These "black screens" come at the very beginning, when I try to start a new game! After awhile I hear the music from the movie video...but thats it, and I cannot switch to other screens like "F2" or the Main Menu (F1) like I used to be able too with other black screens. And now my save games are toast as well.

Now I finally got the game to start a "new game", but only after I ran that "RunMe" MS-DOS batch file in the main body. The only thing that, seemed to do was place those files back into Resource/Textures/Loading. So now I have those .TX FILES inside "Loading" and outside "English and ENGLISH", and those .TX FILES inside the "ENGLISH" folder as well. On top of that there is the "English" folder that I made or created when the last update was posted, and now it only has the "Crew.tga.tx" iside that.

CONFUSED YET???

So I have two (2) Engish folders here, one that I created to hold all those files when I was told too, and one that someone created with obviously some update I got since, but it is in Capital letters (ENGLISH). Now here is the scarey part......the capital "ENGLISH" folder has all the .TX files, same as the "Loading" folder, but my old "English" folder only has that "Crew.tga.tx" inside it. But the "Crew.tga.tx" are all different sizes. from each other, so now I have different files of different dates and fixes all here....Lovely!!

P.S. Just noticed that all files are not in those folders, some are missing! The "ENGLISH" has a bunch that are not in the parent folder "Loading"

P.P.S. Also the very first tavern I went too, sorry second one in Greenford, had a "Tavern Brawl" the second I stepped inside, and the "Smuggler" was right in the thick of it, so I immediately turned around and ran back outside....did not work!, When I went back inside he was unresponsive and standing, so I had to restart AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN THIS BUG, I THOUGHT IT WAS GONE!!!
 
Pieter, here is the fix for Boal_deck.c file ! Excuse for the time it took to realize it ! I have also add a fix to have again the loading screens for the decks !

[attachment=306:attachment]

the decks were the only floating-above-the-water-on-the-ship-interior bugs ??
 
Thanks Screwface.

To Long John Silver: I thought that bug was gone too. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
And how can you have a folder English and ENGLISH? Windows considers both to have the same name. You CAN'T have two folders. At least, that's not supposed to be possible. I'll look into it all tomorrow. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />

BTW: To Screwface: I recall that some captain's cabins also had the problem, but I'm not sure. Maybe you can check it. Otherwise I'll check it myself tomorrow.
 
i havent even left oxbay and im in a mess! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
here are the bugs i've seen so far:
1) when i'm supposed to trick the french navy with the french flag, it doesn't work, even though i have the french flag up they start firing, and so does the fort and any other french ship close enough to fire at me. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />

2) after going to sea when i get back on land, the permenant running toggle doesn't work. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

3) when i go to the world map, i dont see the islands, and when i add the new islands code the game won't even start! [abnormal program termination
c/program files/ bethesda softwoks/ pirates of the caribbean/ENGINE.exe]! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_twisted.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":twisted:" border="0" alt="icon_twisted.gif" />

4) something funny is going on with the building set mod, there's a fort in front of the hidden exit to the oxbay dungeon in the port, and there's also one at the end of that raised area of the port, as your looking outwards from the governors house gate [the port entrance], go right and at the end there is the roof of a fort, now that would be an easy fort to raid. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

5)when i take captain as prisoners, i BECOME the captain with all his skills and his party money!
i lost a load of skills and alot of money i set in build settings [as my kind of royal relative leaving me all his money in his will idea] 1,000,000,000 and after i captured the captain i had a look at my cannons because of damage and noticed i had 265,000 gold !, and after that i got upset and suspitious and checked the charecter screen and i was the captain, name and everything exept personal wealth !
my questions:
has anyone seen these bugs before?
has the new islands code been updated, or is it out of date?
could anyone give me a detailed walkthrough on how to install everything?
can someone please help, because im stuck without a game.
TIA [Thanks In Advance]

You should just run SwitchLangEnabler.bat and they should show up again. Or you can manually move them from RESOURCE\Textures\Loading to RESOURCE\Textures\Loading\ENGLISH. All files except for progress.tga.tx should be moved there.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Pieter,

Finally I understand why in my POTC the SwitchLangEnabler.bat doesn't work:
I have an RESOURCE\Textures\Loading\ENGLISH_ (with an underscore) and not ENGLISH without underscore.

