Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Technical Issues Game locks up while saving

Hi, if anybody else has been experiencing this issue or found any solutions please let me know

My problem is that the game frequently locks up on the "Saving.." screen, at least 30% of the times I try to save, if not more. Sometimes dynamic things in the background continue (flowing water, waving clothes/hair) but the "Saving..." wheel just spins forever and the process never completes.

It's not every time but enough that it's causing serious issues. I still haven't gotten to see where that teleport thing sends you after saving either Steven or Boris, just because my game locks up on the autosave every time. I had similar issues with the tutorial dungeon, since it autosaves when you enter there as well.

Has anyone else run into a lot of issues with saving? The game runs fine otherwise, it's just Russian roulette with a full clip every time I hit F5 and that's pretty frustrating. Anyone have any ideas?

I can post my specs if that helps

I encounter the same problem : my client freezes as well.

I've tried to begin a new game and the same problem arise.

I'm still at the begining of the game.

If you have a 32 bit version of Windows, freeing up as much memory as possible before starting the game may help.

A possible workaround for 32 bit Windows: Game freezes after during save screen.
