Nigel Blythe Quest

Hey, you guys are going to think I'm a moron but I can't figure out how to do the nigel blythe quest. I go to QC, let Nigel kill Artois, and then bring him aboard. Now I'm stuck. Any help? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" />
 
Hope you freed Oxbay first , you need to go there first, enter port and he will disappear to tavern <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Oxbay is still in French hands. QC was the first place I went to after leaving Oxbay. Will I have to start a new game or can I free Oxbay and it still work?
 
Yer hooped mate, new game required, Stay away from QC til Oxbay freed ur ye can just dump Nigel and continue <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Aaarrrgghhhh! and Skull

Pieter was able to add to Build 13 update2, the changes I made so that now, the next part of the quest will start in Redmond instead of Oxbay.

That way it won't matter if Oxbay is still in French hands.
 
I play with update 2 and nigel doesn't do anything. I went to QC before freeing oxbay since I need Nigels skills to cope with the Oiseau. Now I visited every island and the Nigel-Quest still stucks. This is my fourth time I started a new game because of quest bugs. I don't start a new one now. Is it possible to reactivate the Nigel Blythe quest in a ini file or sth. like that?


Another problem I encounter: For the children-Mefisto quest I need to visit a red robe in Greenford prison. When I enter the prison there is the fighting mode activated and I can't speak with the red robe since he is frightened. What should I do? I never visited the Greenford prison before.

That was quite a good idea of yours. I tested it and it works just fine. I also changed the Questbook entries to say "Redmond" so that Redmond has completely replaced Oxbay for this quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
I also added these changes to the latest Build 14 Alpha versions. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

You have Nigel as an officer, don't you? Make sure you set him as an active officer, then go to Redmond port. As soon as you land, there should be some dialog saying that Nigel has left the ship.

I think I heard that bug being reported before. I have no idea why that happens, so I can't help. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" />
I had that problem some time back and used to kill
any soldiers present went out of the jail and back in
again and could talk to the guy in the cell. Don't know whether
it still works, but worth a try! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Yes I have. I have him always as active officer, only for activating his quest but nothing happens. So this quest may be killed. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> I got his quest in an older game.

So this quest is killed to. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> I know there is a bug to when I play the mainquest with the greenford prison first. So I decided to do this mefisto quest first. Seems to be a bad idea.

The problem is, that the game doesn't allow me to kill anyone in the Greenford prison. It says "its not a good idea here". So This doesn't help.

Maybe it will be helpful to post a very exact log of questing:

Which quest to do first, when start which quest. It seems that the quests kill each other and I can't finish them. The mefisto quest wasn't solvable in the original game too i think...quest bug.

This really disappoints me since I have no time to start this game 10x or more times.

I'm really frightened which quest to do and when.


EDIT:

I don't know why but know I was able to speak with the Redrobe despite the fight mode. However, I managed to enter the Mefisto and now it is my flagship. VERY NICE! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Is there anything I can do about Nigel Blythe?

i think that anyone who would call himself Aaarrrgghhhh! could be considered a bit of a moron. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

anyway, i have never EVER had any problems with any quest at all, no matter how many of them i played in the same location at the same time, even if i had to talk to the same person for several of them.
 
My Toff's daughter Quest is also killed. When I speak to Toff and the gouvernor and then go to the harbour there is a talking screen saying something about freeing Padre Domingues (which refers to the Mefisto-Quest) and nothing happens. I'm not able to enter the pirate ship. I did this quest in a former game too and have no idea what went wrong now.

During the Mefisto quest I was not able to free Padre Domingues. He offers the same options as every regular priest in a church. Nothing about his imprisonment So the buggy Mefisto Quest might have killed the Toff quest. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Quest bugs are my main concern in Bulid 13 Update 2.

I ask again. Please give me any hint or cheat how to reanimate/repair the Nigel Blythe and the Toff-Quest.<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
you don't free padre domingues when you see him in his cell. he is automatically freed when you've killed all the animists and are back on your ship.
 
That is wrong. The bug:

The mission is completed and padre domingues is still in his prison in the animist lair. The priest Romano in the Isla Muelle church is not speakable and not killable. So in order to follow the main quest I have to sail to the animist lair and talk to the imprisoned domingues to do the part with the library.

That is strange and I hope that the Mefisto-Quest hasnt killed the Main Quest too. I'm quite concerned about that... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
can you access the library? i wonder if you would end up in the church. maybe you don't go to the library after you talk to him, but you should go to the church and then visit the library as a workaround. or maybe the screen just goes dark as it should. i have no idea if it would still work.
 
It worked and now I'm on my way to the Oxbay mines. I've absolutely no idea what I've made wrong in the Mefisto-Quest.

Toff and Blythe are now not solvable anymore.
 
That problem with the Mefisto quest has been reported many times, but nobody has managed to fix it yet. It is nothing something you did wrong anyway.
 
i heard that it's triggered by not following the quest in the exact sequence. look very closely at your quest log and do what it sais you should do. it might work. i'm doing the quest myself right now.

there's a bug with the assassin quest: after you visit mateus santos the first time, and you exit his house, the quest log is updated, and it sais that the three months for the mission have passed. the quest is then finished. maybe it has something to do with my reputation being hero?
 
The three months pass IMMEDIATELY? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />
 
yes and no. the message in your log book says that it did, but the date hasn't changed. i think it's just a misplaced trigger or something.
 
I started another game and the Blythe Quest hangs again: <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Now I landed on Conceicao and had to kill Harry's ship - a pirate corvette - for Blythe. When entering the ship there is nobody onboard and my char just can't move. - nothing happens.

When sinking that ship I have no clue about Nigels next step. What should I do? On Douwesen nothing happens.

EDIT:

I use a trick now: I buy a new ship and make blythe captain...then Douwesen works. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
