Guide Treasure Quests

I can't seem to get the "hand" icon to appear when i'm at that spot on the Cuba beach. It says "by the big rock" and i positioned myself exactly in accordance with the screenshot. But... no hand icon, no treasure. Can anybody help me?
 
Hello, I'm a new member from France. At first, you have made a great work with this mod, it's really impressive <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> .

I woudld like to point you a bug. I'm using the build 14 Alpha 7 on a french base of POTC. And Treasure quests don't work. When I arrive on any location where it should be a chest, I find something else (swords, potions...), never chests with gold or some stuff. PLEASE HELP. I try today with only the buid 13 with no modification of internal settings and his friends...will see. But the 14A7 is better <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/william.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":will" border="0" alt="william.gif" />
 
How's your luck skill? There's always the chance there is no treasure there, especially if you have a low luck skill.

Welcome to the forum! Another French member. I suppose we ought to stop making jokes about the French, then... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />
 
i'm very seriously contemplating this matter right now. ok, i'll look at this from the bright side. how about you talking to that french governor about sending all those manowars after me, and i stop blowing them full of holes in return?

Esseyer le Build 13 Final. C'est plus stable. (Je sais, ca va prends du temps de uninstall et reinstall)

C'est normale, du temps en temps il n'y a rien. Quand c'a passe, il y a un epee, mais c'est tout.
Il faut avoir plus de chance. Si vous trouvez un First Mate avec un chance de 10, et leur metre comme officer dans votre party au debut, il va mieux; mais il y a toujour un chance de rien.
Aussi, il faut pas accepte un nouveaux Treasure Quest avant que vous avez finir le dernier. Mieux: de que vous avez recu le Treasure Quest, fait eux dabord que le Main Quest. Ne rien fait qui change le Quest Log avant que vous avez trouve le tresor.
Desole pour ma petit comprehension de la Francaise, 'suis American.

do us all a favor and don't write in french, ok? it's pretty unreadable for me, and probably some others.
 
My French isn't all too great either. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
well, i know it comes down to hireing a first mate with 10 luck, although i doubt this would work. i think only your personal luck counts. he also says you should only do one treasure quest at a time, which is very true indeed. that's about all i can make out, which i think is pretty impressive with my french. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Haven't I seen some posts written in Dutch, or in German some times ago?... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Shall I translate it in dutch for you Morgan? (PS this Morgan vs simple virtual sailor is becoming annoying. Morgan accepteer nou gewoon dat fransen erg standvast zijn met taalkwesties en dat het aan jouw en niet aan hen ligt dat frans onverstaanbaar is <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> :p Couldn't resist. And SVS could you also stop with defending the french?)

Allright the translation in dutch (not literally):

Gebruik build 13 final, die is stabieler (Ik weet dat het tijd gaat kosten om het te deinstaleren en opnieuw te instaleren)

Het is erg normaal dat er soms niets is. Wanneer dit gebeurt is er een zwaard/sabel, maar dat is alles.
Je moet dus meer LUCK/geluk hebben. Zo/dus zoekt u een schipper met 10 LUCK, en je zet hem als officier bij uw groep.
In het begin gaat het goed, maar je hebt niet altijd geluk.
Ook is het niet nodig om een nieuwe Treasure Quest te accepteren nadat je de vorige hebt afgemaakt. Beter: nadat u de Treasure quest heeft ontvangen, doet u dat eerder dan de Main Quest. De Questlog verander niet nadat u de schat heeft gevonden.

Verontschuldinging voor mijn beetje verstand van frans, ik ben amerikaans.

I think that it was reasonable good french Henry. But the sentence about the Main Quest was a bit weird.
Is it now clear for you Morgan <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Agreed. It's not funny anymore. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
i was getting bored with it anyway. ask SVS why he's making such a problem out of it. did noone notice the post where i mentioned that i was again the in-game french?

i figured it was something like that, yes. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
I don't care WHY there was a problem, but we're going to END it here and now!
 
fine with me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
question!

i got some treasure quests....then i found out that i cant find the Oxbay treasure and there are other ones that i cant take anymore, such as the Cayman Kai treasure.

My question is: Am i able to restart the treasure quests that i didnt manage to complete due to the fact that i can make only one per time? I mean, will some npc sell me the quest that i already have? (i dont want to start everything again <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sleep.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="-_-" border="0" alt="sleep.gif" />')

After finishing all the quests and learning everything that is new in the build mod 13 final, i will try the build mod 14 alpha and play for real <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />
 
Play for real with the Build 14 Alpha? Beware; it's not called "Alpha" for nothing. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />

With the treasure quests, there is always the chance that the map sold to you is a dud and that there is no actual treasure. Still you should be able to find at least an empty chest to update your quest record. In Build 13 you can take on another treasure quest which will replace the original one and hopefully you'll have more luck then.

I do wonder how this works in the Build 14 Alpha where some code has been added to prevent you taking two quests at once and accidentally erasing the previous quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
ops, i meant Build Mod 14, not the alpha....of course, i will wait the mod to be released....

well, less than one hour after i posted here, there was a man that sold me the map treasure to Cape Francos (or something like that), exactly the last treasure quest that i managed to finish. It quite answered my question ^^

But i still have a quest to find the treasure in Oxbay, which i cant find any....one in Cayman Kai, but i cant find it either....and another one that i dont remember which was....

The problem that im worry the most is that i found a treasure chest (empty, unluckly), but my quest is still active in the quest log. I dont remember which was, i will post after a play the game again
 
Do you know about <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=7655" target="_blank">this</a> thread? There you can find instructions to find all the treasures.
Edit: Uhm... never mind. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
