Hi Bartholomeu,
Are the quests finished now? & which game versions are they compatable with ?

damski.
 
I haven't finished my improvement of the First Contact quest yet and never even started the improvement on the Jackpot quest.
Why does the Auto Skill System need to be off? I recall they work fine with that on as well. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
These quests have been finished for quite a while. Not all of them are in all the Build 14 Alpha's though. Actually, I don't think the First Contact quest and Jackpot quests are even in Alpha 7. They ARE in Alpha 8 WIP 1.
Did you compile all your quests into one file, Bartolomeu? If you could compile them all in, say, a Build 13 or Alpha 6 compatible file, people using those game versions could download them and give them a try. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
First, of course there is a problem with the auto-skill system. I said that many times on the forum in the past <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> (THE CHARACTERS OF THE QUESTS ATTACK THE PLAYER WITHOUT ANY REASON).
First contact quest is in Alpha 7 Plus (the original version) but Jackpot quest is in Alpha 8.
You have the "special version" in my folder with my quests for Build 13 (but need some ressources like the Battle rocks and the AOP towns).

For my fix, it would be preferable to use Alpha 7 plus.

three headslaps in one post? that's a really bad one. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

are those required ranks related to difficulty or sequence in which you should play the quests?

It's just the required rank to play the quest. But, for instance, if you play the Bartolomeu's quest (release the crew at Havana) with the hardest level of difficulty and a rank of 5, it will be very hard to finish the quest seeing that the number of enemies. Anyway, you can hire one (preferable two <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ) officer to help you during the fight.

I've tried once and they are messed the quest up. My enemies were completely crazy <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> .
 
You need to finish the Bartolomeu quest first, then when you reach rank 14 and visit PaP, the quest should start.

I need it for Santiago quest.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Hi,
I don't think there is one , as far as I know.... there's only one in the game & that's on QC.

damski.
 
Thats what I thought to but this is what it says in me quest book.

"Bartolomeu told me the story of how he once lost the best ship he ever owned. And we found a trail that might lead us to his ship again. I decided I would try to help Bartolomeu again, this time to find his ship again. A sailor that might crew the 'Santiago' told us of a navigator who is currently in the brothel. Perhaps he can help us any further."
 
so that's the reference to the uniqueness of the ship eh? or at least one of them. looks good. can't help you with the quest though.
 
About the brothel: There's at least three in the game in the Build 14 Alpha's: QC, PaP and Tortuga. Of course you do need to have the brothel mod enabled to be able to get in there. However, I recall that you don't actually need to go into the brothel for this quest. The brothel has been closed and there's somebody outside the door who you need to talk to. See attached screenshot for the location of the brothel.

As for that "reference to the uniqueness of the ship": That's actually something I put in there a long time ago when I improved that quest.

I do understand that these two quest are not in 14 A6 upd 2 ? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/readon.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="readon.gif" />
 
No, I don't think I added those. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
I don't show the start of the santiago quest is it "normal" <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" /> ?
