Awesome! I think I may just scrap this whole unmodded thing and get into the modded stuff... REAL SOON... 8)
 
The `ever-changing` antics of Nigel Blythe

This may be old hat to the modders, but I was rummaging around in the game files and found this - it's from a file called quests_text.txt, and it's in the folder RESOURCE/QUESTSTEXT, and is all the info that gets put into the quests book as you go through the game. I quoted only Nigel's part from when he disappears:

#TEXT 10
When I came to Conceicao, I found Nigel had already gone. I suspect he is off hatching some scheme again.
#TEXT 11
I knew it! The rascal has accepted 10000 gold to kill Mean Harry within a month. It's quite a risky proposition...but I think I can do it.
#TEXT 12
I knew it! The rascal has accepted 10000 gold to kill Mean Harry within a month. But when I found out that Garry has at least a corvette or even a frigate, I refused the agreement.
#TEXT 13
A month has gone, and I still can't find Harry. But I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. And I've no plans to return any of the gold.
#TEXT 14
Mean Harry was not so hard to deal with. Now I've got to go look for a reward. They say that the island's governor will give it to me.
#TEXT 15
It's an outrage! Why should I pay taxes? Devils and dogs! Unfortunately the governor has a strong argument on his side - his fleet. But taxes...4000 gold? Argh!
#TEXT 16
As soon as I made Nigel captain of my of my ships, he attacked a ship near Douwesen! And it was a smuggler's ship to boot! Damn!
#TEXT 17
A smuggler ship sank Nigel. No wonder. But never mind Nigel... it's the loss of my ship that troubles me.
#TEXT 18
I helped Nigel defeat a smuggler. I should ask Nigel what's going on...
#TEXT 19
The smuggler's friends were waiting for us. I didn't listen to a word they said... I just killed them.
#TEXT 20
The smuggler's friends were waiting for us. They killed Nigel, and I escaped while they were busy kicking his corpse. Can't blame them - he was a real bastard.
#TEXT 21
That rascal Nigel! He stole my ship! Devils! Late at night he sailed away. Perhaps he is on Isla Muelle... that island was nearby.
#TEXT 22
The scoundrel is on Isla Muelle! They saw him in the tavern!
#TEXT 23
The tavern owner said that Nigel was here, and he talked with a fellow called Caminero who lives in a house at the back of the tavern.
#TEXT 24
Caminero said that Nigel is going to join his old crew on Quebradas Costillas. Interesting...what this fellow up to?
#TEXT 25
I've met a sailor from Nigel's ship in Quebradas Costillas tavern. He told me that the rascal left the island, but he doesn't know where he is going. Maybe Clauss, Nigel's boatswain, knows. He is now in Quebradas Costillas store, working off his debts.
#TEXT 26
The best way to solve this problem is with a little gold. I just paid Clauss - Nigel's boatswain - for a private talk.
#TEXT 27
Clauss said Nigel left the island to join his old crew in Douwesen. The way to his sunken ship full of silver is under a waterfall on Douwesen.
#TEXT 28
I arrived just in time. Nigel was astonished to see me. I killed him and took all the silver from the ship.

Looks like some fun there, too bad we can't get into it. I tried to trigger the attack on the smuggler's ship by giving Nigel a ship to captain, but nothing happened. 8)

I also found Nigel's dialog - whew, what a little conniver! (LOL!)

I'm going to look at that script again - see if there's any way to debug it. I don't know a LOT of code but some - who knows? Sometimes fresh eyes can see a dropped semicolon or parenthesis or something like that. It would be nice to get this scenario back on track.

The smuggler's friends were waiting for us. They killed Nigel, and I escaped while they were busy kicking his corpse. Can't blame them - he was a real (Hello, I am a word censor).

Heh. Lovely quote, that, 'kicking his corpse'... I wonder if Disney discovered that "word censor" word - the word is b.a.s.t.ard! 8)

Oh, I knew that. I meant, if the Disney folks realized that they were releasing a game with their name on it that said b.a.s.tard! Maybe THEY were the ones who sabotaged Nigel's `re-appearance`! 8)
 
<!--`QuoteBegin-NathanKell`+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(NathanKell)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Good point!

You'll note that the rep names are censored in exactly that way.[/quote]

Hahah, yes, I DID notice that. 8)

I noticed that I cannot get into the Smuggler's Lair Shop. Even if it is daytime, it is locked. The sign says "ARMAZENAR" (which is Portuguese for "to shop") but the door is locked. Has anyone gotten in there? I wonder if your reputation has to be "Bloody Terror" or "Swindler" or something. [/quote]

I got into the shop today,and my reputation is Hero! Only bad thing is that when you leave the shop (or tavern) there is a hoarde of guys fighting outside, and you are always attacked by someone.
 
Talk to the bartender in qc then go up stairs when guards come go with them tell goviner you didnt do it when leaving goviners buliding go right through through the gate a little past the gate you will get a quest book update head stright up on the left you will see 3 men standing ofver his body talk to the leader then kill him.
 
*Get this back up*
I´ve lost Nigel on Oxbay in Oxbay town, but I never met him there -anywhere- again. Or do I have to go to the tavern right when I get the message that he disappeared?
