Bartolomeu Quest

[Jason]

I have played up to the point where I am suppossed to buy the bark. I return from Maigot with the tobacco and go the shop keeper in the bucaneers camp and he won't talk with me.

You are to proceed to Puertro Rico and board the vessel Anaconda to trigger the next quest. This is reflected in your quest log. You need to double click the scroll bar to activate that log so you can read the last entry.

I was stuck in similar position as you until I opened the quest files myself to take a look at the coding.

There used to be a time limit on completing the missions for the shop keeper. I think it was 60 days. ( Quest book should tell you if you have run out of time )

I also sometimes had trouble speaking to him, and just had to go back to an earlier save and keep going to see him till he talked to me, try seeing him at different times of day. k

I also think the shopkeeper does not talk to you if you go back too soon, so try and see him just a few days before your time runs out.

It does sound like an exceeded time limit again, though if I recall,
in that case the storekeeper isn't there anymore at all.

Ehm... Talisman, would you possibly be willing to consider making a walkthrough for the Bartolomeu/Assassin quest too?

Sure, I am checking the Jack Sparrow walkthrough at the moment as I know Capt Maggee made some changes in Alpha 10 but once that is done I will start. :hmm

I have never played the Assassin quest, so that will be exciting.

I last played Bartolomeu about 6 months ago, at the time I found it easy to follow if you pay attention to the dialogue and the quest Book. ( At the time I didn't think it needed a walkthrough )

The only thing you had to be aware of was that in the Quest Book, when a heading closes - a final entry is also posted under that heading.

So check any Quest Book header that has just closed - There should be a new last entry telling you what happens next or where to go.

Figured this out at last

Eugene Martin the shopkeeper in the Buccaneers Camp expects you to bring him back minimum quantities of the goods from the people he sends you to.

If you do not bring him enough, he will not talk to you ( just get ...... dialogue )

So you should not fill your hold too full of other things (eg food, rum, gunpowder, sails etc ) as the traders will only give you as much as you can carry, and if this is less than the minimum Eugene Martin expects then you get the ....... dialogue.

Also don't forget the time limits on these tasks.

Ah, yes. That makes sense.
