Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

[AkrimalS]

1: How far are you into the game? Have you been to the port yet without fast travel?

Try starting a FreePlay as a Spanish character with any background that starts you at San Juan. From there sail to Havana port, then go to the town centre and see if the same happens.

In FreePlay there is a transition to the port. So it's something in the Ardent storyline.

2: Do you find that chest in any other ship which you board? Not your own - attack an enemy ship, fight your way to the cabin, duel the captain and then see if the chest is there. If it is, I can easily add it to the quest cabin. If it's not, assume you bring the chest with you when you take over a new ship for yourself. Likewise, a captured ship will have a ship's locker and a weapon chest containing random equipment, but only the ship's locker and weapon chest in your own cabin will contain whatever you put there, and they'll continue to contain your equipment when you take a new ship for yourself.

It seems that this is only in the quest location.

Where were you in the story when you were trying to fast travel to Havana port?

Where were you in the story when you were trying to fast travel to Havana port?

This happens after I return from the slave mine to the city of Havana with the team. The location where the tavern is located, I still need to talk to the captain of the ship. Most likely this is an isolated incident in the plot, because after that I got a port.

 

[Grey Roger]

Yes, that is a special incident. Your crew is supposed to meet you in the port but they haven't got there yet. To make sure they arrive when they should, I programmed a quest case to happen when you go to the port gate. The fast travel mechanism may block fast travel to the port if the reload to the port is being used for a quest.

Some bugs from people on discord:
1) (Bartolomeu) In order for Soares to join us after the operation in Havana to rescue him, we need to empty the cell in the passengers, otherwise he will stand like a pillar on the beach and will not react to anything.
2) I am completing the Woods Rogers line quest 5th reward.
I jump across the rooftops to the shipyard and take the 5th pistol.
Then I get stuck in the textures. There is no activator for going down.
(I checked this and it seems that if you don’t take the pistol in the barrel and go further, you won’t come back, and the quest checks for the presence of this pistol in order to jump. But according to the author, he took it.) Case "shipyard_loft9".
3)Mephistopheles - not translated for free play.

 

[Grey Roger]

1: I've never seen that problem and I've played the "Bartolomeu" storyline several times. However, although there certainly seems to be code to make the prison empty, it may not be in the right places to have any effect. In "quests_reaction.c", move this line:

Locations[FindLocation("Havana_prison")].vcskip = true;

... from case "tuerdansprison_rox" to case "entrar_havana_jail_rox". Move the same line from case "tuerdansprison" to case "entrar_havana_jail". That should fix it if you chose to kill Johan Elting and Roxanne Lalliere is helping you to rescue Emilio Soares, and also if you chose to ally with Johan Elting and he's helping you.

2: @Jack Rackham, have you any idea what is going wrong here?

3: Add a translation for "Mephistopheles" to "RESOURCE\INI\TEXTS\RUSSIAN\Storyline\FreePlay\characters_names.txt" at the bottom of the section for "StartStoryline.c", just under the line for "Gules".

Incidentally, have a look at this:
PTBR Translation
@Peter Norton found that "Hendrick Vanderdecken_dialog.c" contains embedded dialog text and has separated it out into "Hendrick Vanderdecken_dialog.h". (He also noticed "Gunsmith_dialog.c" but you already spotted that some time ago and we fixed it.)

 

[AkrimalS]

... from case "tuerdansprison_rox" to case "entrar_havana_jail_rox". Move the same line from case "tuerdansprison" to case "entrar_havana_jail". That should fix it if you chose to kill Johan Elting and Roxanne Lalliere is helping you to rescue Emilio Soares, and also if you chose to ally with Johan Elting and he's helping you.

Bring it back otherwise Elting will not kill the guards, but will say that he killed. I have a save and Emilio does not join us if I have 4 officers in the case "partir_bahia".
I changed SetOfficersIndex(PChar, -1, GetCharacterIndex("Emilio Soares"));
on
SetOfficersIndex(PChar, 1, GetCharacterIndex("Emilio Soares"));
And then Emilio joined me.
I don't really understand the code, but I looked it up in the Jack Sparrow storyline for the "After_Tortuga_port_cleanup" case.

 

[Grey Roger]

That's because the number in 'SetOfficersIndex' is the slot where the officer is to go. If it's -1, the officer will go to the lowest free slot and will fail if there is no free slot because you have a full set of officers. If it's 1, the officer will go to slot 1, and if you already have an officer in slot 1 then Emilio replaces that officer.

A better fix is:

if(SetOfficersIndex(PChar, -1, GetCharacterIndex("Emilio Soares")) == GetCharacterIndex("Emilio Soares")) SetOfficersIndex(PChar, 1, GetCharacterIndex("Emilio Soares"));

'SetOfficersIndex' is actually an integer function. It returns a number. If it can't assign the officer, it returns the index of the officer you're trying to assign. If it's assigning the officer to a slot which is already full, it returns the index of the officer being replaced, otherwise it returns -1, and it will also return -1 if the officer it's trying to assign is already your officer.

So this version tries to put Emilio into any free slot. If there isn't one, it forces him into slot 1.

You will also need to do this at case "partir_bahia_rox". This is where you rescue Emilio Soares if you chose to kill Johan Elting, so Roxanne Lalliere is helping with the rescue.

You can see the same code in the "Assassin" storyline at case "spyoxbay".

2) I am completing the Woods Rogers line quest 5th reward.
I jump across the rooftops to the shipyard and take the 5th pistol.
Then I get stuck in the textures. There is no activator for going down.
(I checked this and it seems that if you don’t take the pistol in the barrel and go further, you won’t come back, and the quest checks for the presence of this pistol in order to jump. But according to the author, he took it.) Case "shipyard_loft9".

When you are moved to goto9 (in reach of pistol5) there is only one thing you can do: pick up the gun. After that you are moved to the edge of the loft and next out in the air.
From where you fall down to the shipyard floor.

So I can't see "going further without pistol5" happening. There's no walk patch up there so you are being moved from spot to spot.
I'm sorry but I can't repeat the bug.

I found some other bugs though when using this jump start
6) To Port Royal: TERRACE to LIBRARY. (pistol5) You couldn't get in to wr_residence from wr_terrace. Fixed now.

 

[AkrimalS]

1) Could you please tell me what could be the reason why the trigger from Claire Voyant_dialog.c is not launched in beyond-new-horizons. Here's the error.
2) In addition, it seems that the name has become untranslatable for two versions. I think this happened after Pyle was bandaged.

Can you load a savegame from before that point, play again up to the point where you get the error message, then post "compile.log", "system.log", and "error.log" if it exists?

@Jack Rackham: I haven't figured out where "Howard" and "Pyle" stop being translated, but I've found where that attempt to trigger quest case "sloop6_A" is happening. It's in "blaze_dialog.c" case "HOP_is_read", triggered from quest case "HOP_read_check" if you've read all four books:

    case "HOP_is_read":
        PlaySound("VOICE\ENGLISH\blaze_sigh.wav");
        Dialog.Text = DLG_TEXT[631];
        Link.l1.go = "exit";
        AddDialogExitQuest("sloop6_A");
    break;
