I installed Build 13 with all updates and have been sailing in PoTC for about 150 days. I recently finished the main quest capturing both the governor's manowar and the Black Pearl. Credits role, game continues, sweet.
Unfortunately, the game goes to shit with problems for me. Anytime I engage a ship on the world map the sea view loads with only my ships displayed and the interface (compass, ship icons, ability to issue any orders) is gone... I can still control my ship, but I must load a savegame to get out of it. I tried selling all my ships, buying a new one, and attempt sea view from the world map, but same result. Oddly, everything works as it should if I enter sea mode from world map with no one around me, or when I am near land. Sadly it seems this game is truly over since I wanted to take the Black Pearl and engage in some ruthless piracy, but no can do.
Another problem I experienced during my gaming overall, but especially later on, was the game crashing when going to the world map from nearby Oxbay island. This forced me to load a previous savegame and avoid Oxbay altogether; it seemed hit or miss whether it worked so I made sure to save before entering sea mode by Oxbay.
The quest log is messed up too with listings overlaped a bit and only the first few quests I completed ever listed. Nothing fundamentally bad here, just looks odd and I can't see the old quests I've done.
The Redmond store owner's second quest was broken. I went to the island for goods, and three smugglers are suppose to attack, but they just wander, so I kill them to get the quest update. Return to store and I'm told to go to port to catch the smuggler's ship, but game crashes.
I had a Letter of Marque from Spain, but never any quests. Are there any?
Plenty of typos throughout the dialog, even the main quest, yikes.
Anywoo, time for a fresh installation with Build 14. Is there a way to turn-off the main quest altogether?
