The problem with both Patric and the governor of Cayman is that they have general roles apart from the quests, so if you choose to decline their quests, the game thinks you mean it. They're therefore free to become normal trader and governor respectively.

Update: I've been doing a bit of work on Patric Cardone. His dialog is modified so that you can't decline the quest until he's actually told you about it. Before that, if you choose an answer to leave the conversation, you don't lose the quest and the questbook does not open. Some of the exit answers are more polite than others and at those stages, choosing to leave the conversation can lead to the item trade section. However, once Patric has started talking about the statuettes, if you then choose to decline then the quest ends at once. There's also a slight tweak to the dialog with Hardouin Aufort so that, if you've killed Lucien Bescanceny, you don't tell Aufort to go and talk to him. And if you're playing a female character then you get a slightly different, more appropriate final questbook entry after completing the quest.

The whole lot will be in the next update, but if you're impatient, just download and extract this. It will, of course, have no effect if you've already started, completed or refused Patric's quest!

Hello,
Playing with 8/11/19 update(Nathaniel Hawk).

1> Cant install bigger caliber cannons to ship!! Says "Too big caliber guns for your ship!"!!
Note: I did corsair refit before. Is this can be a reason for that??

2> Amber skull quest is broken or has bug.

Player dying on bridge after returning with skull (before return back to shore in Guadalupe).
Note: It is within few days after taking up the quest from Sun Domingo.

Either it's too big of a caliber for your ship, or something is wrong.
Go to the cursed shipyard and get the cannons you want, cannon caliber is ignored there. ;)
 
It is not too big! Ship can hold 32 caliber. When I am trying to install 24 caliber.
Its United state class. Already sold a good Poseidon class ship in irritation :(

Another question. Why upgrade is not possible in Dutchman shipyard?

Edit: Cant even install 16 caliber. Only 12 caliber.

Then something is definitely wrong, unfortunately I don't have the time to check what is wrong, maybe someone else be able to help you.

Could you please upload the error.log, compile.log and system.log files; as well as a save?
It will help figuring what's the problem easier.
 
Sure I can.
Forgot them earlier. But there is no error log.

If you are playing as Nathaniel Hawk, does that mean you are playing the "Tales of a Sea Hawk" storyline? If so, how are you getting a "United States" class ship? That's a large frigate which should only be available in the "Revolutions" and "Napoleonic" periods, but "Tales of a Sea Hawk" is set in the "Colonial Powers" period. You should not be able to get that ship.

There's also the "America" class 3rd rate ship of the line - but that, too, is only available in "Revolutions" and "Napoleonic".

Neither of these can carry 32 pound cannons unless they have the "Reinforced Hull" upgrade. But both should be able to carry 24 pound cannons. The corsair refit should not affect maximum cannon size; it improves performance and cargo capacity at the expense of hit points.


About the "Crystal Skull" quest. Have you a savegame from before you return to Guadeloupe? If so, play that part again, and if you die again, post "compile.log". Otherwise, please upload your version of "PROGRAM\QUESTS\quests_side.c". There is a way by which you can drop dead suddenly, but it should only trigger if you fail to return the skull to the Carib chief within two months.

Yes I am playing "Tales of a Sea Hawk". And I bought it from Dutchman. Its available there. Its says United states class frigate. But its states are not so high.

I did full upgrade including Reinforced Hull. So it can carry 32 pound. But as I said I am trying to install 24 pound.

I tried to do that quest before. Tried to do that part(bridge crossing) few times. But result is the same as I said. Deleted that part from save game. Will do it again and will upload save game. And it was not 2 month. Just few days after taking the quest. Currently uploading 'quests_side.c' as you asked.

Vanderdecken sells ships which can not normally be bought in a shipyard or encountered at random because they're quest-specific ships, such as the Black Pearl or Flying Dutchman. I don't think he is supposed to sell ships which could normally be bought or encountered in a different period. Have you done something to make ships available regardless of period?

Ah, that bridge! You didn't pay attention to what the Carib warrior Growling Bear told you. ;)
"Walk near side of bridge, not in middle. Side strengthened by rope. Middle not strenghtened by anything."

Try again and watch how he stays to one side. Do the same. He'll remind you again on the way back.
 
You do not need to copy and paste every file individually! The archive will contain the "PROGRAM" and "RESOURCE" folders, as well as top level files "Build Info.txt", "Config.exe" and "engine.ini". Copy and paste all of those into the top level of your game installation folder. Windows should ask if you want to merge the folders with the existing "PROGRAM" and "RESOURCE" folders, then should send the files to their proper sub-folders.

Isn't there the effect that Long Guns count as twice the caliber as the other ones?
I can't remember the details, but there was something along those lines.
Quite confusing, really...

I assume he bought the named "USS Constitution", which is indeed a Vanderdecken ship.
Reason is simple: Would be quite odd to have a lot of randomly-named ships sailing around randomly, all with "Constitution" written on their stern. :rofl

Vanderdecken has more ships available than just the fantasy ones.
You might want to have a look some day; I think he's got at least... 10 different ones or so?
 
Thanks for the reply. I must admit that i just tryed to extract the files into the game folder, since i had a back-up ,and it does say 8th of november update in the main menu when i start the game, so i guess everything is good. Im an english user, but i didn´t skip the spanish and russian language folder when i extracted the files, but i guess it doesn´t matter?

'Shipyard can sell any type of ship' and that's the options I set as true. I don't know its affects period specific ship purchase or not.
I had already uploaded save game and you can confirm the problem from there.
Its not only with United stats class ship and also with Poseidon class ship.
But before that I did install 24 pounds in English gallon. But it was before I did corsair refit as I remember. I did corsair refit later in gallon.

Yes I know that. I usually take right side of bridge. But character dying in a specific point where the bridge is most damaged. Which is left side on the return path.
I played it before 8/11 update. And it was fine.

But is that really matters!? Bridge is so narrow that crossing it by middle or side all are looks same.
