Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Technical Problems Act 2: No mushroom cave for me

I've searched the forums for a solution to the "picking up one of the alchemist's quest items before been given the quest" bug, but the only solution I've seen is to reload an old save game. This isn't really an option for me, as I picked up the item at level 10 and am now lvl 20 and don't really feel like doing all that leveling again.

So what I'm asking is, is there a way to fix this or will it be addressed in the next patch. If I have missed a fix somewhere in the forums, sorry, and could you please point it out to me.

Thanks

There is another solution, but a patch fixed the problem (maybe not retroactively) so the workaround wasn't mentioned very often.

[*] Complete all other quests and save the game.
[*] If you have a save before finding the alchemist's ingredients and moving them, copy the 2 story.* files from that save into your latest save, otherwise you can use these files from a save at the beginning of the imp village.
[*] Talk to Altoflix in the north of the village (if required), then the chieftain's son to get the quest to find the alchemist, talk to the alchemist once (only) and head to the cave.
[*] Continue with the game.
