Hi there makers of a great rpg game,
i want to report an issue and hope for some help very soon.
Thanks to all who will take time and read this, hf.

First of all i dont think its an issue with my Hardware so ill just let you know i got 4gb Ram, if you need more informations about this ill try to edit it.

My Problem started right away at Reapers Coast, when Maladya teleported us from the hall of echos.

Symptomatics:
-Game is loading to about 90% (i believe) when it stucks and i have to wait like 5minutes or so.

-Almost evry action i do is delayed and things are running like a broken puppet, like gangplanks toy skin in league(i dont know how to describe it better)

-Ram usage gets to about 95-100% and windows lets me know to better shut down the programm

With this problem i still played a better, i saved the boy and his mom, you know the one´s screaming "MAA MAAA MAA?" behind the bridge with the voidmonsters.
And then i just decided to stop playing to not get serious problems with my laptop.

Main Problem:
I just think some bug or error or problem or whatever you would call it, uses to much ram and is breaking the 4gb (Minimum requirments) barrage and with that i am not able to play any longer.
I mean i could keep playing but that would probably turn out in game crashes or worse and i dont want to play till that happens i need a fix now, or i cant play.

Similar problems accured to many people and you guys from larian already worked on that or still are working on a fix for this i guess. As far as i know there was a hotfix on the 9/18 or 9/17 and this fixed for many other people this problem or atleast similar ones. But my Problem is still there.

Maybe its a corrupted save file im not sure, but the last thing i can tell you guys right know about this is:
My savegame from before Reapers Coast was about 6,49mb(on the Lady Vengeance already) and i did not have any problems right there, but as i said before when it loaded first time for Reapers Coast it took so damn long and my savegame got almost twice the size now, about 11mb.

I hope anyone can help me or anyone from the Devs can let me know that this is already in the work on fixing.

Thanks

/e oh and i forgot i already tried to reinstall the game and i have no mods.

Here something i missed and wrote to the support too.
It should describe evrything a bit more detailed.

"Hi,
i think i missed a couple information about my Laptop and the Problem.

First:
Intel Core i3-2310M
4GB DDR Memory
AMD Radeon HD 6650M 1GB VRam
500GB HDD

Symptomatics:
-Game stutters a lot when first loaded, about 3GB Ram Usage(Minimum Requierment is 2GB).

-Game stutters when moving, casting spells, opening Questbook Inventory Crafting Menu etc (atleast for the first time).

-When i move my Leading Character from point A to B (lets say 10M), my team follows but they dont stop at point B, they slide away through evry Object and
after a few seconds(sometimes takes long sometimes not) they "teleport" back to the leader. It is literally a Delay, some Sort of Delay i only see in Online Games when i get Internet issues(Highping etc.)


Problem:
My Problem is that i cannot play with the Symptomatics above, when i first load a Savegame i get up to 3.5GB Usage (saw in Task-Manager).
I have similar Issues in the new Game DOS2 too, thats why i think there must be a Bug.


What i already tried etc.:

-Reinstall(both games) no effect.

-Deleting/rename DOSEE Folder in "My Documents" so the game will create a new one when i start and move the savegame i want to play in it(both games) no effect, maybe a lil bit on DOSEE but i am not sure.

-Playing with mods or without mods, same effect

-Starting the game with evry low Video Setting possible, no effect (though i didnt try to change Window mode)

-After starting my savegame i minimized instantly to watch the CPU and RAM Usage, CPU was like 20-30% while Ram was about 97%(3.5GB) BUT when i let the game stay minimized like about 5-15minutes the RAM Usage of DOSEE goes down to about 2.5GB(This only works on DOSEE not DOS2)

-When i am on 2.5GB Usage and i open Cheat Engine(i tried to cheat some Skillpoints) and try to First scan for Example "7", it takes very long and the Ram Usage of the Game is getting back to about 3.5GB. (only tired this on DOSEE)


With 2.5GB what seems still a bit much, i can play the Game normally. Though it lags and freezes/stutters sometimes but that is ok and almost rare.
What i think after i saw what happened when i Use the Cheat Engine is, that the game is using/opened to much data at once. But i dont know about that for sure.
I have the Problem of High Ram Using in both of the games. In DOS2 it started right in ACT2, and to be fair the map is much larger and the game is still under development and i got a low end laptop. But i could play Act1 without a Problem and as i said its ridicoulas that i have almost the same Problem in both games.

In other games that are playable with my specs i dont have any Problems.

Excuse my poor English Skills.

If You need more information let me know and i hope You can help me.

Thanks so far."

Ty
