Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Mid-dialogue Saves are Currently Disabled

Gog version 4.1.84.2021

I cannot save or quick save. The game does not auto-save either. I thought it was a bug with one of my characters and decided to switch to a different one and create a new one, it happens with everyone. This is a game issue.

This doesn't seem like it's happened for a while based on me searching the forum but I just had this bug! After saving the tiefling from the bugbear assassin, it seemed like a cinematic was about to trigger but instead the screen just went black and stayed that way. I tried pressing escape, going in and out of turn-based mode, various action hotkeys, but nothing changed. I tried to quicksave and load, but it turned out that the save didn't work - probably because of this issue. I loaded my previous save, and every time I try to quicksave or save through the menu I run into the error message "mid-dialogue saves are currently disabled while we work on functionality." I tried another potential fix I saw, having each companion initiate and exit conversation with an NPC - no effect. Has anyone found a fix for this, or is my file wrecked?

I had this problem a few times and unfortunately I hadnt saved the game so I lost an hour or 2 of game play Twice I just restarted a new character,,,,,

Just wanted to try to put this out there again to see if there's a solution, or to get it addressed in the next patch... this time it happened to me in the goblin camp after I killed everyone. The two human recruits outside weren't aggro'd so I talked to them. The female one didn't have any dialog and I couldn't proceed until I pressed space as if I was skipping a cutscene. Then I couldn't save again. 😭

Mid dialog saves have never worked and it is known/deliberate. There's even a message you get when you try.
