POTC Side Quests

Meigger

1000th Member Man
I need some information for the Manual and Guide being written.

The following are small side quests for the modded POTC. Clair Larrouse, Blaque Family, Thomas O'Reily 1st job, Thomas O'Reily 2nd job, Falaise de Fleur Smugglers, Escort Vigila Mendes, Help Zaid Murro, Edgar Attwood Adventures, Baldewyn Coffier, and Sabine Matton.

I need to know from anyone who has played these quests completely through with the <u>newest updates</u> about any problems you encountered.

You can post here or PM me if you like.

I thank you in advance for your assistance.

Escort Vigila Mendes, Help Zaid Murro ... went OK for me!

Are you interested in quests not listed as well?

I am trying to get a handle on these quests with the new updates so I can finalize them in the manual and guide. However, any comments regarding any of the quests, or the game itself, are very much appreciated.
 
<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> there, matey.

No apparent problems with Blaque Family and Edgar Attwood.

You get a CTD if you do the FdF tavern part of the "Girl in card game" and the "Find Lucas" quest. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

Hmmm ... used to be you would just get the game locked up in the tavern with no way to continue.

Then Cat was supposed to have made a fix for that (Build 12.1).

Wondering if her fix is not compatible with Post B12/ Build 12.2
 
I didn't know a fix was made either... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
I think it was to be a quest check. and it might have been done along with the Animists or the "Padre Domingues" bug fix. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
Thanks for the input Mateys. Played all of the quests but the "girl in the card game," can't seem to get that one to work for me. After playing dice, the conversation never turns into the girl bit.

As far as I know everything works ok at this point in time, so I will include these quests in the manual and guide write-ups.

If anyone has any other comments on any other quests, please post them here. I am aware of most of the bugs, and they are being worked on.

Thanks again for all the input. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Check out <a href="http://www.piratehideout.net/Quests/AGirlWonInACardGame.html" target="_blank">this</a> page for info on the "girl in the card game" quest. There are some other pages on that site that might also be of interest to you. Even though all pages were made for the stock unmodded game.
 
Thanks Pieter. I was aware of that stock POTC material. However, with the girl in the dice game, I haven't been able to get past the "don't distrub me from my drink" comment. But again I really haven't spent that much time on it either. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

I don't know what I've done right to trigger it either. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

I just go to tavern and play every chance I get (with luck at 9 or 10) <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

I'm not even sure if it is a specific port or not. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

I think it ends up being a player you beat.
He won't play with you again right there.
If you go somewhere in town and then come back later an try to play, I think he then offers the card game.
Not really sure about this though. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
Thanks for the input Petros. I am really going to have to spent more time on this quest in order to know how to write it up in the strategy guide. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
'Fore you spend more time trying to trigger it, let's just temporarily rewrite it to up the chance.

Open dialog\habitue_dialog.c
find:
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->if (CheckQuestAttribute("gambling_with_girl", "") && makeint(pchar.quest.gambling) >= 40 && makeint(pchar.money) >=100)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
Replace:
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->if (CheckQuestAttribute("gambling_with_girl", ""))<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
That will make the quest always appear, if it was not already started. Well, always appear with gambling tavern-folks, it won't change the get-drunk-with-you tavern folks.

There are still I believe some problems with the Clair Larrouse quest, but SFAIK the others are solid now.

Now that you mention it, I just started (again) and played past the part of escorting Vigilia Mendez, and then helping Zaid Murro.

Knowing about the Claire Larrouse quest, I never bothered to ask Zaid and now Claire refuses to talk to me, and yes, Oxbay has already been liberated.

Unless their are other triggers I'm missing, I guess it is possible to miss the Claire Larrouse quest all together.
 
Does the Thomas O'Reily beacuase i can´t start it. Do i have to do something or have a certain amount of reputation?
Thanks!

If you mean the smuggling quest, there are two conditions.

You first have to have completed a delivery to Conceico for him.

Second, you need to have either 600 or 800 (I forget) free cargo space available.
