Hello all C64-friends!
And now to the problem:
I have just startet using the emulater and I wanted to play my favorite
game (Pirates!), but when I have finished the first sword-fight, I am
asked to insert disc 2, so I press F9 and activates the second game-file
by pressing F4, when I go back to the game and I press ENTER and
everything seems to go fine, BUT only the usual information-screen
about cities and nationalities comes up (-you know what I mean if have
played the start of the game-) and it never comes any further - the game
refuses to load the rest - what is wrong or what am I doing wrong???
Please please help me - and thanks for all your help!

Be sure to read the instructions for use of Pirates! on that page.
It worked! A fine solution on a - well - simpel problem

I also loved this game. It worked fine for me, all though it does have a tendency to hang at various stages on load up. I found it works better if you use normal rather than fast load. the only problem i have have had is at the end when i go to divide plunder. It asks for side 1, which i then select, but it will not go further. If any one could advise on this it would be much appreciated.

Hi Pirates fan,
It may seems off topic but I still have problem when the disc #2 is required. I dowloaded the Eagles soft' Pirates! file from gb64, and read several FAQs and instructions but after the initial fencing it requires to insert disk side 2 and press trigger, but the gamee simply do bo go on. I use the game from gb64, which shoud not have this problem.
Any hints or option?
Thanks
