you're one clever bugger. i might warn you though: i think that removing the movies might cause a crash when they're supposed to play. it would generate a harmless error log at least, but it could be worse. would you consider a place in the modding team? we have plenty of problems to fix.
 
Sounds like he figured it out. So now you can play AND the movies work correctly?

The game won't crash if the movies are not there. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
I fixed it, I can see the movies AND play. FFDSHOW actually interferes with ALOT of games, I had to simply add the POTC EXE to the exception list so when the movies play they dont use FFDSHOW, Hence stopping the crashing!
 
By the way, How do I freaking sail? Im randomly sailing to nowhere now..How do I get to a port etc...Any quick sail?
 
yes. press enter for fast travel and the like. it also gives you the option for going to the map and other things. you don't want to select 'hoist flag' though, that's hoisting the pirate flag. enter is also the key for bringing up a similar menu on land.
 
Fantastic, Thanks! I sent you a PM with the same question but it seems the PM system wont work for me >.>;; Anyway thanks again!
 
no, i got the message. dunno what went wrong.

more on flags: you can choose your flag in the relations menu. the pirate flag there is different in function from the one you get by chosing 'hoist flag'. the one in the relations menu is for the pirate nationality. hoist flag is declaring yourself enemy to all others, but pirates will side with you in battle. anyone other than pirates who can see you when you hoist the flag will become <i>permanently</i> hostile. simply hoisting the pirate <i>nation</i> flag will have them hostile towards you for as long as you're flying the flag.
 
Why whenever I port I lose all Rum And Rations!?? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/pirate-ayant-soif.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rumgone" border="0" alt="pirate-ayant-soif.gif" />
 
I really haven't got a clue. That shouldn't be happening. At all. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />

Would you, by any chance, be entering ports at midnight?
 
It shouldn't be the midnight bug; I posted the fix on the previous page. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
 
Boy, I'm missing lots of things lately. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> Sorry Pieter. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blush.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:ops" border="0" alt="blush.gif" />
