Solved Bertrand Ogeron won't offer me a Quest

[Jack Orff]

Hi

After I finished The Hunter Quest, I sailed to La Tortue, as suggested in the Walkthrough. However, I did talk to the Tavernkeeper first (i haven't read that you shouldn't), but i have already done the Silver Train Quest. Now Bertrand Ogeron doesn't offer me a Quest and in the Bertrand Ogeron_dialog.h file is no hint to a Quest he would have for me.

I use Build 14 Beta 3.3

I'll go back to an older savegame and try if i get the Quest then, but i would prefer, if I don't have to go back, cause i made some big booty
can someone help?
thanx

Edit: with an older save it doesn't work, as well...

In Beta 3.3

The dialog files for the various stories are in ( e.g.Bartolomeu ) PROGRAM - Storyline - Bartolomeu - Dialogs - English ( for the.h text files )

The file you have attached is the general Governor dialog file for Ogeron from PROGRAM - Dialogs - English


The dialog with Ogeron should start :

"Captain Bartolomeu, himself?!",
"Nice to meet you, Governor.",
"What brings one of the most famous pirates to this island?",
"I'd like to know if you are preparing a new expedition with the Brethren of the Coast.",
"Let's say there is a possibility that this will happen.",
"What do you mean?",
"I need more information before starting a new expedition.",
"What kind of information?",

After you stop talking to Ogeron - you should be transported to Port - Daniel Montbars should meet you in the Port and talk to you.

You could try talking to Ogeron the walking to the Port and see if Montbars is there

The Battle of Aguadilla quest book header & entry does not start till after you talk to Montbars

 

[Jack Orff]

OK so here is the correct file.
it seems OK, but still the dialog for the Quest is not available

were exactly could i find Montbars, if he is there?

 

[Talisman]

Montbars should be in the Tortuga Port - down by the jetty if I remember correctly

If you have already done the Silver train quest ( which is given by the tavernkeeper in Totruga ) - then talking to the tavern keeper after that should not stop Ogeron from talking to you and giving you the Battle of Aguadilla quest.

So this seems like a bug in the story. @Bartolomeu o Portugues - do you have any ideas ?

After you talk to the Tavern keeper & talk to Ogeron can you post your System - Compile - Error log files from the main game folder here as attachments.

Also a Save Game from before you talk to Ogeron would be useful - if possible - ( you will need to archive or Zip it to be able to upload it here )


EDIT:-


You could try putting this code from the quests_reaction.c file in the console and executing it

  case "debut_tortue":
      Characters[GetCharacterIndex("Bertrand Ogeron")].dialog.currentnode = "gov_1";         
  SetCharacterShipLocation(characterFromID("Daniel Montbars"), "Tortuga_port");       
       AddQuestRecord("Hunter", "13");
  CloseQuestHeader("Hunter");           
       if(AUTO_SKILL_SYSTEM)
       {
         AddPartyExpChar(pchar, "Leadership", 20000);
         AddPartyExpChar(pchar, "Sneak", 200);
       }
       else { AddPartyExp(pchar, 20000); }     
  LAi_SetActorType(CharacterFromID("Elting"));
       LAi_ActorRunToLocation(characterFromID("Elting"), "reload", "reload_2_city", "none", "", "", "Elting_at_Douwesen", 8.0);
  break;

Then go and talk to Oregon and see if that works

 

[Jack Orff]

well I could'nt find him there...

Anyway, are these the files you need? there's no Error.log in the main game folder...

 

[Talisman]

I have just noticed in your Quest Book - in The Hunter Quest - you killed Elting.


I don't think this should stop The Battle of Aguadilla quest - but I am not sure perhaps @Bartolomeu o Portugues could confirm

I know it stops the Aztec treasure & Cartagena Firework.


I have tried executing the code in my previous post through the console - but that did not work -- Sorry for the moment I have run out of ideas



EDIT :- I think there is a strong possibility that killing Elting means that you cannot do the Battle of Aguadilla quest & the walk through is wrong on this - this is because the code that actions the the code I posted in the post above is in Johan Elting_dialog.c So I think you have to be Friends with Elting to get the Aguadilla quest -- but the quest writer @Bartolomeu o Portugues would have to comfirm this.

 

[Jack Orff]

well thanks for your help so far

one thing I haven't tried yet is the console-thingy. how exactly do i enter this text you've posted in the console? In what console anyway?

Edit: ok i see it didn't work in your case, so it probably won't work in my case as well...

please check the post I posted & edited while you were posting -- if that makes sense

 

[Jack Orff]

So, I should forget about the Battle of Aguadilla and go to Roxanne again to go on with the story, probably?
Well I'll try that tomorrow...

@Jack Orff

If killing Elting means that you cannot do the Battle of Aguadilla - then I think you have come to the end of the main quest story - since the last 2 parts ( Aztec Treasure & Cartagena Firework ) definately only work if Elting is alive ( he appears in both of them )

RIGHT

 

[Talisman]

RIGHT

Thanks - I have updated the walk through on the Wiki.

 

[Jack Orff]

OK, then the time has come to go back and see how the story ends if Elting survives The Encounter with me

thanks for the Help
