    Might as well ask... even if i suspect I know the answer

    In your POTC directory there should be a config.exe file of some sort that you can use to change what resolution you are using and possibly have it in windowed mode. I never use it myself as using a higher resolution plays havoc with my game and the mouse becomes sluggish <img...

    Crashing at Conceicao outskirts.

    Have you tried going through the Conceicao outskirts with this previous save? It might be that your newer save has been corrupted and your older save might be OK. You could also try getting an error log from your newer save by using the PotCModHelper.exe program that is in the TOOLS folder of...

    Going From Map mode to Onship Mode?

    Not everyone as some of the men are actually your crewmen and if you start killing them then you probably will end up dying. Also check what level you are playing at as the higher that is the harder the sword fights will be. Another thing is that that if you are boarding or being boarded by a...

    Build 11 + Catalina's graphic mods

    Most of Catalina's other graphical changes are in the Extra Textures optional update that you can download. If you try installing the old packages they will overwrite some of the code in Build 11 and that will casue problems as you have found out. I suggest that you unstall the game and then...

    Stop the crosshair from turning red?

    I'm fairly sure that it isn't possible to fire just one cannon as that is probably in the game engine and we can't modify that at all. I'm not sure where the code is that stops the crosshair from flashing is. There is a small possibility that this is also in the game engine, if so then this...

    Stop the crosshair from turning red?

    It certainly is possible to do it and pretty easy too. In the PROGRAMSEA_AI folder you will find a file called AICameras.c Open this file up in Notepad and search for the following lines: <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div...

    Keep playing after beating the game?

    You will have to start a new game with Build 11, however it is possible to add the code to enable play to continue after completing tyhe main quest manually, here's a link to some more info: <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.net/content/view/17/27/"...

    Mefisto!!!

    Try running the Build update as this was a known problem that was sorted out in one of the updates. To run an update on the Build just run the install program again and running updates will be an option. Be aware that the update overwrites any settings that you've changed in the...

    Wich difficulty level is the closest one to original (b11) ?

    I believe that the Rush mod adds a key that lets you use the Rush perk.

    New mod IDEAS

    It sounds realistic but would be fairly hard to code so it doesn't interfere with any quests or cause problems with a citizen talking to you when you are being attacked by thieves.

    Strange Problem (spoiler?)

    Are you running the game with any mods? As I've only heard of similar problems when running with a stock installation of the game. If you are not using any mods then the only thing that I can suggest is that you go back to a saved game from just before Danielle suggest that you attack...

    Need Modding Help - First Person Immersion

    I suspect that you've not had any response because not many people would want to play the game from a First Person perspective. Possibly the only way that you might get this to work would be to modify all of the dialogs so that when they are complete then you would go back into First Person...

    Problem with the Build

    Virus checkers have been known to cause some problems with POTC, so I always disable my Noron whenever I play. Are you using the lates version of Build? The newest Build should run the RunMe.bat file automatically when the option is selected on the Inatall program. There are a few Aussies...

    BUILD 11 BUGS ONLY

    Koor, If you press the T key just before you board your ship after accepting a pirste hunting quest then that should stop the CTD and NathanKell has added some "code fixing" code to that hotkey that should fix most problems.

    A hand with the animist bug?

    The best way to see if you are running the latest is to find the b11update.txt file in your POTC folder and open it up and check that the date near the top is `2004-05`-02b If you haven't got that file then you haven't got an updated version of the Build.

    Where's the info on extra ships stored?

    I believe that this is stored in the saved game but there might be a way to change the ships name by using a command like <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Characters1.ship.name = "Marie Celeste";<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--> With the...

    A hand with the animist bug?

    I suggest that you run the Build Update as there is a possibility that the download that you've got isn't at the latest level. Before you do that I suggest that you copy down the settings that you changed in the BuildSettings.h file as that gets overwritten when you update. You can stop the...

    BUILD 11 BUGS ONLY

    'Nathaniels Crewman' only occurs at that spot with the Clair Larousse quest. I suspect that you might have "hired" him and then lost him somewhere. The only easy fix would be to find an old saved game either with Larousse or even before you have hired him. The hard fix to this would be to...

    How do you make quests ?

    <b>england</b>, Before you start making a quest I suggest that you find a solid brick wall and run at it head first as fast as you can. If you still want to write a quest when you regain consciousness then read the tutorials <img...
