Alright, now I am completely frustrated.
The 1/4 load bug is now making me rip my hair out. I've tried everything suggested here, nothing works.
Its been bugging me since I brought the game, but I've been able to 'fix' it by reverting to an earlier save. And by making a new save after every new room.
But now it hangs while loading ALL my recent saves. Unless I want to re-do 2 days worth of playing, I'm buggered. I'm on the Dxun moon, I've done all the forest quests and I was hopefully just about to get off the damned mud ball.
This is the most bug riddled game I've ever played... but I might actually be able to have fun with it if I could continue my damned game.
