Hello, and your English is fine! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :onya

" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

The base game is Pirates of the Caribbean, the game which you have. b13_final should work with your game; I have the same game, have installed b13_final, and it works for me. Could you describe in more detail what problems you are having? Does the game now refuse to load entirely or does it crash during play?

Build 14 Alpha 8 might work, but not as well; it is still being developed and you can expect it to have more bugs than Build 13 Final. Screen shots will bear little resemblance to the base game Pirates of the Caribbean as the mods have added new characters (including Jack Sparrow) as well as changing some of the screens. So you will see screen shots from the modified version which look nothing like what you have seen in the unmodified game.

Thanks for your reply;
B13_Final causes Blank screen problem.. i'm running game by storm engine, it shows loading screen then i click on New Game & an other loading screen and then it shows dark, blank screen <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> nothing more.. On the other hand i've two computer, other one appears the same problem, i think my original game may have problems but i can play it without build mods.
Thank you for everything...

Try instaling another mod (Like russian SLiB <a href="http://www.piratesahoy.net/potc/SLiB%20Mod" target="_blank">here</a>... If it'll work, then problem with Downloaded build mod, if it'll crash too, then problem with your base game...

What the SLiB Mod includes? is there any special Installation Instructions for it? (like B14_A8 : <a href="http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?s=&showtopic=12078&view=findpost&p=270743)" target="_blank">http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?s=...t&p=270743)</a>

Place data1.slb, data2.slb, data3.slb, setup.rar in one folder and install addon... Other files are not req for instalation. They are just simple "updates". I'm not shure how to instal those...

Thank you for your reply again;

i solved problem by buying a new game <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> i installed B13 final then B14A8 now it's working, <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :rolleyes:

" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> in my opinion usage is harder on that build, on the other hand i confronted with some bugs;
1-) i cant anchor to jameica island
2-) i dont know how can i explane.. one of a npc dead in the city and it becomes a skeleton, with glowing lights <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> when i tryed to talk with it (i dont remember my answers) the game was crashed and closed (returned to desktop)
-What must i do? Can anyone confirm my bugs?

i'm still testing now, if i saw an other bug i'll write here...
Thanks already now...

B14A8 have that many bugs, that you can write here about ehm... infinite houers....

Pieter Boelen has gone as you know (http://forum.piratesahoy.net//index.php?showtopic=12078&view=findpost&p=279356) and will not back till december who will finish B14 stable or final or beta <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

is there any version after Build 14 Alpha 8? What are WIP's? i read them but i couldent understand that they are fixed of b14a8 or new changes on build... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Pieter Boelen · Oct 2, 2008

The PotC you're having is definitly the correct one.
There's three PotC games: the original, Legend of Jack Sparrow and At World's End.
Our mods are for the original version, which stars Nathaniel Hawk.
There indeed is a "Legend of Jack Sparrow" storyline in Build 14 Alpha 8.
However, there's nothing official about that.
In any case, if you follow the Build 13 Final installation instructions, it should work fine.
What language version do you have? Normal English?

The SLiB mod contains a lot of cool features, but it's Russian.
Therefore it's pretty much unplayable unless you're good at Russian. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

WIP = Work In Progress; they're older versions.
I'm only half-gone (as you can see) and Pirate_KK is still working on Build 14. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :yes

Nice to see u every now and then;

There is a english patch for slib (<a href="http://legend.seaward.ru/forum/index.php?showforum=11" target="_blank">http://legend.seaward.ru/forum/index.php?showforum=11</a>)
For the users who doesnt know russian can use googe translate (at least i'm using that) <a href="http://translate.google.com" target="_blank">http://translate.google.com</a> (for russian site's and forums)

is there any way combine Slib builds & u'r builds? i saw that game is programmed by C language.. i don't have good C knowlage but i can understand it and can make something on it (i know VB & C# librarys are very similar with C# as you know)

now i'm trying to work on my bug's.. then i'll try to add Slib's properties to u'r build.. if i reach success i'll write & link it here.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> but at first i've to solve C <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> so it's a bit far... Thank you for your answers..

The problem is the code for the SLiB mod is hidden in DLL files and we can't access it.
Therefore we can neither translate it nor combine the code.
The only thing we can do is to use the RESOURCE files from the SLiB mod.
So that's characters and ships and locations and such.
Most of these are already in the Build now.

Either way i would make the dll's a class library and then it (or parts of it) can be used by many other codes. (MAY BE!!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> )

Thank you for your reply again...

Very true. I don't understand what you're saying about class libraries. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Object Oriented programming languages define all of their functionality in terms of objects. All objects of the same type make up a class of objects which have common functionality. It is this common functionality that is coded into the program as a class.

There are a number of classes that are common to many programs. An example of this would be the class that handles the display of a window on the screen. Such a class would need to know how to display the window, what common features to display in the window (title bar, minimize and maximize buttons etc.) and how to perform functions such as moving or re sizing the window. Classes such as this one can be placed in a class library for use in all of the programs that are being written that need to handle these particular classes of objects</div>
And what i meaned with class library..
in C# u can use some program or dll's as a class library and you can use some features of that program (or part of it) i'm researching is it the same in C...

My lack of proper coding knowledge doesn't really help here. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=" :razz
