Stupid Bug or STupid Player

Man Sized Rooster · 03-29-2002, 01:27 PM

Okay, I've got ToB and I'm playing the game again on single player. Bizarrely, I can't get the sewage golem to talk to me, even with the activation stone. It says he's busy. Have I forgotten to do something obvious or is this some kind of bug? Anybody else had a similar problem?

It's a know bug, instal the latest official patch.

Thanks, that's saved me lots of pointless mucking around.

or you can just have a thief (you or imoen) pickpocket the golem for the key...

AFAIK he doesn't have a key. The door he opens is opened by his presence, somehow, not because he's carrying a specific item.

Anyway, the bug that causes NPCs to be busy when you need to speak to them occurs when you're running the game on certain versions of Windows. Picpocketing someone might be a go-around for this in some situations, but it obviously doesn't solve the problem. Installing the latest patch does.
