Hi there!

I run into a very annoying bug in the Underdark: when the silver dragon should use the drow illusion spell on me, the game crashes with the notice, there's problem with chvidimage3d.cpp at line number 899. I tried to clean up my temp, tempsave and cache directories, and I tried it without the 3d animation settings: the result was the same, but with another line number. I copied the same areas from the original CD on the hard drive, too, to ensure, it wasn't corrupt.

So my question is: can anything be done with this? Are there any possibilities to turn my party into drow with some CLUA commands and to set the game so, that the silver dragon casted the spell?

I hope you can understand, what I need, if not, please respond, and I try to explain it better.

SetGlobal("PlayerLooksLikeDrow","GLOBAL",1) will set it. Won't fix the paperdolls, but should allow you to proceed with the game.

Thank you, it worked, I'm in the city If I finished and got out, should I change the variable back to 0? And will the dragon accept the eggs this way, that I hadn't spoken with her before?

[Choo Choo]

Yeah, looking at the globals for its return-with-the-eggs dialogue she will accept the eggs even if you didn't speak to her before.

And no, if I remember correctly, the variable changes back to 0 through scripting when you enter the battleground area of the Underdark, right before the exit. At least that is when you change back from Drow form normally.

And I could left the Underdark in the end, not without the same bug. But I found out what caused it: Cernd was in Greater Werewolf form. As I turned him back to normal than everything worked fine. I hope that could help another players in the future too - once again the assertion failure was at the line 899.

Thank you for the information! It'll be good to know, if someone else has the same problem in the future.
