since i cant procede to the next level while boarding for some reason its blocked, i cant play the game until its fixed. i have tried everything, i have reinstalled the game with out the august update only with the july 19 one and it still persists, i reinstalled it without any updates and just pre build 13 and i still have the problem, i have run out of options so all i can do now is just not play the game untill it is fixed
 
I'm wondering if somehow the "activate control" key has been redefined. In my game, it's the spacebar. It may be the enter key instead. Try both and let me know.

Also, don't hit the activate key until a few seconds after your character puts away his sword on his own. I don't have the updated version of the game installed yet, so I'm guessing here at what the problem might be.

Nothing was changed in the controls department.

It is really weird why this isn't working for you. I tested a lot of boardings recently and although I did encounter lots of crazy and bad bugs, I could usually proceed to the next boarding deck. Do you always have this problem?

If you haven't done so already, try the following: Make a complete reinstall of your game, install Build 12, Pre Build 13 and the 19 July update. Then start a new game. Still not working? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
I found some code in my working version of LAi_boarding.c that activates the control another time in a different place in the code. But it shouldn't affect anyone not using the unfinished boarding code.

i have done the complete uninstall/reinstall of the game, put in build 12.1 and pre build 13 without updates, and with the july update, the one thats on your page and still i have the problem.....i guess when i installed the august update, some files from it that cause the boarding problem are still in my game even though i have uninstalled the august update from the game and my computer

and while testing it to see if it works, i put godmode on and board the french battleship off oxbay and i kill everyone on the top deck and i wait for the unlocked thing to show up and it never does.... i press space, F3, enter, everything on my keyboard and nothing happens....
 
Was a fresh install for me. captured one ship ( always they struck their colors ? what about fighting till death).
.at the second & third one ( after restarting the game) got stuck.so there is something that determines that.
the fact is , i think , that we can't proced further because there isn't the trigger for goods transfer
(the one with you versus dead man's head) ( trigger = place on the ship that activates this & code for this)

<b>on some ships</b>.

That's my opinion.
 
okay ive got an update, i boarded a battleship and was able to continue to the next screen but it was the transfer screen, so i dont know if its fixed or i am just not going to a second boarding area where i fight more crew and where i usually cant get to, i boarded all the french fleet outside oxbay and after i fought on the deck, i waited until HE put the sword away instead of pressing E and i was able to continue to the next area but every time it was the transfer screen so i dont know yet, i will play for a while boarding ships and see what happens and i will let u guys know what happens
 
i have the same problem

i board a ship i kill everybody. then i wait till he puts his sword away. But he dussent do that. so i put the sword away. and than i can do nothing at all presst al button. i dont no wat to do anymore. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
 
Is this the 3 August update or the 5 August one? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
There is only one difference between the 3 August and 5 August updates. In the 3 August version you'll be stuck on the second boarding deck and in the 5 August one you can continue. So use the 5 August one instead of the 3 August one! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
i deed
and i am stuck on the first deck and always trading is getting boring

geliefde reactie in nederlands

Alvast bedankt
 
You're stuck on the first deck? That'd odd. Haven't had that myself yet. Does that always happen?
<i>Je zit vast op het eerste dek? Vreemd. Heb ik zelf nooit gehad. Gebeurt dat elke keer?</i>

What do you mean with "trading is boring"?
<i>Wat bedoel je met "handelen is saai"?</i>
 
yes every time
ja iedere keer heel vervelend ben je lekker aan het spelen kan je niet meer verder en moet je je spel op nieuw laden.
en ik kan tevens niet met de mensen in de haven van de piraten haven spreken

en met handelen bedoel ik het wordt een beetje eentonig ik wil ook is een keer een paar schepen kapen

That sounds like the "Ghost Ships" bug. That one really does need fixing. If only I knew how to. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

Hello.

I have installed the last update,the one of the 16th of august, and i have now the boarding problem, i'm stuckin the second deck of the ship during a boarding.
I have tried with different characters, with different ships, but i cannot proceed with a boarding, the character don't sheat the sword and i'm stuck on the second deck. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
It didn't happen with the 5th august update.
 
Extract attached file in your PROGRAM\Loc_ai folder, start a new game and see if that fixes it.

The problem you have sounds like the same problem that occurred with the August 3 update, but which was fixed with the August 5 update. However, the file that caused the bug has been reset to default and that is why it is no longer a part of the modpack update. If you installed the August 3 update first, then the latest update, that might have re-introduced that bug. Doing as I decribe above should fix it again.

hello!
first fo all, thank you very much for the help, and for the work you do for the game. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

I had to put the surrender chance at 0.0 cause on 25 boardings i had 100% of surrenders, but decreasing that it work very well, no more being stuck at the second deck!

So it solved the problem, only in one occasion, the captain surrendered, and refused to became one of my officers, after that, disappeared i remained stuck in the captain quarter with two of my officers.
But on 25 boardings is happened only once, and i'd never had discovered it if it wasn't for the refusal of the captain.

thanks again for the help!
