Default I'm starting to think I have a glitch on LeChuck's ship.

On the ship after being dropped from the crowsnest, I can't move Guybrush around with the keyboard or mouse, but I've also clicked on apparently all hotspots and gone through all Dialogue conversations with Elaine (the only option now is "Be Careful". I've been here ages and could really use some help.

Thanks!

Yikes! Try saving (in an empty save slot as to not overwrite an earlier game) and re-load.

Thanks! but Now I'm in the middle of a cutscene I haven't seen before. LeChuck and Guybrush are on the ship and LeChuck just pushed him into the ocean. I'll progress and see what happens...

Thats what would have happened next - LeChuck shows up and keelhauls you! I don't know why he didn't trigger for you, though.

Looks like it was a one time thing. I've been around the ship now. It seems it should only take a few seconds for LeChuck to turn up.

Thanks!

I also wasn't able to move on the ship. WASD did nothing and click-and-drag brought up the circle but did nothing else. Saving and loading didn't help, even when exiting to windows in between. Luckily I managed to finish the game anyway.

How am I suppose to get the key from the skeleton? I can't click anything when I'm under the boat. Am I just missing something or is it obvious?

Maybe you should make sure LeChuck is distracted while you're under water.

Click around before you get keelhauled.

hint: you have to have LeChuck stop pulling you along about half-way
giveaway: before getting keelhauled, ask Elaine to fight LeChuck

I had that same problem, but I fixed it by saving and then reloading, as every time you reload LeChuck shows up.

It only does it the first few times, after you almost finish that puzzle it no longer occurs, although it did happen to me once at the other end of the ship. Saving and reloading works a treat.

I had this glitch aswell. Lechuck just wouldn't come and knock me flying. Luckily, Saving/loading solved the issue.

Ha wow, I thought you were supposed to be stuck in one spot. Luckily Guybrush'll still move to interact with the environment. I thought all the frozen spears were a glitch until I remembered LeChuck using his time freezing powers about a minute before haha.

Me too with the glitch. In fact, saving and loading caused LeChuck to attack me immediately. The game must have realized the timer had gone almost 6 minutes over.

You can't move on LeChuck's ship - that's not a bug Guybrush probably should have looked more out of breath or something at those points. So it goes. LeChuck not showing up after 7-8 seconds is a bug, though.

It will sometimes take a little longer depending if you are doing some kind of action with your surroundings. I did have an occasion where I was talking to Elaine , got keelhauled and the conversation still went on while I was onder the ship

Anyone who has been experiencing this issue, could you send me the save-game you made when you were stuck?

Being able to crack open your save game will help us figure out where the game logic has wandered off and gotten confused.

Have you got an email address i can send it to? It says it's an invalid file type to upload here.

Also, it just automatically starts the cutscene where lechuck drags guybrush underwater. Would you like the save i made 20 mins before aswell?

*edit* Never mind, i uploaded the save somewhere else. Sending you the link now.

I had this problem as well. Whenever I Alt/Tab to the Internet and go back the game 'locked up' and LeChuck never showed up to punch me around the ship.

Sounds like other people are having the same problem - don't know if that is necessarily why.
