    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    Easily enough fixed, though it will only show up in a new game. In "PROGRAM\Locations\init\Conceicao.c", find the definition for "Smugglers_Tavern" and add this to the section for 'reload.l2':Locations[n].reload.l2.disable = 1; The cause is the section for 'reload.l3' in the definition for...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    The translation files in all languages will need a new line for "Secretary Tobias Knight". Otherwise changing the line to 'TranslateString("Secretary Tobias", "Knight")' will have no effect. If 'TranslateString' can't find a translation for the combined words then it will translate them...

    What is the difference in Russian between "knight" by itself and "knight" as in "German knight"?

    WIP Improve Baldewyn Coffier & Arnaud/Sabine Matton Sidequests

    Update: Marc Blacque can now be told to get a job as Arnaud's assistant, then tell you about the account book. Meanwhile, after Baldewyn Coffier has told you about the falling number of traders, you can tell him you want to help more but don't know how, which allows him to give you hints about...

    Thanks for that. I'll include that change in the next update. "Shuggy" and "Garry" are already in "RESOURCE\INI\TEXTS\<various languages>\characters_names.txt".

    Sidequest characters as PC's

    I forgot to mention - there's a much simpler way of preventing player Will Turner from meeting sidequest Will Turner already in place. If you're playing as Will Turner, the sidequest is blocked. But apart from the obvious advantage of allowing player Will Turner to get this quest, the new code...

    Sidequest characters as PC's

    Done and tested. First, I ran a FreePlay as Will Turner. In San Juan tavern, I saw Claire Larrouse; in Tortuga (after using cheatmode to zap myself up to level 12), I saw Eduardo Villanueva and Captaine Chevalle: Then I did it all again, but this time as Claire Larrouse. So it was...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    Have you tested this? Try putting this into "console.c": for(i = 1; i<=7; i++) { Characters[GetCharacterIndex("Maltese_soldier" + i)].lastname = TranslateString("","Soldier"); } Assuming I haven't made a typo there, that should produce the on-screen message "Executed Console" - if it...

    Sidequest characters as PC's

    The basic idea is that the new code will check the player character. The quest characters should only change if you are playing as Will Turner or Elizabeth Swann. If you are playing as anyone else, the characters remain as they are. FreePlay Johan Elting will still meet Will Turner and...

    Sidequest characters as PC's

    For my next trick, here's Claire Larrouse sitting in San Juan tavern waiting for someone to join her expedition: In an alternate universe, i.e. another game, I'm Claire Larrouse: That's not done by renaming myself. I've re-enabled the "name" attributes for model "50_33_40Claire", previously...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    2: It is normal for the port to appear if you fly a friendly flag, and for the fort to appear if you fly a hostile flag. In particular, if you fly a Spanish flag then Cartagena should appear and San Felipe fort should not. If you fly a hostile flag then San Felipe should appear and Cartagena...

    WIP Improve Baldewyn Coffier & Arnaud/Sabine Matton Sidequests

    Sabine's part in the quest is now done. If Arnaud hates you because you ransomed Sabine and the governor accuses you of kidnapping, you can say that she's outside and he can ask her himself. He wants that to happen in another room so you have no influence on what she says. You can watch as a...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    @Jack Rackham: For what it's worth, I just downloaded both those files, unzipped them, copied them in order into one folder, then compared that to the 20th May update. Apart from a minor change to "animals.c" and a single line added to "interface_strings.txt" which refers to a new location that...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    1: "Cave shore" is translated in "interface_strings.txt", and we've seen this with other locations - for some reason, although there is a translation, it is not used in sailing fast travel. We never did find out why.

    WIP Improve Baldewyn Coffier & Arnaud/Sabine Matton Sidequests

    The first piece of evidence turned out to be trivially easy as it's already there. If you ask any of the permanent citizens wandering about town about the local trader (you may need to talk to the citizen several times before you get this option), the citizen doesn't name Arnaud Matton and...
