Finding a family member? (Possible spoilers)

[MaxSteele]

I received a couple of pieces of a map that shows the location of my lost sister.

Currently, I see "Sister!" written on the map over a picture of a geyser just outside of a town.

I have travelled to the town, got out of my boat, and found the geyser that was on the map.

However, I've wandered all around it and have never found anything to do with my sister.

Am I looking for some picture to click on? Am I supposed to just walk around until a message pops up saying I found her? I'm not sure how to go about doing this....

If you find where the X is.. you'll find a cabin. Just walk up to it.

Sometimes it can be tricky though. I had all four map segments to the map for my uncle and I'll be damned if I did not walk around in the jungle for 3 or 4 months... it was in another spot all along <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Possibly a spoiler here:

When you are searching for lost relatives and you find em there is a little house/shed that you are to walk up to (NOT! the abandoned thingys) and when you come close enough a movie will be played. Same things goes for lost citys, montalabans hidden hideout, hidden treasures, etc.

Hehe, I was looking for my sister once, then I just stumbled across the lost city of the incas, worth 50.000 gold. That was lucky.

I think if everything is calculated from the beginning of the game (location of treasures, sister, lost cities etc), it shoud be possible to go searching without any kind of map. Sure, it would take a whole lot of time, but I think it's possible.
