Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Technical Problems Bloody Yellow Baflimiri Mushroom Cave

Typical that I'd go about things different to the norm. I explored the burnt island area, went into the alchemists cellar thing while he wasn't there, went outside and found the Blue Larikiki root and Grey Quisirisi Fruit and picked them up thinking they may be useful for later whatever they are. Found that I needed to find the alchemist and didn't check the cellar thing again for a long time because it was empty earlier and now he tells me to go in a cave that I can't get to. The rock gives me no dailogue to move it and I've read that the patch is meant to fix this but it hasn't done, it's still an inanimate rock

Any suggestions? (Except loading an ealier save, last one before that is somewhere in the Citadel I think and I can't be arsed to walk round the whole Island again)

Cheers

(Oh and the area below the rock that you supposedly can't get to because of the lava, you can get there by throwing a Teleporter Pyramid across, not that the game likes it because when I tried that I met an Imp that I was supposed to have met and I don't think I had)

There is a workaround for the problem with the cut scene at the cave not being triggered.

[*] 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.


For the cave with the imp, had you explored to the south east first you would have meet the imp earlier, and he would have told you to leave, letting it slip that he was there looking for treasure. The conversation in the north east makes a reference to this, even if you had not encountered him before.

hmm, I tried that a while ago and it didn't work. It seemed to revert back to the old file when I loaded from it. Do the quests have to be completed? The imp looking for her husband has disappeared along with him when I didn't tell him to go home and just let him talk to the other imps about the spider and the imps under the poisonous mushroom have been saved but I moved the anti-dote and it came back as a quest. Will this stop the workaround working or is it just to make sure I got all the experience I could from the quests?

That's the point. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> The old story files have not been updated with the quest information from finding and moving the cure ingredients, so by following the steps in a safe order, you can trigger the cut scene at the mushroom cave rock.

I'm not sure if the imp hero and his wife usually disappear if you do not send him home. The mushroom spore quest entry is just a cosmetic problem. Not completing other quests should not effect the workaround, but using the workaround may effect your ability to complete other quests.

What I meant was I replaced the file, loaded from it and then it seemed to change back to the file I replaced. In other words the quests didn't actually revert back to having not been done, it still says I've found the alchemist and the cave won't open - how very very annoying

Now when I go to talk to the cheiftain's son everything stops as if they're going to talk but they don't, I can't find Altoflix either. I don't know why it's doing this but it's something typical to me going about things the unusual way
