Build 14 Alpha

Jonathan: Just how many other fixes are you working on right now and are all the current Build 14 Alpha in one file so I can just do a winmerge of them?

Same thing. I found a bug with the fix i downloaded yesterday morning. I have a pinnace and when i boarded a enemy pinnace, in the deck ship there was nobody except me and my character couldn't move.
 
if you use fast travel to go to your captians cabin and go DIRECTLY to sea without going to the deck first the sea will be missing. what i think is happening is that it possibly doesn't load the sea while in the captains cabin, so you don't have it when you go to sea. but i might be completely off.

Yep, that was what's happening. Fix for that (and finding the sea washing about the inside of the buildings onshore) is now added to my fix download.

Also put in code so it doesn't rain inside cabins and under the deck.
All changes are still together in:
<a href="http://members.optusnet.com.au/~jaldridge1/POTC/Build14alpha_Fixes1.zip" target="_blank">build14alpha_Fixes1</a>

@Cap'n Drow you should be able to just overwrite (or winmerge) the contents of that zip onto build14alpha.

Has anyone ever tried to berth a ship in build 14?
Just wanted to know if I am the only one who gets a frozen screen.
Playing poker and black jack also seems to be broken, since the last fix.
Is all this working in your versions?
A short reply would make me feel quite happy!
Thanks in advance.

I haven't tried berthing yet.

And was the poker working properly before? As I haven't touched the gambling code...


<b>Edit:</b> Ok, I've fixed the berthing problem, also cleaned up a few silly errors it was throwing to the error log.

There was some code to try and leave you in the same place when you berth a ship from port, but I just went with the easy way of reloading you to the gate. Someone can have a play with that later.

Fixes in the above fix compendium as usual.
 
Jonathan,

First, thank you so much for the job you are doing on Build 14 alpha. You are fast and effective.

Second, playing the fix before this most recent one things seem to be working well except the chests all of which are empty in my game now. During boarding there is one powder barrel only on the first deck that has ammo and powder and all of the chest during boarding and on land are empty in my game which is Build 14 with your fixes. I think this was introduced in one of your fixes becasue in Build 13 and the original Build 14 alpha, all chests contained randomly slected loot and multiple powder barrels had multiple types of ammo and weapons.

Finally a question, is it necessary to start a new game with each of your fixes or not.

Thanks
 
Greetings!
Thanks for the reply (and for the fix, of course)
To answer your question about gambling:
It was working well when Build 14 alpha was released, but something must have happened in the first fix wich seemed to turn it off.
I will test it again by installing a fresh b14 alpha and going through each of the fixes, to be sure.

Ok, seems like I messed it up myself, after re- installing b14 and all its fixes gambling works without any problems.
Sorry for the false alarm!
 
i'm not experiencing jason's looting problem at all. no problems with chests whatsoever. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />

by the way, how can you change sails in build 14? it's not in the menu.

as i don't know if this should be fixed, the santiago loading screen still freezes.

the saving bartolomeu's crew quest is broken. when i get to the town hall, nothing happens. the only thing that happens is that some guys that are probably the crew start following me around. i can't get out of the location, and killing all those guards and the executioner that don't fight back doesn't help either. what's supposed to happen here? i also noticed that it is full of grammatical spelling mistakes.

also, the names you get when you increase in rank do show up, but there are some other lines beneath it that shouldn't be there. i also think that i dropped in rank when killig those guys that wouldn't fight or do anything. (the ones mentioned above)
 
Hmm, the sails change is still in the same place I always used it.
F2 -> Ship -> sails -> Choose Sails...

And the problem with the Santiago bug is that for me, it loads fine 19 out of 20 times. Only had it hang once, which makes it a very hard bug to track down.

(And I'll leave the bartolomeu's crew quest bug to the quest author...)
 
Oh, and I'm going to be away for a bit, so no bugfixing for a while.

Someone else can have a turn <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Does that always happen? Please enable error logging and show system.log, compile.log and error.log (if available) here.

There was one missing line in quests_reaction.c in the Build 14 Alpha. The quest author already made a fix and put it on the FTP.

I noticed that as well. Somebody should work on fixing that. It's not too hard, really. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />

Luckily I'm back now. And thanks a lot for all your work. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon. Any idea how long you'll be away? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

I'll be around, but I got Never Winter nights 2 recently, so I'll be a bit busy for a week or so. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />
 
LOL. Enjoy yourself! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
 
maybe i just overlooked the sails button. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> i still don't get how to enable those logs. maybe i was just unlucky when trying to enter santiago, but i'll try again. can you enter it from land somehow? maybe it's just a certain part of the city.

there seem to be 4 fixes to the bartolomeu quest. should i just download them all or only certain fixes as the others could not work?
 
I had the same problem at Santiago, I posted it at BugTracker along with the error.log and it looks like CCC put up a fix. I have not tested his fix though. It was a problem from Build 13 update 1 (and probably Build 13 without the update.)
 
i had seen something for CTD's at santiago, but is there something against the freezes as well? i couldn't find it. i don't have any CTD's, just freezes that start at the end of the loading screen and never stop.
 
The fix by CCC on the Bug Tracker should work for the freezes during the loading. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
