Tortuga problem

Riro

Landlubber
Well.....hi,
Im a really fresh member in this forum....so.....sorry if this was allready questioned and i havent seen it.
I have a problem with landing in Tortuga in Jack Sparrow storyline. Its because the fort there attacks me even when i have hoisted pirate flag. If there is some other way to the Tortuga (through jungle...), pls tell me how to get there.
Thx for answers and sorry for my english <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> .
 
It could be, that your relations to the pirates are more than (-65). That is bad enough for the Tortuga Fort to shoot at you. If you bring your relations to the pirates down to (-60) the problem should be solved.

If this is not working, please return.

I'm having the same problem. Lol. I think we should swap ships with the interceptor first but boarding the interceptor is also bugged. Norrington just sits and stands and I can't talk to him.

Ok first I'll address Mr. Gibbs problem.
<!--quoteo(post=0:date=:name=Captain Maggee)--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Captain Maggee)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->In your POTC directory goto: PROGRAM\Storyline\LegendJackSparrow\quests and open quest_reaction.c and then find the line in case "the_pirates_leave":
// LAi_type_actor_Reset(characterFromID("James Norrington"));
and get rid of the // and Norrington will stand up
(You will have to start a game from before going to prison for this part to work)
and also:
add these 3 lines just before if:
(AUTO_SKILL_SYSTEM) in case "Turner_and_me_take_ship2":
LAi_SetActorType(characterFromID("James Norrington"));
LAi_ActorWaitDialog(PChar,characterFromID("James Norrington"));
LAi_ActorDialog(characterFromID("James Norrington"),PChar,"",1.0,1.0);<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Now the second problem of Tortuga shooting you we will have a look at (major bug) and doesn't allow you to land on Isla De Muerte with the Interceptor either (for future reference)
 
Nice!

That solved it! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Thanks! Now all I need is to get to Tortuga without being blown to bits! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />

Anyway, If I sail with the pirate flag on and bombard ships (except pirates), will it increase my relations with the pirates?
 
You need to become famous and then you can join the pirates by talking to the Nevis pirate leader.
 
Solved.....now i have another problem:
When i go to tavern i meet Bill Turner and he says that i must go to somewhere.....but i dunno where. When i check quests there is some nonsense like: now u must sail to now.....and something (i think there is a mistake cos there isnt any towns name between "to" and "now"
Can u pls tell me where to go?
 
Bootstrap appears twice in the Tortuga tavern...

If it is the time you sail to Tortuga with Susan Shaypen then you need to set sail for Nevis (the pirate settlement part).

If it is after the marroning then sail to Jamacia and get ready for some very familar stuff <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Lol. Famous? You mean like increasing your rep from matey to hero? or..?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think the part your up to Mr. Gibbs it doesn't really matter how famous you are. I used a thing that skips most of the story <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> testing something else and got to that stage and still get blown to pieces...

You can land if you come out of the world map near Tortuga, then go back in and sail out of Land Ho! distance (sail to Turks) and then go relation and click pirate banner, then personal pirate. Go back to world map and sail to Tortuga and they shouldnt blow you to pieces and allow you to land
 
I mean actually being famous. This depends mainly on your personal wealth, which you get from salary and dividing the plunder in small amounts.
Quickest way is to get a Letter of Marque, get promoted, get land and gain wealth from that.
Of course the more famous you are, the higher the chance of your false flags being recognized. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />
 
Thanks! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Got far this time and I have to sail to Isla de Muerte!

Do this:
1. Sail to Tortuga in world map (when it says sailho leave map not when your right in the port!)
2. Go back into world map and sail close to Cuba
3. Go to character menu-relations-pirates and press personal then pirates
4. Enter world map and sail to Tortuga (should let you land now)
 
thanks that worked...but before that fix i tried editing the story bit under program>storylinr>legenjacksparrow>questreactions
here
//Trigger Pirate flag on entering map
// pchar.quest.become_a_pirate.win_condition.l1 = "MapEnter";
// pchar.quest.become_a_pirate.win_condition = "become_a_pirate";
break;

i took out the // on the two lines under trigger pirate flag (cos i thought it was the flag that was the problem)
however i know thats not the problem...so i went back to the game before this to save and when i landed on a beach in hispaniola will talked to me and said to go to the tavern to find mr. gibbs.....i then made the change above to try and let me into tortuga and then repaired it but now will doesnt talk to me when i land and mr. gibbs isnt in the tavern on tortuga..please help im really angry that ive just got past one obstacle and now i have this one....
thanks

Gibbs is in a little side bit on the path to the left of the tavern
 
ok i talked to the nevis pirate leader but all it has is ... as all i can say...i think its cos im an unknown freebooter....i joined the pirates and killed some ships but stil: unknown freebooter....u cant get a letter of marque for pirates so what do i do....
 
To be able to JOIN the pirates, you must be famous. So indeed it won't work if you're an unknown freebooter.
