Main quest bug!!

Landlubber
I found bug in main quest. I have to sail to Green Rock Bay and fight with French land troops. When I defeat them
it says quest book updated... then a man come to me and talk to me. After chat I can't move character or move mouse (just up and down). It seems dialogue isn't over yet.
I am using pre build 13 with beta 3 upd... my character is J.Sparrow and I have Battleship.

And sorry for my bad english. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
EDIT:
Now it works!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
-it is fixed in beta 5 upd.
 
good to hear it and i'm sure its recommended not to use a higher beta like you did cause there was alot of bugfixing happend between al beta's

This is an issue that all the beta games currently have - its called the 'locked out' bug. For a little while atleast, untill the new build13 gets released, if you want to play a full game of PotC(and not be a beta-tester by playing the betas) i would suggest just playing with the 12.1(full) mod. sorry about that.
 
We have found out when this bug occurs and by what player action, but we haven't yet actually fixed it. This bug occurs when you sink or capture the French ammunition ship, Oiseau. Once you did this, you can't enter to the map. If you go to your cabin and back to sailingmode, you can continue again. However, if you have done this while sailing near an island, then the "drop anchor" locations get disabled for some reason. Temporary workaround: Make sure you sink or capture the Oiseau at sea and not near an island. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

Redmond is always fine - greenford seems to get locked though. Hopefuly the fix IH gave me will work out and this problem will be solved.
 
It should. New game required to test it. After looking at the code, and seeing the effects from your prior test with the log action, it confirmed the problem. HOPEFULLY it's fixed. I also went and fixed all other land lock actions in quests that were the same way, to prevent this evil from happening to those other quests that lock island anchor ports!
 
... still on beta5, game crashes after the battle @ greenford (rescue clement quest). the screen turns dark though access of F1 & F2 are still available.
