-   -   Bug with Killing Wyverns? (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5709)

I am having some troubles with BG2 now that I am out of the Underdark.
I noticed this bug earlier, when I tried to cast Wyvern call with Edwin. The game boots me to desktop. Now I am in the forest area with Wyverns roaming and the same problem is happening. Everytime I kill a Wyvern I get booted.

I just installed TOB hoping this would solve the problem, but it hasn't. I also just downloaded the latest patch for TOB(to my knowledge). Any ideas on how i can fix this? Any help is appreciated.

<font color="gold">Hmm, havent heard of this bug before, but maybe you'll find a fix at Baldurdash.

And if you dont find a fix for it, you can just avoid going there. There isnt a single quest or anything there, so you diont miss anything going there.</font>


see ya!

Uninstall the hole game and then install BG2+Tob. I dunno it could help.

Weird bug...

I has a similar bug in the Final Battle. At random times it crashes, but never _after- I vanquished Irenicuses minions. My theory is that sometimes a certain animation frame goes missing or something, making the game die every time you try and use it. it should (read: might) go away when you replace the relevant files, the simplest way of doing this is to re-install the game.

I used to have that bug, however that was BG1, not BG2 [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] . Never did find anything that worked against it. Just don't go there, I don't think you're missing much.

i have that same thing. but i'm pretty sure it's not a bug. since it's happening with me on BG1 BG2 Icewind dale and everything else. I'm starting to believe it has to do with ram...

Harrys theory dosent seem to fit the fact that it only appears in certain places. If it was a lack of RAM itd appear whenever a lot of animations had to be loaded at once. Still, RAM is cheap at the moment, so it cant hurt.

Since you only seem to crash whenever a wyvern dies, I'll echo the opinion that it seems to be linked to a faulty set of animations--the sprite set for wyverns is probably corrupted. Again, re-installing should replace the files, unless your CDs are scratched or something.
