Random Trivia

Before I go off to sleep, a little bit of fun trivia for you all. After you enter the game, do the following.

1) Alt+Tab out of the game
2) Right-click and close the game from the taskbar

Hope it brings a smile to you.

Since I have not seen anybody mention it ever since I registered here.

I've already seen this, it is good for a chuckle. I first noticed it when IWD got stuck in a loop one time. I alt-TABbed out and killed the process, then reloaded my last saved game.

(I tried to escape from a movie sequence, and when it returned to the interface everything was greyed out and "paused for movie" was in the info window at the bottom. only happened the one time - wierd)

Also works if you played BG2 windowed. Think the same thing was there in BG1.

Illumina Drathiran'ar · 09-17-2002, 09:48 PM

Yep, it was there in BG1. I remember the first time it happened, and I was like, what in the Nine Hells... cause I hadn't even reached Nashkel yet, so I didn't get it.

Yeah, I did that when I had just started BG1 for the first time. I was like, what a weird game... lol.

Legolas The Magnificent · 09-18-2002, 01:50 AM

are you talking about "you will miss boo!!are you sure you want to quit" after you did it? or is there something *crash* that will happen.

Fiend · 09-18-2002, 04:07 AM

I think Dundee means "Boo will miss you, are you sure you want to quit?"

Legolas The Magnificent · 09-18-2002, 04:35 AM

yeah, that's it i think!

Link · 09-18-2002, 05:17 AM

Yeah, I've noticed that before.. It's good to see that the creators of the game have thought of that too
