Problem with "Strange things in Arperchio" at end

[redterminator]

I am playing this mission and am to the point where I am in Greenford looking for the "Teacher". The barkeeper tells me he's in Greenford jail and to go talk to the Warden. There's only one problem: the Warden was killed (by me) during the Incan idol mission assigned by the Redmond governor. So is this a bug in the game or is there some other way to get the the "Teacher" out of jail?

Ahoy there Fred Bob.

I've read a little about the mod package here on the forums. If I install it now while I'm in the middle of a game, will I be ok or will I need to start over? Also, are there any cautions with respect to the rest of the game with the mod? Thanks, matey.

<b>redterminator</b><br />, if you install build 12, you will have to restart the game. If you wish to finish the stock game first, I suggest you find an old save before you killed the warde, then complete the "Strange things..." quest first. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="8)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" />

Thanks for the reply but I don't have an old save. Plus I'm pretty close to the end and don't want to reply half of the game again. Is there anything else I can do (such as editing the save) to be able to complete this mission? How does the mod fix this problem? Does it offer an alternative to talking to the Warden?

Aye! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> If'n Fred Bob be rememberin' correctly, de Tavernkeeper becomes an alternate 'trigger' fer de quest!

As fer edittin' de save, aye, NathanKell sometimes be willin' tew edit dem fer folks, but he ain't around at de moment, prolly still on holiday ye know. Ye could zip up yer save an' email him (look in his Profile) an' ask him nicely promisin' him a few barrels o' rum an' he might do it fer ye! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
