I made the leap to Built 14 Alpha 8.5.......

First let me say that the modifications to the game are AMAZING! You should all pat yourselves on the shoulder. Really great work!

I have been playing build 13 final for a while now, so all the new towns and islands are really cool. It's been a good culture shock getting used to the new game features.

But, flattery aside, I'm having trouble getting the black pearl to work properly in game. I've tried setting it as my starting ship, and doesn't work. I've used the console, also to no avail. When I set it as a starting ship, the game crashes when I go to leave the ship. If I'm on land and use the console the game crashes when I go to port (or at least I was going to port the time it happened). I've even had the game crash when starting a new game with the black pearl as my starting ship.

Am I doing something wrong? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
I tried to buy the pearl from Van der..... on Hispaniola and as soon as I approach the shore where I would "see" the pearl, I encounter CTD.

So, again, I wonder what I'm doing wrong.
 
Is the pearl right in Ships_init?????

I've had the same prob when I was using build 13....or are you using right now build 14 alpha 8.5????

because in build 14, if you set another ship as start ship, sometimes you can't walk...
 
I'm pretty sure the Black Pearl works fine in Build 14 Alpha 8.5, provided it's installed correctly.
Please note that the Pearl's code-name is now "BlackPearl" and no longer "theBlackPearl" as in Build 13.
 
Pieter, do You know how to change ur own nickname/log-in name?????
because I want another name^^ the name of a pirate: Francois Olonais or something else like.....Cap'n Storm or Cap'n DesertStorm
 
I don't think you can change your own forum username, but I can do it for you. Send me a PM with your preferred username and I'll change your display name (the login name will stay the same).
 
My sincerest apologies. I just notice that the Black Pearl does NOT work fine in Alpha 8.5 even if you do install correctly.
It appears there's two rey files missing, causing the game to crash.
Tomorrow I'm uploading a patch for Alpha 8.5 that will include these two files. Stand by. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />
 
This problem should be fixed if you install the newly-released Build 14 Alpha 8.5 Patch 1 (phew; what a mouth-full! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" /> ).

Thanks Pieter, I'll give it a try!!

BTW, will you be adding the movie ships to you build 13 update?
 
Yes, the movie ships will be a part of the Build 13 update when I manage to make it.
Additionally, I'll make sure to add Hendrick Vanderdecken, your go-to guy if you want to buy cursed, quest and movie ships. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
One more thing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

I thought I saw a thread here where someone addressed the lag during cannon fire as well as when you are moving through the interface icons and screen icons (like selecting fast travel), but i cant seem to find it again. Is there a fix for this?
 
I wish. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
The cannon-fire lag still plagues me too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
