Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Technical Problems Monster Crash

Whenever I go into the hole to save the imp in act2, I wake him up collect the money and gems, kill the monster and the game crashes. This happened to anyone else? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

I've figured it out!

I am on version 1.4. I'm guessing untill you hover your pointer over a box it has not decided what is in there yet. So when I hover my pointer over a box that should contain a magical item it causes some kind of conflict and crashes. Hopefully this has been fixed in 1.42. Does anyone know if I am right and has it been fixed?

Also is there a place with known issues all in one place that you could check to see if any problems you run into are being sorted out? If not the same things are going to come up over and over on the forum and difficult to find.

no problems with this quest in 1.42 with either pre 1.42 game or new game in 1.42

I am on v1.42 and my game still crashes as I move the cursor over a battlefield chest that I was using for storage. I assume that some item inside it has become corrupted but that is just a guess. Fingers crossed for v1.43.....

Sundance: can you send a savegame of this to kris at larian.com?

Thanks a lot

On its way (4.6 Mb zipped file)...
(I assumed that your "at" should be replaced with "@" for the e-mail address)

Maybe it's because you did patch to 1.41 on the way ? Larian clearly state that magical objects not in hero inventories may have lost their special abilities ... that's maybe what cause the problem with your chest

I don't think so. I read on the patch download page that there was a potential problem with 1.40 savegames, so I uninstalled BD, reinstalled and updated with just the 1.42 patch. I then went back to my last savegame before installing 1.40, and eventually encountered this bug ... and when I reached Act 3 I also found the "stuck in battlefield" bug, but that's another story <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

Just received this from Larian:

"Thanks a lot for your help. I found the problem and it will be fixed with the next patch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Thanks,
Kris Taeleman"

Hopefully this will also fix the other similar crash problems. Thanks for your quick response Kris.
