FAQ for new members

I talked to a guy in Oxbay, and got a Silvery Cross from him. Where do I go to get rid of it? I cant save!

 

[morgan terror]

well, that's exactly what he said what would happen, wasn't it? just give it back to him.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

You have to give it back to another monk somewhere. He should've told you which monk and where to find him.

 

[morgan terror]

that's new. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_confused.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="icon_confused.gif" /> i thought you could only give it back to that same monk.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Definitly not. You have to give it to another monk on another island. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="no.gif" />

 

[agentad]

when we do that (talk to the monk and when giving item) why I cant save ?

 

[morgan terror]

i'm sure that the monk said you couldn't save if you took the item. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_confused.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="icon_confused.gif" />

 

[agentad]

lol but if we give to an other can we save ? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />

 

[Pieter Boelen]

That's the whole point of the thing. You get an item that makes you stronger at the penalty of being unable to save. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Just a quick question....i know i have many...

what are the main differences between Build 14 Alpha 7 (which im currently using) and the New Build Alpha 8 which is currently being made....(I can't wait for it to be finished...Kepp up the good work!)

also how can i set the ship that i want to start out with in Build 14 Alpha 7..i follwed the steps..by going into internal settings and changing the sloop in thBlack Pearl but it still remains the sloop...why?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Main differences? More new stuff and more bugs in Alpha 8 WIP 1. New stuff includes the Capture Colonies mod and the Curse of the Black Pearl film quest.

Did you type in the name correctly? Make sure you type "theBlackPearl" WITH the quotation marks. Should work fine in Alpha 7.

You can't build new towns in the game. The land you have is basically just an easy way to make money - you'll never actually get to see or use any of it.  <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

 

[meandmyself]

If you have Build 13 Final, you CAN Build. Just talk to a tavern-hired officer and tell him you want to build something. You should have the option for that.
Warning: BuildingSet model are weird in some respects, such as the fact that you can walk through the walls and they light up in the dark. We know this is not perfect, but it's either a weird BuildingSet or no BuildingSet. We prefer the weird one, since you don't HAVE to use it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

You don't need to have land to build. You can build wherever you like. The officer's dialog will explain things further, but in theory you could even build a brothel inside a church. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
