Stuck in Blue Bird quest...

LittleMorgan

Landlubber
The Bermuda shipyard owner told me that there is no smuggeling through his dungeon and I got the log entry that I have to search Bermuda for its base of operation.
I paid the 20k for him to open the dungeon, went to Ruined Shore through the tunnels (on foot) and then later I circled around the whole island with my feet but there are no smugglers or the Blue Bird anywhere to be seen...
What am I missing?
 
sail to one of the beaches go inland find the cave entrance there, i forget which beach it was exactly but only 2 beaches to sail to on the island, when inside you will see smugglers moving cargo at some point then you got to run back to your ship and find the bluebird waiting in harbor nicely for you to get back on your boat before attacking.
 
I sailed to Ruin Shore with my fleet, entered the cave/dungeon entrance there and searched the whole dungeon with my landing party but there are no smugglers anywhere <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
Either my quest is broken or something else is missing...
 
hmm not sure i kinda just stumbled along that quest till i finished it yours might be bugged, or maybe you need to hit the right trigger spot, like i was moving through the cave and your mc goes stationary dialogue pops up "i hear something" or something like that then you see the guys hauling stuff through the cave. maybe take another run through the cave make sure you cover the whole thing.

You must enter into a dead end, then there smugglers.
 
I've had this problem too, this one seems bugged. I couldn't win the fight with the Bluebird, so I reloaded to before I entered the cave, but the smugglers didn't show up. I had to reload all the way to before I even landed on Bermuda and spoke to the shipyard guy about the tunnel for the ship to appear.
 
Still not working.
I reloaded a savegame right before I talk to the shipyard guy about the tunnel.
Talked to him, got the log entry, quick-sailed to Ruin Shore, entered the dungeon (this time without my fighters), searched every chest and every dead end/corner and there is no one there.

Are there any more hidden conditions?
Ship class/number of ships I can have, time of the day the smugglers are there, do I have to trigger and defeat the undead spawn in the dungeon before, do I need to pay the 20k to have the shipyard guy open his side of the dungeon door.... anything?
 
I did none of those and the ship appeared for me. Try reloading an even earlier save, if you have one. Otherwise I'm out of ideas.
 
Apparently this quest is seriously broken here <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

I reloaded a save from before I talked to the shop owner in Puerto Principe about the smuggling.
Talked to him, got log entry that sends me to Bermuda shipyard, went there, talked to the shipyard guy about the tunnels, got log entry to search Bermuda island, sailed to Ruin shore and entered dungeon - still no smugglers there.

Oh well, I guess that means no Blue Bird then for me.
Ty all for trying to help me though.
 
The trigger that makes the smugglers appear is launched when you head an specific location on that cave (not the dungeon/passage from the shipyard). You must enter the cave (your fighting companions don´t appear, so you´re alone, if you´re with your companions it´s a wrong cave), head to the lightning orb (no touching) and turn right to a narrow passage with some strange stalagmites iluminated from the inside of that narrow passage. When you walk in that narrow passage the "I heard something..." dialog appears.

Hope it helps.

<b>BEST REGARDS</b>
 
I have a problem with this quest too.. I went to port principe, spoke with the store keeper, then went back to bermuda and there I tried speaking with the shipyard dude and the store keeper but they have no dialog refering to this quest, and nothing happens when I go in any cave in Bermuda, anyone can help me please?
