    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    @Grey R. That's right. When it is stuck you can't get as far as choosing anything. The pic shows the arrow lighting up, for example, the 'Passengers' tab or will go along to any of the others except when clicked, indents in, lights up but nothing happens. None of the tabs along the top do...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    I am now in the realm of Hylie's surname. Playing in the Free roaming game for quite a while working up to a Heavy Brig and several officers it has again frozen up on me. Talking to any store owner and/or buying anything doesn't help either this time; the Tabs are frozen again. I can open a...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Burger me, it worked. @Hylie {not quite so} Pistof. you are the man. For the future, if anyone gets this 'tabs not working' idiosyncratic lunacy, go into the store and ask to see personal items, (I bought a grenade), it somehow trips something and the tabs work again. I don't know if it has to...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Hi Hylie, As you're just passing by, I couldn't look at the cargo to sell it or have a look or anything else as none of the tabs worked, they were all frozen. Jarring this system to get any result would need throwing the PC across the room (missing the cats), but it is a lot easier on the nerves...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Hi Pieter, I have O&O defrag running all the time including the hard drive this is on (except on the other SSD hard drives) so that isn't the issue. Just had a look out of interest but as it runs all the time I ignore it. Talk about a clean disk... @Hylie Pistof probably named himself after he...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Thank you very much for all the prompt advice. To let you know where I am with all this; I've capitulated and started a new game. After working my way up from the Bum boat with popcorn guns and no crew through to capturing a Heavy East Indiaman and accrued enough Melee points so that I am not...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    @ Grey R. I see what you mean about the .tga files. Windows is legendary for thinking it knows what everybody wants, and doesn't. I tried getting the monkey off my back yet again. Stuck the code where suggested [thmb]. Same result. Should the code go just after the semi colon? vis. int limit...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    @Grey R. I'm sure that works but inserting it into Programmes console.c is a minefield. I tried inserting on the second line down between () [Thumbnail] as I couldn't see any reference to monkeys similar. It followed me. Then inserted the code where the thumbnail file indicates and another pic...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Hi Pieter, Wondered about that. Travelled through the Netherlands but never stayed there. I equate the Dutch (Netherlanders?) with the Aussies. Travellers and explorers. I sail on the Garonne and have a mate in the Club, Rob who is a Diplomat, he spoke English better than the Queen. And a lot...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Wow, are you guys on the ball or what? Thanks for the help. Pieter, I had already found the monkeys dialogue code and zeroed it giving the blank box, I still have to click space to go through a door but at least it has stopped screaming at me. I now just have to do as you suggest and decode the...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. While I was moaning I ripped into the useless monkey but I can live with that as I've managed to turn off the infernal screeching although the monkey's blank dialogue box still appears and he/she? still hops about. My main problem is with the tabs that do no longer open...

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Thanks for the swift replies chaps. @Grey R. Must be careful not to down too many masts. @Pieter B. That's probably the cause if it's not the mast thing but I don't care too much about that as the game runs fine using full screen resolution, and although irritating it doesn't stop the gameplay...

    Transfer crew/goods after boarding

    Try pressing F11 and the left arrow at the same time [PC Mouse].

    Need Help Build14 Tabs not working

    Hi, If this has been covered ad nauseum I apologise but searching throws up nothing relevant. I have been playing the Build14 Beta4 WIP 2April 2016 for ages on WIN10 with a PC/Mouse and no problems. I now find the game occasionally and increasingly lets F2 open the Ship/Passengers/Cargo etc...

    New Horizons among Top 100 Mods of 2013!

    Here is a present. I don't know if this has been found before or where to look on this vast site to check, but searching 'https://www.google.com/webhp?hl=xx-pirate' brings a smile. Regards, Brian.

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Hi Pieter, I'm standing by gnashing my teeth. It all looks fantastic. But there's a but. I have installed the Beta3 full and get to the stories menu then it all goes like a Chinese Gybe. The story selection waits a minute or so before reacting when I select Start game. At first I thought it...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Thanks for the detailed reply. I will try F9 to see what happens. As in the old game, after you sight another ship and go off the map to the deck you can't save, so the outcome isn't repeatable. Usually it doesn't matter but if hunting an elusive ship for the govenor or a quest, having found it...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Hi Hylie, Thanks for the reply. I didn't even know the glittery gold bauble was cursed until you and Pieter pointed it out. Thought it might be worth a bob or two; greed eh? Serves me right. I'm afraid the POTC films (all of them) are too dumbed down for my tastes. Penelope Cruz is nice eye...
