<!--sizeo:4--><span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>In the main quest, I have talked to the prison commander, and fought his men, when I leave and head for the port I'm supposed to capture the English Frigate with the idol on it, but the ship comes up on the radar green, so I can't attack it or board it to get the idol. I would like to get the idol, and get over to the lighthouse to meet danielle, </b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec-->

I can't even attack it. It shows up on the radar as a friendly ship. What should I do?

 

[morgan terror]

I can't even fire the guns. Ships guns will not fire. i'm playing build 13 final. If that helps.

 

[morgan terror]

egh.... press V in first person camera mode.

 

[Al-Kateb]

It's didn't get angry or fire back, but It surrenderred. i sunk it, and got the idol. Thanks.

I had to 3-D sail back to the lighthouse, is that typical?


But thanks a bunch.

 

[morgan terror]

well, the ship isn't supposed to be friendly anyway, so it's probably not the only thing that's messed up. you should be able to use fast travel to get to the lighthouse.

Nope. Can't do that. Have to 3-d sail it.

And it crashes before the movie.

it seems to me you have a pretty messed-up main quest there if you ask me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

the best option is to restart from the last save and see if you can sink the british frigate this time....

Had no good saves. Had to start a new game becasue when i got to Khael Roa, the ships were still green in the radar. There was no way to destroy them. Sucks!
