole lot of fellows that were here a month ago modding this fixing that....they just disappeared.......shame
 
To SuoiveD: How the HECK did you get 16 "Your Trusty Fists"??? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
