I've finished the game, now in the BFs. Problem is, I'm encumbered even though
the stats show I'm UNDER my weight allocation! I've tried getting naked, getting all my dolls naked...OK the dolls are now fine (they were encumbered) but I'm still overweight!!! And I'm under the weight allocation, even according to the stats! The only thing that work was a large strength potion, but when it wore off, same thing! Am I doomed to slow crawl! HELP!

is it too late to ask if you have "patched already" ?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
or could it be something else... Hmm? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />

Reminds me of the problem I recently had with my summoning doll ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

When did this occur ?


When you find a big kettle of crazy, it's best not to stir it.

Did you try picking up barrels, etc until you are actually over the weight capacity, and then drop them, so see if that resets the status?


What is your strength? Depending on the game difficulty setting, a large strength potion boosts the stat by about 40, so there would be a large temporary increase in weight capacity. Unfortunately that does not help once it wears off.
The weight capacity is given by; Weight = 60*Strength + 800

Maybe if you try hex editing yourself a spare stat point to add to strength, that might update the overweight status? I have not checked this procedure in the after game BF, but I would expect the same pattern to hold (I can check it if you wish, or can not get it to work).
Hex editing - gold, experience, stat/skill points


Do you have a save near the end of the game? Perhaps redoing the final fight and entering the after game BF again with the patch installed will help. Maybe clean out your hero's inventory of any unneeded quest items, etc in case the problem was something in the inventory that triggered the overweight status on act change.

Has your character been hit by the Disease spell (looks like a green mist)? I found thet in the after game BFs a lot of enemies used that. Try learning the spell which removes Disease (i can't remember the name) and cast it. This should sort out your problem. If not, then sry, but i can't help.

can it be that you are in sneak mode?

(i dont understand that a strength potion will make a difference, but its worth looking into)


Your existence alone, is excuse enough for the creation of the entire universe… Il you my darling Jeanne-Dré 
