I got the Daredevil Jump Event today. It basically says that one of the villagers tied some vines to his legs and wants to bungee jump off the waterfall, you can choose yes or no.

Spoiler:


I'll take it, I'll just have to stay on him and make sure he's working and not jumping off the waterfall all of the time lol.

I have one of those "A heathen wants to join your tribe" event today...



Question:

I'm very sorry that you have encountered this issue in your game. Before you run the game again, please read this entire post, to make sure that we leave as many options open as possible.

The issue in the game where special heathens could be converted by an Island Event was fixed in the 1.00.01 update to VV5, which was released in February of 2011. Unfortunately, if you have an earlier version of the game and that event selects the heathen chief, there's no way to reverse it, even if you install an updated version of the game.

However, it may still be possible to recover from this situation.

If you haven't played the game since that happened, you may be able to go back to before the chief joined your tribe by using the backup savegame. Assuming that you're playing the game on a Windows computer, please perform the procedures in this entry in our FAQ to copy your game data to a another folder for safekeeping.

Once you have the data backed up, please reply here and let us know what version of the game you're running and where you purchased it. Then we can work with you to help you get past this issue.
