hey guys love the Build but...... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":c" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

>Game gets stuck on save screen at times

>Half the time the video is too messed up to play (just keep Restarting until it works <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> )

>50/50 chance of getting stuck on the deck of a ship when boarding. Nowhere to go...lock icon does not show up

>Random CTD

>CTD at times when loading port screen

Are there any fixes to this?
 
I've found one problem - when boarding to battle, sometimes you get one or two enemy not armed, and you have to kill them in order to continue plundering the ship... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />
 
The only one of those problems I've had, and I've only noticed since installing CCC's swak&amp, is the unarmed enemies on ships. Not that I've any compuncture about slashing them to bits, if they're going to stand in my way...
 
That screws up your reputation ROYALLY! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":c" border="0" alt="mad.gif" /> I had to kill off three of them in one boarding, and then sailed to a presumably neutral port to do business and was treated badly by everyone I met - I had to go rescue some damsels to get my rep back up to "NEUTRAL" (sheesh!!!) <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />

Muddy, getting stuck onboard a ship you're plundering - do you hit the spacebar anyhow? I think the lock doesn't show up sometimes but you can still get through.
 
Ahoy thar mateys! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

I'll start by thanking all those concerned for making a great (but buggy) game greater. Due to your efforts POTC is so much better.

The bug i've come accross is when swapping between ships while sailing I CTD everytime. If im on land it works fine. Not a big problem but I do prefer swapping to my lowest grade ship if i'm about to take a new one.

I've got UBI SOFT version with Build 12 installed over 11. Not sure if this is a known problem or if any body else gets it but I thought I should let someone know.
 
Now that´s strange, because for me it´s just the other way round, it crashes when switching ships on land or rather, at the port location. But I´ve got Build 11 only.

I remember that you could swap ships on the fly with no problem in Build 11.

I get the impression that this was changed so you could not change ships in the middle of a battle.

In Build 12 you can swap ships while sailing, only by sailing near the ship you want to swap with and getting the "exchange cargo" icon.

But that's like a different game entirely.

So much was added or changed/enhanced for build 12.
 
I know, i desperately want build 12, but I keep running into stonewalls. The last is, the installer crashes directly after starting it.
