Build 14 Beta 1

Read the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: these tell you to run the runme.bat which is very important as it changes some of the file locations around in RESOURCE as well as changing the PROGRAM_NEW to PROGRAM by itself (I hope)..

The default keys ARENT click anymore but W and S to move forward and backward. The cheap spyglass you can just look through, medium you can see name, supier you can see health and master you can see crew (I think)
 
Hey giuliootto! Nice to see you again! :woot

Did RunMe.bat run after the installer was complete?
Because PROGRAM_new was supposed to have been renamed to PROGRAM.
A lot of other things were supposed to have been done as well,
so if that didn't happen there's no telling what else didn't happen either.
Did you install to Program Files by any chance? I recommend installing elsewhere,
otherwise bad things happen when installing the modpack. :facepalm

The real problem is that in standard story line when i leave Oxbay and land on other island I can't move to foward or back direction, just left or right...
Click to expand...
Do W and S work? I might accidentally have changed the default controls...

Another issue is that medium spyglass shows only ship name... then only a blue line instead of other information.
Click to expand...
Realistic Game Mode is now on by default and this is intentional.
After all, a spyglass CAN'T tell you anything and only enlarge the view.
To go back to normal, switch to Arcade mode in the Options menu (new game required).

:gday Pieter,

'm happy to set sail in your boat again :sail

BTW, I think that RunMe.bat is executed by the Build14B1 setup: after the installation a DOS script run; and when it finished no RunMe.bat is located on POTC main folder.

I've installed the game on:

C:\GIOCHI\Pirates of caribbeans\

However, I think that the problem is related with escort mission and Atigua:

I got an escort mission from Oxbay (at the start of standard storyline) for Atigua;
I try to land to Martinica and I've no problem;
When I land to Atigua I remain stuck, but I can see the captain of the escorted ship stuck himself... Maybe something wrong with Atigua new location and escort ship script....

I will restart a new game right now: I want to see that I leave for all this time.

:bow bye, bye,
giuliootto
 
I would suggest maybe a reinstall as it appears the runme.bat didnt work propally. I just did a reinstall on mine to check and my PROGRAM_NEW disappeared by itself :shrug

I remember someone saying before Antigua was bugged for escort missions but I thought that was fixed :facepalm
 
I do recall testing an escort quest to Antigua that worked. :facepalm

If you still have a PROGRAM_new folder, it does mean RunMe.bat somehow wasn't allowed to run properly.
If everything goes right, the folder will be renamed properly automatically.

Light ModDB: 57
Light PiratesAhoy: 107

Not a bad score for a 7-year old game, I should say! :woot
 
We have got nearly 100 people watching the mod on ModDB, I hope that will increase now that its a BETA :)
 
77 people now; the number IS increasing quite steadily then. :yes

Congratulations on getting PotC, Oskar! And glad you like our work, of course. :cheeky
 
I have a problem. i am trying to take out the fleet thats atacking bridgetown in the standart storyline but every time a board a ship ( tried somo of the invasion ones and a lugger) i can't get to the seccond stage of the fight.
there is a sea icon on the left of the screen but not in the menu and the word sea is missing. the same goes for surrendering. i didn't have thes before. it started to happen after my geme crashed while i was boarding one of the infasion ships.
i managed to take one of the ships before it happend though but after i loaded the savedgame i couldn't get to the seccond stage of a boarding.
does anyone knows how to fix this.
sigh i think i just have to start a new game:facepalm
 
Please read the FAQ, as this problem is reported in there with an attempted FIX that I still dont know if it works!

I want confirmation :yes
 
When you see the "sea" icon just hit F3 or open the quick menu to get to the next stage (which in most cases is the plunder/capture screen).

this was the first thing i tried and it didn't work. but thanks anyway.

o and pieter could you please say which faq? i couldn't find the bur report page if thats what oyu mean
 
Pieter? Um Captain Maggee you mean?

The FAQ in this very forum just below this very topic called "Build Mod and Forum FAQ"
 
i've tried the fix and it works.
and i've encounterd a bug. when you capture the last of the english warships at bridge town and are at the screen to manage
the ships a black screen appears where you are supposed to return to shore but instead when you press escape you are at sea without menu's or ship
for anyone who has this problem press f2 it seams to teleport you ( don't know why). though the sea remans black until you teleport to clement.