I delete the "_" and finally the loading screen works as well.

I read in this threat that Long John Silver reports the same problem maybe he has a directory "English" and one "ENGLISH_" <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I try to apply the last BOAL_ship.c from Screwface but it doesn't works on my side, I have to use right/left step to see the correct captain's cabin instead the water.

I try few other thing in the game, but, with latest patches, I'm happy to report that raise Franch flag during escape from Oxbay works rightly <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" />

It's exactly what I do (replace my SEA_AI\Boal_deck.c with your) but Deck is still under water.

I try to replace the old Boal_deck.c, Boal_crew and Boal_cabin from the previous version of the ModPack (05-jan-06) and these work rightly.

PS.

I've found another bug: In FdF the FreeBob Quest can't start, when try to speek with FreeBob he response that can't found his dialog entry (something like that).

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Lord Nelson,

About 1st problem, I see that when leave Oxbay with French flag sometime I'm recognized (and French cannons fire over me) sometime not (and French cannons didn't shot me), so for me this doens't seems a bug but just a good stuff.

About 3th problem, Try to install all additional download (New Insland, Buildset, etc) and then the last patch (the full one 8MB sized), I had the same problem and I resolved so.

About 4th problem, I found a dialog with the carpenter (in Oxbay beach next to new construction) that allow to remove all additional contruction in Oxbay (I don't like these too).

No bug, "only" bad architecture. As GO said, the worker at the new shack will explain and remove them.

Umm, "RunMe.bat" , dated 12Nov05 ? That may be an outdated translation mod batch file from a previous version. FAIK you must run LangSwithEnabler.bat. Maximus, Pieter?
BTW, FAIK the folderstructure of American and European PotC are different. Those reshuffling of files for the translationmod was FAIK based on the Euro version. Could that cause a problem for US users? (Just asking, it may well work fine)

Well, I could start a new game without major problems.
But if you ask Malcolm at the gamestart for the clothes "Worn vest" you get a crash because:
"CreateCharacter -> character Blaze can invalide model(9Ta) or animation(woman_sit)
Can't create character: Blaze"

In patrol_dialog.c the translation mod bungled sentences and yet another voicesound path. Here is a corrected file.


In this line in LAi_events.c
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->        if(chr.sex != "monkey" && chr.name!=LanguageConvertString(tmpNameFileID,"Crewmember")&& chr.chr_ai.type != LAI_TYPE_BUILDING) // so that it doesn't run for corpses & monkeys and permanent crewmembers (Screwface) & buildings (ccc building kit Jan06)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
the last check preventing corpsecreation after building dismantling had been pushed out, probably because of the translation stuff in front.

i tried that, it doesn't work
can you tell me which order you installed them in?
and if that doesn't work, how about telling me what i can do to remove all the mods and leave me with a clean potc other than to uninstall and reinstall?
 
<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" />

You guys were right, thanks Pieter....this is what I found, there is the underscore on the second folder

[attachment=311:attachment]

Now here is a question................Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do I fix these without overwriting the old files onto the new files??
 
<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/type_1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":nk" border="0" alt="type_1.gif" />

"CCC" thank you , but Pieter was right, the is no way Windows should have allowed that mistake, and "giuliootto" pointed it out. The second Folder with all the capitals was followed by an "Underscore"

Question to you? 1) How does one find the "can't load Dialog.c" errors...can I help track some of these down and as I find them, submit them, or is it easier to ask you guys as we find them? As there are a few of them creeping around, seems they might be all connected and simple to fix, but maybe not?

2) I left the buildings on the beach but got rid of the "forest" inside second Oxbay location. Then I tried to get rid off the build stuff around Greenford church, but after everytime I did kill the guy, As I walked around the town, I would just "Die" with those "skeleton voices", that say "Your going to die ...Human!" There seemed to be a flash and I would crumple to the ground dead. Then I would come to in the tavern Room, after that Scene with Danielle I think, (I have never gotten that far in this game .....Nowheres near actually) Finally I put two and two together, and after killing those guys with the "Shrubberies"............I ran in fear of my life for the nearest exit, and stayed alive.....Finally!! WHY??

