Okay folks, for everyone who has been having trouble with the game locking up when making an transition from one area to another, try this:

In order to 'jump' from one map to another you can use the following cheat:

Open the 'icewind.ini' file in the game directory. Add the line 'Cheats=1' under the '[Game Options]' section. Save the file. (I suggest that you back up this file FIRST to another directory just in case. Better safe than sorry.)

Run the game. Press Ctrl + Tab to display the console window.

Then type CHEATERSDOPROSPER:MoveToArea("ARxxxx") where xxxx is the area code of that map. This is case sensitive so be careful!

(Note: I believe that the proper command with HOW or TOL installed is as listed above, BUT some sources quote the proper command as CLUAConsole - which I think only works with JUST IWD installed. Try BOTH if one doesn't work. I'm trying to verify this with BIS right now.)

Lonelywood is AR9100
Barbarian Camp is AR9200

A good FAQ/Spoiler that has all the area codes is the one by Dan Simpson which can be found at http://www.gamefaqs.com/

This is only a temporary solution and you may find that the same problem occurs again later on. I strongly urge everyone with this problem to contact BIS tech support and have them help you out with a permanent fix to the problem. [img]smile.gif[/img]
