Release Notes - December 1, 2007 v1.0.1.34

• Founders program will end on Monday, December 1, 2007 at 12:01 AM (PT). You will now see different nametags for Unlimited Founders, Unlimited Non-Founders, and Basic Access players.
• Added quest tracking for the "return to a townsperson" step in a quest. When a quest is completed, a ray of light will point to the townsperson you need to return to.
• Fixed a bug with players and ships popping back and forth suddenly.
• Fixed a bug where grenades were hanging in mid air if someone else was also throwing a grenade.
• Fixed strange movement of grenade that occurred when a player is moving.
• Fixed an issue when switching to grenade that caused siege grenade to always be selected -- now your pirate will use the correct grenade ammo.
• Fixed a bug where players wouldn't be able to move when reloading small grenades.
• Slowed down player speed when they are using the Long Volley Grenade skill.
• Fixed an issue with the Voodoo Doll Swarm skill that was not recording damage correctly at long range.
• Fixed a problem with a ship being deployed but still retaining some speed from its previous use.
• Added feedback for when teleporting to a friend fails because the friend is unavailable for teleport (for example: in jail, playing PVP, etc...)
• Added more feedback for when boarding a ship fails (for example: ship sunk, ship had no more space, etc...)
• Fixed an exploit with Voodoo Staff that would allow players to switch between low level and high level skills to avoid long charge times.
• Fixed some bugs that were allowing players to move while charging the Voodoo Staff.
• Updated some loading screen hints.
• Fixed a bug that was causing more than one arrow to appear on the radar.
• Added a quest journal notification at the end of Chapter 3.
• Guild name submissions are auto-capitalized, and ALL CAPS are automatically removed.
• Fixed a bug in the Speedchat Plus chat mode where words that were not in the Speedchat Plus dictionary were not turning red as you typed them.

I wish they would fix the gold bug. I have sent in so many reports and all they tell me is that in an "upcoming update" they will release a patch for it. I don't need to play blackjack now, since I am done up to the boss battle with black pearl quest, but I just worry that this won't get fixed before the next chapter!

the gold bug
 

they will fix that when you give them back all the money you won at poker! lol, i had that in beta... unlimited funds.

Well, I wish they'd fix the Black Pearl quest. I'm lvl 25 notoriety with nothing much to do other than level up weapons.

Has anyone ever heard any scuttlebutt about when any new quest chapters will be available?
