I've got a problem in act 2
After telling the impchief's son about the cause of the plague he tells me to go find the imp alchemist.
Well i've found him, but i can't talk to him. Whenever i click on him nothing happens. In the room there are two other imps to who i can talk, but the alchemist just doesn't respond.

Does anybody know what the problem can be

I had this once - but the alchemist was between walls - is your's free in the room? Hopping around?
Kiya

Which patch version, please? Have you tried to exit and re-enter? Or made an extra save, quit the game and then re-loaded?

He should talk to you in a cut scene conversation as you approach.

number 1 in the fire area - you should be at 10, coming from imp village. It's a cavelike entrance.

Hi all,

I have the same problem.

I've found him, but i can't talk to him. Whenever i click on him nothing happens.

Some1 say that a cut scene start when you approach the alchimist.
I try approach him , enter exit again, but nothing <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

I run the game with the patch 1.45.

Sorry for my bad english <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You found the cure for plague, then got the quest to find the alchemist from the chieftain's son?

Try deleting the files in the dynamics folders;
'..\Beyond Divinity\Acts\Act1\Dynamic', '..\Beyond Divinity\Acts\Act2\Dynamic', etc.
These folders are used as a cache for the game. Files are created / copied there from the save game folder when you load, and written / copied to those folders when you save a game. The files will be re-created as required the next time you start Beyond Divinity. If there was a corrupt file in those folders, deleting the files should fix the problem.


Maybe save the game under a new name (a temporary save), and try the workaround for the now-fixed bug with the cure ingredients (finding and moving them in your inventory before speaking to the alchemist, causing a quest entry to be updated prematurely, so a cut scene was not triggered).

[*] 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.

If this works, you will have to reload a previous save, complete all other quests, and then perform this procedure again (changing story files may interfere with completing partially done quests).
