I have just finished skull island, gone back to brimlock and sold off all my items, trained up and then saved just outside town. Then the game froze and everytime I load my saved game it just freezes after a few seconds. Is there a fix for this problems?

Welcome to the board, brad!!!
Sorry to hear that you are having difficulties, I hope we will be able to help. First you need to give us a lot more information: Type of computer, OS, memory, version of DirectX, software mode or 3D mode, vid card, patched or unpatched? Anything you can tell us about your hardware set up will help us figure out what the solution might be. Wyv |
Cool...
I am running windows 98 on a pentium 3 600 with a matrox video card and direct x 8. As for the rest, I am not sure... It only freezes after coming outof brimloch after completing skull castle though, all the other saves are ok until I get to the same point and then it freezes again. I've done skull castle three times now hoping that it was just a one-off, but I guess it isn't... |
Sorry, and 320mb of ram but I'm not sure about the rest tho...

If your game has been working fine up to Brimloch Roon, then it may not be your PC.
Copy your roster.dat and save game file first into another folder, then try starting W&W and instead of loading your saved game which has your characters outside of Brimloch Roon, go to the inn and select the "Revert Game" option. This will bring all your "out on adventure" characters back to the last town they were in. Now try exiting Brimloch Roon with your party again and hopefully your game won't crash.. The other possibility is that the game is known to crash if you equip the vampire ring. You can fix this problem by installing the patch (or going back to a game where you do not equip that ring). Let us know if you have any luck.. |
Oh yes - the VAMPIRE RING - I always forget that!
Thanks, young_one!! That seems like the most likely cause of your problems since 1) the game has been running fine until now and 2) you just completed Skull Castle where you can get that dragged ring! ;) You can grab the patch from http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/wiza...ownloads.shtml I personally don't like the patch (see the BEST TIPS thread for what it does and what it takes away). Hope that is the source of the problem - easy fix then! ;) Wyv |
Thanks guys, it was the ring. Seems a waste but I just sold it and the game hasn't crashed since...
|
YAY!!!
I'm glad the problem was solved! You can keep the ring if you patch your game (I like it better unpatched). At least now you can play onward!! Keep us posted!! Wyv |
