Hello! Playing on PC with Steam as the client, currently doing my first Honour Mode run. I’m using at least a hundred mods, most of them cosmetic or that add objects and customization options. Nothing in them alters gameplay or combat mechanics in anyway.
I’ve managed to play all the way to Act 3 without any problems. I reached the point after killing Orin that I decided to go to the Iron Throne to rescue the hostages there. Omeluum is present. For some reason, loading the Iron Throne area causes any subsequent saves to be unable to load up. The game just gives the “Server Shutting Down” error when I try to load any save file after this point in the campaign. The error occurs even after loading back into the Lower City, and it doesn’t matter if I docked and rescued the hostages or heeded Gortash’s warning and returned the sub to the harbor to not break his alliance.
Playing the rest of the game without ever loading the Iron Throne area doesn’t have this problem at all, so it must be something to do with that zone in particular. I doubt the mods have anything to do with this as the game has been running just fine up to this point before loading the Iron Throne, so I doubt that any of them would be the cause of this weird save file corruption.
Has anyone else had this problem regarding the Iron Throne on Honour Mode with mods as well? If so, I would appreciate any feedback. Already tried the potential solutions listed by Larian here:
https://larian.com/support/faqs/errors-or-crashes-when-loading-saves_82 But unfortunately none of them worked. Would be a shame if I have to play the rest of this run without rescuing the Iron Throne hostages, especially since it’s the first time I’m playing with Omeluum present among them and would like to experience that quest completely.
