Bug Report 2.02

Post by ayergo »

Post 'em here.
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

at the time I had the Ocean Spear equipped.

Should be fixed in next rev.

I didn't think much of the coincidence at the time, but this has happened twice now and I'm worried it might be a pattern.

Yesterday my NWN2 game crashed and when I loaded it up, BG was down. Just a few minutes ago, I noticed a small visual glitch and decided to reload to see if that cleared it. When I logged out, BG went down again.

Have other PCs noticed this happening when they log out? Could there be some corruption in my character file that's doing it? Or is this something else entirely and I'm just being paranoid?

Maybe. I know that similar crashes (lockup, reboot required) were happening on TSM and recently stopped. Did you notice anything similar happening over there?

edit: and what are these visual glitches?

The torches I bought from vendors were dead on purchase. I have flint and tinder, unless there is something that needs to be done outside of equipping them that I am missing...

From memory torches wont work when quick slotted, they must be equiped from the inventory screen. Its an obsidian thing thats been around for ever.

edit: and what are these visual glitches?
The first time it was just a general, unexplained NWN2 crash. I've found they happen once in a blue moon on even the best machines. The second time was a deliberate log-out on my part but in both instances, the server seemed to go down the instant my PC was disconnected.

As for the visual glitch, that turned out to be a false alarm. It was just a popup window for my anti-virus updater that was intruding on the game screen and causing a square of space to appear jumbled and pixilated.

Torches in store inventories marked as "infinite" do not work. Single instances in store inventories seem to be fine. Go figure.

All torches are single instance currently so not sure what else to do. Tymora temple sells light item that may be better substitute.

That torch business was discussed long ago when we discovered that the shops were carrying two versions. If you see a single torch for sale, it's probably the Obsidian version, and won't work right. If you see a long list of them, and purchasing one of them diminishes the list (ie. single instance, as Curmudgeon mentioned) they're the ALFA versions and work fine. Again, as long as you equip them manually, and remember they have a 1 hour lifespan once lit. That appears to be a minor bug, but a little annoying, to light a torch for a few moments to see something better, and try it again after an hour's passed and it won't light... *shrugs* I prefer Lem's perpetual light source, even if it's radius is a bit limited :lol:

Lita's Equipement: Lita's a liar. She claims to purchase gems and jewelry for a fair price. She won't buy anything, since every item you mouse over shows 0gp. Even my +1 Platemail.

Should be fixed in next update. She still won't buy platemail though.

*The Herbalist does not buy phosphorescent moss, though it hsould be worth 3g/3xp.

She doesn't want it. pmoss is for another repeatable quest, not herbs.

*The Giant Spiders in the cave by the waterfall south of BG down the Trade Way do not give any xp even though the doom bugs and spiders give 1.

Not sure what cause of this is all scripts and CR seem reasonable, I'll have to get more info in game.



*In another cave (the sea cave?) there are several graphical errors. 1) Water trap that acts as drowning (approximately 9 damage, blinded, deafened) without any graphical warning of it's presence. 2) A door that is only on one of the tiles so you cannot pass through it, but it acts as a "one way window." 3) Several corners do not meet in the dungeon (can see into the "infinite darkness" outside of the tiles)

These are the diving scripts when you descend into the water. Looked like there is visual queue to me, need more information on these.


*Resting as a bard does not regain your spells (likely to also affect sorcerers).

*Resting does not cure ability damage.

Acadius looking into these, i have no control here sorry.

*No priests actually offer healing, those that have the dialogue redirect you to the purchase page.

Please submit suitable healing scripts and convos for use.
