Standard Storyline - Ending

Talisman

Talisman

Smuggler
Storm Modder
I get to the final fight with the Black Pearl and manage to board her. Fight crew and eventually kill captain. Then get Ransack screen.

Ransack screen only stays for a second ( not enough time to press buttons)
Then I got the final movie with Keira Knightly voice-over (see image) followed immediately by the game credits movie. Then my ship was returned to me.

I thought you used to be able to capture the Black Pearl and swap ships. :shrug

Perhaps it did not work this time for me because BP was badly damaged when I boarded her, virtually no hull left.

The BP started the final fight without full crew, full hull strength or sails.
 
After the fight with the Black Pearl I take Clement back to Lighthouse on Barbados.

Then Sail to Rocky Shore, Jamaica. Talk to Danielle on shore and go through jungle to Port Royale.

In Town Hall governor is Sir Henry Morgan :woot

Not Brin.

Morgan only has standard governor options - no dialogue to collect Silehard reward. :mm

Also the last 2 quest book headers ( Sneak into the Temple + After Final ) do not close.

No error log was generated. :shrug
 
The first error I can fix (had the same thing happen in the animists quest :modding)

The second one however Im not sure what the original intention was so not sure how to handle it :shrug

To fix the first one is this:
Code: 
case "Story_FaceTheBoss":
PostEvent("DoInfoShower",100,"s","");
QuestToSeaLogin_PrepareLoc("KhaelRoa", "Quest_Ships", "Quest_Ship_5", true);
QuestToSeaLogin_Launch();

bQuestDisableMapEnter = true;
Island_SetReloadEnableGlobal("KhaelRoa", false);

pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1 = "NPC_Death";
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1.character = "Barbossa";
// KK -->
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l2 = "location";
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l2.location = "KhaelRoa";
// <-- KK
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition = "Story_KillTheFinalBoss";
break;
With:
Code: 
case "Story_FaceTheBoss":
PostEvent("DoInfoShower",100,"s","");
QuestToSeaLogin_PrepareLoc("KhaelRoa", "Quest_Ships", "Quest_Ship_5", true);
QuestToSeaLogin_Launch();

bQuestDisableMapEnter = true;
Island_SetReloadEnableGlobal("KhaelRoa", false);

Pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1 = "Ship_HP";
Pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1.character = "Barbossa";
Pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1.quantity = 0;
Pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l1.operation = "=";
// KK -->
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l2 = "location";
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition.l2.location = "KhaelRoa";
// <-- KK
pchar.quest.Story_KillTheFinalBoss.win_condition = "Story_KillTheFinalBoss";
break;
 
Thanks Maggee :onya

Successfully Captured & Ransacked the Black Pearl & and end movie played properly.

:doff
 
So have you played through the side quests with Alpha 10 Talisman... now that we know that the main quest is 100% bug free (except for the annoying fort capture at Bridgetown) :modding

Only sidequest I have done is hiring Fred Bob. :ixi
Have a lot of work on over the next couple of weeks so won't have much time to play - but will try to write up the end of the the main quest walkthrough and put it on the Wiki :hmm

Ahoy Cap'n,
I have played a number of side quests in the standard storyline succfully - My completed quest book is as follows:
Arrival at Speightstown
down and out in?? (stormy start)
Patric and the Idols
Help The Boatswain
Sink the pirate Corvette
Escort Vigila Mendes' Ship
Zaid Murro's Problems
Saving Toff's Daughter
Artois Vosey
Hard Laobours of an Assassin
Help the Lady
Inform The Governor of the French Attack
Help the Church
Reconnoiter captured Speightstown city
Escort a ship with troops to Barbados and then meet an agent.
Wait for news from Silehard.
Get out of Jail. (some issues with Edgar - he does not show up at the ship)
The saga of the Blaque Family. (cannot hire Marc Blaque at end)
Deliver a closed chest.
Find the Traitor Raul Rheims.
Strange things going on in the Carribbean. (Animists quest).
Deliver a letter to the Pirate Chief.
Return the native art collection.
Rescue Researcher.
Deliver a prisoner to the Governor.
Continue searching for Rheims.
Lost Treasure on Cuba. (The sub quests usually dissapear from the quest boook on completion - this one did not - it went the same as the main quest ones on completion.)

Currently I am doing the Elizabeth shaw's Dissappearance sub quest - but have a problem - I will try it again and if it is not just a glitch (sometimes happens and when you re-load the previous save it works) I will detail it as a bug.

Hope this helps
Captain Cook :nk

Deliver a closed Chest.
 
Sweet thanks Cap'n Cook...

The two sidequests I was worried about the one you are currently doing and the animists quest which you completed which is a good sign :cheeky

There were a couple of minor issues - Bridgetown port does not have any texture on the ground - all other textures in this area are OK. The night lighting is wrong again for leaving Speightstown main area with Massoni (before going to the Oiseau.

The night lighting is wrong again for the second town area at night on Bridgetown.

Just completed the Elizabeth Shaw quest. I did have an issue that you were stuck on your ship after talking to Davy Jones and Elizabeth the first time. This was worked around in that I had to be facing Elizabeth and use the "enter" key and select sailing. After this you went to the sailing mode. If you walked away from Elizabeth, there were no options to go back to sailing mode and continue the quest. I changed a bit of the diaglue english to read a bit better.

I am going to tdo the Bartholomeu sub-Quest next. Starting in Cayman Tavern.

Down the track I would like to add and alternative bit the "after Final" dialogue as well - Danielle is a French Spy and it does not necessarily make sense if Nathanial is working for the English. I was thinking that the Blaque family quest could be reactivated a bit at this time and Nathanial marries the sister as an alternative to going off with Danielle. Danielle has already tried to kill Nathaniel once and was blood thirsty in the persuit of the Idol. All this time dependant.

Hope this helps.
Captain Cook. :onya

Edit: Tried to start Bartolomeu quest - but quest book does not update after talking to him in Cayman Tavern and he does not join me. Must be an error in the code. Will have a look if I get some more time tomoorow.

EDIT:Tried Bartholomeu sub-quest in standard storyline again after a new game and it works fine!?!?? Don't know what happened before on my previous game - code all looked OK as well. No bug that I could find.
 
For the Black Pearl capture, that should indeed work.
Maybe you should make the movie trigger only upon going to the worldmap?
It seems the movie disrupts the ransack interface.
Also, does the cursed Black Pearl get swapped with the uncursed one if you take her?

As for Sir Henry Morgan, that is just a simple period-dependent name change.
It still IS Brin and as such should provide the same dialog options for finishing the story properly.

While on the subject of period-dependent governor names, the Puerto Rico governor is also renamed in the standard storyline.
I'd like to know if all dialog and questbook texts referring to him updated properly to his new name.
 
Can you post a Bug Tracker entry for each sidequest that you have problems with?

I restored the Greenford and Oxbay town locations, which would indeed return the lighting error.
This can probably be fixed by creating new COL files through the game, as Thomas has found out.
I'm rather hoping somebody will eventually go ahead and do that.

Please share your improved dialogs when you're done.
Also, I would like an extension to the standard storyline. :yes

It does indeed become the Uncursed Pearl (with patched sails) ;)

That bit of code I posted doesnt take effect until after you leave ransack and as soon as you do Barbossa's ship will have a hp of 0 :cheeky (then the movie starts)
