strange bug on douwesen

hi! I am playing the quest where I lost my crew and ships in a storm. So I head to douwesen city, but the tavern is locked. Everything is locked. What should I do?
 
exit the town, towards the jungles. then, keep on walking straight ahead through several locations for as long as you can. you'll find your answer at the very end.
 
oooh I found a man in the tavern. sorry <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
so, I talked with the old man, got on his ship, killed him and his crew and what should I do next? there are NO options <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
you got his ship. good. have a read in your logbook. where was danielle heading? look around the islands. you'll figure it out. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
i couldn't capture his ship - there was no enter icon <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> so i loaded my previous save, acted in different way and got off the island

btw: the first time when I killed him there was no entry in the logbook, although there was a new quest icon...
 
you got his ship automatically. some guy should have entered the tavern after you killed the captain. (note: NOT the thug)

'got ON his ship' and 'got his ship' are two different things. You killed the captain on his ship deck? I didn't know you could do that. Which Build version are you using?
I know that in the stock game there were different options at that part of the main quest, some of them being removed in later Build versions (like the one in which you ends up by having to sail from Greenford lighthouse to Isla Muelle in a tartan boat.)

I don't think anything should've been removed there. Only thing I remember is that there used to be an unfinished dead end here which would lead to a black screen of death. Pirate_KK fixed that at some point.
 
I am using now build13 final. yes, i killed him on his ship deck, after that there were no options <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dev.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":d:" border="0" alt="dev.gif" />D:D:D
 
Well... I've just taken a look at the code Pirate_KK rewrote... Normally, you shouldn't have been able to kill them, you should have jump over board... Tell me, was the dialog onboard the ship like that :

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->"Admiring the sea, are you? I never get tired of it myself."
"Since we set sail our course is SE, stright to Oxbay. Meanwile to reach Isla Muelle we should go ENE. It looks like you've decided to break our agreement, old man."
"Good guess. You may be smarter than you look. Give me your sword and pistol, and we'll see you safely to the Oxbay mines."
"Will you? And what will your crew think of that? "
"What do I care what they think?"
"Maybe you don't. But I can't help thinking your men may not enjoy working for a lying dog like yourself. Maybe that's why you've had such a hard time finding sailors for your crew."
"Talk all you like. It'll do you no good."
"Perhaps you're right. Maybe I should talk to your men instead. What do you say, gentlemen? Are you happy with Captain Small-Time, here, or are you ready for the really big scores?"
"That's big talk for a condemned man. Do you actually expect anyone to fall for it?"
"Look behind you, captain, and ask me that again."
"I don't need to look. I chose my crew very carefully. Fact is, most of them don't even speak English."
"Pirate scum!",<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->


Normally this should have followed :
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->"Hey! What are you doing here?!",
"Is that the shore over there, between the land and the sky? So long, captain!"
"Catch him!"
"..."<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Maybe you killed them to fast?


For Pieter Boelen : apparently you're right, nothing was removed <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
