The batch file now automatically removes the PROGRAM and RESOURCE\INI folder and renames the _new folders to their original counterparts.
Naturally it is thus important to run the RunMe.bat file again.
 
yea i still got an old problem with the jack sparrow questline.. i am using patch 4..

that east indian trading company in jamacia is still not here! yes i tried the right building. in fact i tried almost all the
buildings around the town centre. but i know the building right before you get teleported to the next area is the EITC one. was not this a fix in patch 2?? please anybody that have completed this help me! what must i do to fix this?
 
There's no RunMe.bat included in the Fix; it's the one included in Patch 4 that you need to run.
Doesn't matter if you do this before or after installing the Fix.

The EITC building is only accessible at the points where you need to access it.
I played the first part of the Jack Sparrow quest fairly recently and it was working then.
At what point in the story are you exactly? What's the last quest event that happened?

i have escorted becket to jamaica and i talked to him at his ship. and he told me to go to the eitc office right for the city gates. any commands i can enter to try to start the quest stage again?
 
You should be instantly teleported to the EITC building when you walk up to the door. Do you know which door it's supposed to be?
 
yea i think so. to the right of the town gates there is three buildings before you get to the next part of the city.

and i have tried all of them. i remember at the end of the agent diamond smuggling quest, i got teleported when i approached the hideout of the bad guy.. where you get the ship as a reward. so it has worked before.. but i have never been able to enter the EITC building

maybe there is some quest script thingy that have not started? i know i have problems with the quest log. but has that something to do with the actual quest? and i am talking about side quest. not the jack sparrow main quest...

what program are you guys using to make all this stuff? maybe i could try to force this too work or something... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />o)
 
Side quest? What side quest? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />

We're using Notepad or Notepad++ or something like that for editing the code.
There might be something you can try to continue to the next part, but I won't be able to check until I'm at home and have access to my files.
 
When you have finished talking to Beckett on the dock - and he says to meet him in the EITC office.
Go to the Tavern INSTEAD.
You should find Thomas Tipman in there - talk to him - then goto the EITC office.
 
When I played the Sir Christopher Mings route, I went to the EITC office and got in, but was told Beckett wasn't there yet.
Then I went to the tavern, talked with Thomas Tipman, then went back to the EITC office. Both instances were working.
I was even stopped the first time when I tried to enter even though the told be to leave. That was a nice touch, Short Jack Gold! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />

The game does in fact have the option to go straight to the office - or - got to the tavern first.
If his isn't loaded correctly, then Tipman won't be there! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
well i found no thomas tipman in there so i guess my quest is broken.. does this mean i have to start over again?

do you think there is a easy small fix i can use?

If so, and he wasn't there, then tell me how you got the quest to escort Beckett.
When you started did you talk to Brock or Mings?

i talked to that beggar guy. and i did the whole diamond quest.
also after the quest i talked to that woman who game me the third piece of the map.
but i did meet becket before i meet here at the beach.
then she told me to go back to town. and maybe thats when i am supposed to meet beckett, and that screwed up the quest..

okay i tried the other route.
i talked to the fat blue guy instead of the beggar.
so i skipped that diamond quest.. and so i escorted beckett to jamaica and then something new happend, when i docket beckett was at the dock.
last time i had to go innside his ship and talk to him.. now he was at the dock like all the other people i have escorted.. and when i tried to enter the EITC, it worked.
but i dont want to skip the diamond quest becuase it looks like that is the right route.. but i will try to meet the woman that gave me the third pice at the beach before i talk to beckett...


i started a new game and did everything very fast like. but now it all seems to work fine. i have no idea what i did do to break the quest before. but when i played with the patch 1 a couple of weeks ago i had to enter becketts ship to talk to him. and i could not enter the EITC. and also when i started a new game with patch i also had to go to his ship.(same EITC problem) but after these new tries he was at the dock.. and then everything worked....
 
You shouldn't be needing to talk to Beckett on his ship.
Actually, we probably should somehow prevent you from being able to get any quest dialog if you DO do that.
The Sir Christopher Mings route should also get you to the end of the storyline; it's two different routes, both of which should work.

Seriously, this is included in the Development Resources and it worked last time I tested.
Coming weekend I'm hoping to compile and release an all-new-content-in-one-file download for testing.

I got away with just spending the night over at the tavern - did'nt talk to Tipman

Anyway, I have a bit of trouble finding Petro´s farm in the jungle - going left leads me back to Point-a-Pitre, going right takes me to the lighthouse. The house just around the corner from the shore is locked. What did I miss, you think? A map?..
 
You can find Petros right outside Pointe a Pitre in a house at the new Plantation. Provided you're using Patch 3 or later, of course.
You don't HAVE to talk to Tipman; he'll just offer you some interesting information. But it's not required for continuing the quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
Well, i find out little weird way to get rich in start of main quest. When in fort in oxbay, soldiers will talk to anyone tresspassing, but if you are in attack mode, you can pass them without any dialog, steal everything from chests in all locations and even try your luck with some unguarded "visitors". In one attempt, I was even able to convince official to hand over whole oxbay. I just looted it, got 1 and half million and whenever i trade someone here, i just can take the stuff, even ships... Nice bug, err, glitch <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
A couple of things:

No smuggler on Charleston Tavern on Nevis. Is this by design?

A ship surrendered on the high seas and when I went on board there was no one to talk with.
 
It's possible nobody yet added a smuggler to Charlestown. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

And I've got some good news! I think I just "fixed" the Greenford/Bridgetown colony capture problem!
Thomas the Terror once made the boarding locator files for the stock game towns, but it turns out the Greenford one wasn't included in the modpack.
So that one's DEFINITLY going in Alpha 9.5! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