3) You Sir!, are a prankster....NO? Now I got this "Build Permit" (actually 2 of them) kicking around and stuck with them.....BAHAHAHAHA...( I liked it, and you have been waiting for someone to admit it I think) but it leads me to a favorite topic that even Pieter liked as well. In Chests there SHOULD BE NO LIMIT to the powder and shot that are stored. As of now, I have to add a bag and flask to get chests to hold extra...DUH!!! Characters are fine, I can live with that, but the Arms Locker or Powder Magazine onboard ships had no such limits. There is also the fact that "Gold" always goes to the front of the "inventory" list, WHY? There HAS to be a "priority number" or something to govern this. Your build permits also went to the front of the list, albiet because they could not be gotten rid of, so can we not make it so the powder and shot goes near the front as well, so we don't have to go through long list of plunder to move shot and powder between crew and chests. Everytime I go to move shot and powder to crew members they always move to the very back of the inventory list....this is really annoying, not a bug...but Pisses me off none the less. How about it? What do you think? Things like "EQUIPPED" sword, Gun, Spyglass...the ARM for sure should be second after gold, and that one should be non-removable, ( I did it, I gave away my arm fer gawd sakes...Stupid huh?)

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" /> Lord Nelson,

Here there is the order that I follow:

1_build12_full.exe
2_post_b12.zip
3_new_islands.zip
4_new_islands_code.zip
5_building_set.zip
6_daede_character_models.zip
7_mapships.zip
8_corsairs3_models.zip
9_windrose.zip
10_update_24-01-2006_full.zip

However many bugs of the 17/1/06 version are resoved but there are still many introduced after that.

I would suggest to everybody that are bores for bugs introduced by last modpack to keep two version of the game, one for test and one for play. When the one for test is perfect and bugs free use that for play and install a new POTC for test new stuff. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Bug for sure!, Alot of the characters will not hold there skins. If you change skins on your characters, and then face them and exchange items, when you escape back out, they have reverted back to their old skins again....this was never a problem before.

Also for some reason, the chests in the Cabins now hold powder and shot with out limitations....this is a good thing, but Nobody mentioned that this was fixed or changed?? Was it intentional or just good luck?


Also excellent Job Pieter on the cabins, my frigate has a beautiful Spacious cabin in Her. Only the crew quarters, and the Deck now go below water. But this is nuisance at best, because if you use sidestep, you pop back up to the proper cabin/deck fer sure. not a game stopper!. Also there is a new Big Black ship deck when Grappling and boarding, I'm guessing it is the Black Pearl deck but never gotten near the end of this game, I'm guessing only. <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" /> There are a lot of improvements you guys, don't get too discouraged yet!

aHOY THAR Lord Nelson, the Windrose, was a file to allow the Map to be shown sorta reversed so the North/South work properly. Seems a map or two back if you sailed by Compass, your East was West and So forth. Not sure if you still need it but here it tis!

[attachment=312:attachment]

Well, now this be a bug for sure...Twice today whiles playin, I changed my officers from one ship to the other, using the Ship to Ship transfer. Wanted to be addin Powder and Shot to certain Officers who didnt have as much, and allow ones that been aboar to come ashore fer awhile. As i escaped outta that menu, my Computer crashes to the desktop with that stupid "send Yer Bug Report away" message. Both times it claims the engine.exe incountered a problem
 
Yuo don't need to do anything with that windrose.zip. It's already in one of the update files. <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 will try to answer all latest comments now. I'm sorry if I miss one though.

It will be fixed in the next update for leaving Oxbay the first time. However, fixing it for any other moment in the game is going to be tricky. I would recommend that you save the game before you have to trick the French. Then when you are recognized, load your savegame.

I think it might be related to that. If it is related to that, it should be fixed with the latest fix in a file attached to one of my previous posts. I will add it into a proper update some time soon.

Please install the new islands file again, then the latest (full) update. I hope that would fix it. The new islands code might be out of date, which would explain the crash.

i lost a load of skills and alot of money i set in build settings [as my kind of royal relative leaving me all his money in his will idea] 1,000,000,000 and after i captured the captain i had a look at my cannons because of damage and noticed i had 265,000 gold !, and after that i got upset and suspitious and checked the charecter screen and i was the captain, name and everything exept personal wealth !<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->That one I think I have fixed. I will add it into a modpack update soon.
