Build 14 Alpha 9

Wow quick release of Patch 3! Keep up the good work. This HAS to be my favorite pirate game EVER. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Egads! The modders should take over updating Windows! It'd be fixed by now! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
You sure? We haven't even finished Pirates of the Caribbean yet, 6 years after the release date! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
At the beginning of the Legend of Jack Sparrow, when I first start and go to the port. The game will hit a lag spike and drops down to 3-5FPS when I'm facing the ship frame sitting next to the water. Then when I face away, towards the water and my ship it runs at 100+FPS.

Also when I'm out at sea and I'm sailing around the island, when I look at the island in the game, the game will lag. But, I don't have this problem in Patch 2.

Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
 
Hi,

Is anyone else getting the escort missions ....say, in Bridgetown....to escort to Bridgetown?You get the mission in the tavern...teleport to the port and collect your hard earned cash.It's the same time after time in all locations.

damski.
 
I'm hoping that might be fixed in the Development Resources. Pirate_KK made a whole bunch of modifications to that code.

It's a lot easier to find bugs when they're all grouped together on the same "sub-forum" and we can immediately see them all.
We can also clearly mark them as "Reported, Confirmed, Fixed, Closed, etc." and also assign a priority to them.

So <i>pleeeaaase</i> post any bugs you've encountered since the release of Alpha 9 and that are not yet fixed in Patch 3 on the <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showforum=38" target="_blank">Bug Tracker</a>!!!<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

They seem to work to work reasonably well, though I haven't yet tested much and encountered at least one pretty bad bug. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
Hi,
today I installed patch 3, and everything works good.
But when I get to the moment when I am talking with barbossa to take him as first mait to take Cortez tresure in Isla Demuerte, dialog end on ,,What do you mean" by Jack and barbossa dosen't join to me as a new party member. I try to skip it and go to Isla Demurte with out him, but there I am need him to start another dialog (I remember from patch 2 verison :p)

Mayby this is problem caused by wrong enter in dialog events?
 
You are saying it DID work in Patch 2 and NOT in Patch 3? That's not good. Do you get anything related in your <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=9234" target="_blank">log files</a>?
Just for clarity's sake, were you playing the Billy Brock or Sir Christopher Mings path?
 
Sry for language, I tried to write fast. Yes it worked in Patch 2 and NOT in Patch 3... :/
I met Billy Brock on the beggining when helping dame, and on the end killing him. After that I met BECKET and played simmilar like first time on Patch 2.
 
Ok I fix it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
Just unpack Build 14 Alpha 9 to new folder and copy from there barbossa_dialog to the game destination and overwirite on the new(from patch3) one <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
Dialog carry on, without any crashes.
 
Hello gentlemen. I haven't played POTC in a long time, and I decded to unpack it, get the latest build mod, and give it a go.

Now, you fellows always do such an excellent job on these things I know you must spend every waking moment programing.

As such, I've found there is a large amount of information here on exactly what to do for old build mods. The forums might could use just a tad bit of sweeping up. The information for the latest mod I'm less sure of.

As I read it, I need to first install POTC, then build 13... THEN build 14 alpha 9... then patch 3.

Do I need patches 1 and 2? Wait! I just found information that 3 is replaced 1 and 2. What about the "small patch?"

Why do I need build 13 if I'm DLing the full version of 14 alpha 9?

I can't just install build 14 Alpha 9 full version and ignore all these other files can I? Nah.
 
Just install PotC, restart your PC, then install the build 13, follow the readme instructions, PERFECTLY. Then install 14 alpha 9, follows the readme perfectly, then install Patch 3, and your set to go <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Just message me if your still having problems, I'll be glad to help you.
 
I find another problem in moment when I steal Interceptor.
When I aboard Interceptor (In fight or Interceptor hoist white flag) I can't fight with norrington (I fought with him in first game on Patch 2) and he is still trying to stand up. It look like that he is siting in one moment and then animation shows he is staning up but in unknown reason he is again siting on the deck. I can't talk with him, and the same capture the ship... Someone know what files include his behaviour?

He is sitting because he was knocked out on the dock. There is a character reset command in the Quest Reaction but it doesn't seem to be latching.
You should be able to talk to him though.

You are also double posting. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />

Well, I can get the game to start, but I seem to be having a few problems. I keep getting a problem where I enter a new area and suddenly there are no exits, and my menu has all possible selections, and none of them work. This is accompanied by being able to shoot infinitely, and most of the people disappearing.
