Larian Studios Forums Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis (English) Technical problems Older AMD cpu's that lockup after ladybug cutscene

I'll pass this on to engine team. Hopefully we will have a fix soon.
I will update this thread if any news.

We have been trying to reproduce this issue.

We were finally able to reproduce another issue where the game already quits after the first logo's movie with the latest Nvidia drivers. Workaround:
A) using 182.50 drivers.
B) using driver sweeper to uninstall all nvidia drivers and installing the latest one again.

We now have a new issue that happens right after the intromovie (where damian, the dragon and the slayer are shown).

Once this last issue has been looked at, we may have an answer.

So far this has only happened on one system with AMD processor.
Config:
Athlon 64 4600+
2GB ram
8800 GTS vidcard
WinXP SP3
with Directx from DVD & physx from DVD

Hopefully we will know more soon when the engine team knows exactly what is going on.

I will post more when there is more to post

maybe it is a AMD + Nvidia issue we need to think about that...

As anyone who has tried to play this game in english knows after the cutscene in character creation the game sticks inself into loading constantly and doesnt do anything. This fixed dialogs.dv2 files fixes that issue. copy it to \Divinity II - Ego Draconis\Data\Win32\Packed and replace the original dialogs.dv2 with this (back up the original first).

Then change the registry key for language to "English(US)". Then when you run the game you will be able to go past the cutscene following character creation and into the game itself. All voice acting remains in German but the subtitles are all in English.

One of our engine guys that is currently looking into this problem asked the following:

- Turn down texture quality to lowest
- try to run the game in the lowest possible resolution

Can anyone try if this puts them beyond the ladybug movie ?

Thanks in advance.
