Just got to Spirit Soaring and Cadderly goes to the summoning chamber on second floor. Then everyone sits around waiting, the scene just hangs (no sidebars, can't control characters, etc.). I can alt-esc out of game, but scene won't continue.

Also I've been having a strange problem where the game will just freeze. It's happened in various areas and for seemingly no reason. Sometimes I've opened a chest, or am just walking, or an enemy casts a spell, etc. The game just stops. Not a CTD but a freeze like I'm looking at a screenshot. Nothing works, and I have to reboot computer and it runs scan-disc everytime. It is almost certain to happen at least once a day, usually after a few hours of playing.

I'm not sure if it is hardware/computer related but it only happens when playing BG2 (with BP and mods). Pretty sure it didn't happen on my last install. Has anyone else had this random lock up? I read in another post of someone having strange/random/inexplicable crashes with ROT but it was a while ago.

Well I looked at it in NearInfinity but can't seem to cut and paste the contents into post. The area is RR3701, and I looked at the script RR3701.bcs but don't know what to delete without messing up game. Can it be safely removed?

Well for now I just skipped that part, but it's part of the main quest so I'll probably clua back later if there is a fix. Maybe King Diamond or Erebusant could take a look at script or clua to Brynlaw and check it out?

Spoiler:















Brother Martin in Brynlaw AR1600, x707/y767 will bring you to Spirit Soaring. Go inside and talk to Cad, rest a day and come back. After he has his speech he'll transport party to basement where the scene just hangs. I think Cad is supposed to summon an imp or something...

P.S. I can see the script in NI, but when I post it here it shows up as numbers instead of "start cutscene blah, blah, then set global blah, blah, if/then blah. Hopefully someone has it installed and can double check it. I see it sets some globals so I guess deleting it is not a good idea.

maximus2001, go to your profile and check the settings for editing posts. Might be an issue there.

I just got to Cadderly so I haven't experienced the hanging scene - yet. I will look thru the connected scripts to see if anything looks funky. Other people have gotten thru this part, so I wonder what their secret was.

Just took a quick look at some of the variables. Gilgamesh loved to *not* increment his globals one-by-one. Oh well...

Oh nooo, not another dr....! What is with G and his "dr.... fetish"?! Thankfully this is Chapter 5; got suckered into a d-fight in Chapter 2. NOT funny!

Hi, I am having the same problem. Everybody just seems to stand there and do nothing. I let the scene stand for over an hour real time and still the same thing. Hopefully someone can find the answer for us and let us know.

Oops sorry, that was fixed a while ago. Begins - here.
