Fort "boarding" bug

[fike]

Hey there <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

To keep it short ( I normally do have problems with that if I have to describe a problem ;P)...

If I fight a fort, destroy all guns and finally board it, everything works fine. But after killing the last soldier inside, the sacked-town-screen won't show up. Instead, the screen turns black. I do not think that it's got anything to do with my graphics card, as a log message in the upper left corner is clearly visible, saying "Player morale (x) => (x+2)"
Of course, x resembles some morale value.
Sadly, I cannot say whether sacking towns worked in PotC stock, as I installed the Build Mod right away.
I'm running the Beta 5 on WinXP / SP4. If other technical details are helpful, tell me.

Which modpack version are you using? Build 12.1 or Build 13 Beta? Build 12.1 should work just fine.

as already mentioned, Build 13 Beta 5 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

That status line for the morale is done in the call to SetEndingStats() which is the last thing that's done in the boarding code before LaunchFortCapture() is called. I haven't captured a fort in a while, so it's possible that it's not working right. I'll have a look.

What version are you running, and this bug has been eliminated back in beta 7.

I have buil 6 can i take built 8 in top of it?

Yes, just extract Beta 8 on top of your POTC folder (say yes to overwrite files).

You will need to make any setting changes you may have done in Buildsettings.h. Also, due to the fixes in Beta8, no old saved games will work.
