Hey guys, where did you pre-order from? Feel free to contact me over at support@obsidian.net, include your username here on the forums, and where you pre-ordered from and we can get you set up. Thanks!

Hey folks, if any of you haven't yet gotten your Captain's Footlocker pre-order bonus (only for folks who pre-ordered ), hit us up again at support@obsidian.net and let us know what retailer you got the game at. Thanks!

Hey guys, Neo, it looks like you've been helped in support, but Dirty, I couldn't find an e-mail from you (at least based on your username and account e-mail address). If you haven't gotten your pre-order bonus yet, hit me up at support@obsidian.net again and we'll get you taken care of. Thanks!

Hi guys, it's true - Eric no longer works at Obsidian, and it was completely amicable. He just had a baby and is going to be home with family. It's possible he may do some more writing in the future though, you never know. We wish him nothing but the best of luck. I personally enjoyed working with Eric over the years and wish him and his family nothing but the best! Darren

I blame... hmmm. Yes, Badler's tests! The tag image should be fixed. Whooo!

Hi everyone! We're pushing out a new build this evening for you! Please note, if you're playing the iOS version, it may take a few hours before you receive a message from TestFlight letting you know a new build is available. Generally, when we post new builds, Android versions become available quickly and iOS builds require some processing on Apple's side before they become available, which usually takes several hours. Thank you to all of you who have been posting your feedback here - we're sincerely appreciate it and the team has been discussing lots of different points that have been bro

Thank's, all! I've corrected the aberration and feel properly shamed!

We're happy to help, and I feel we have made multiple attempts to help you over the past few months. We have not had another report of this from any other customers (regarding the exact conditions you're seeing with save loop issues), and we've had multiple programmers try to figure out what's going on. We're happy to continue to help if you remain civil. These guys are genuinely trying to help you.

Hi Manulla, I'm going to try and get one of those ASAP, but if I may ask, do you happen to have Wasteland 2 and/or Shadowrun? Curious if they run OK or if you run into issues with them. Either way, we'll get our hands on one and try it out and see if we can see what's up. Thanks, Darren

With the 1.05 patch on Steam, we've received a few reports from people saying they are receiving the following error: Data folder not found: There should be 'PillarsOfEternity_Data' folder next to the executable To fix this: Open Steam and click on the Library tab. Find Pillars of Eternity in your games list along the left, right-click it, and choose Properties. Click the Local Files tab and click the Browse Local Files... button. You should see a "EmptySteamDepot" folder. Right-click it, and choose Rename. Rename the folder to "PillarsOfEternity_Dat

Apologies for the delay in getting back to this thread! Some questions: 1) When you start your game, are the Continue and Load buttons available to click, or are they disabled? 2) If you click Accept on the New Game Settings window, do you then see the animation that says "Obsidian Entertainment Presents" and the camera moves to a hole in the ceiling? 3) If so, do you then see a loading screen follow that, or does it immediately pop up the Load Game screen saying there are no saves to load? A couple things you can try: 1) I would highly recommend updating to 1.04 thr

Hi Andrea, yep! I updated the patch notes above. A number of icons were added and updated.

Yeah, we learned today from the folks at GOG that their Linux patches are full downloads of the game, unfortunately. 1.04.540 is up there, and as mentioned by El Zoido, it's listed as 1.2.0.3 (which is their version number for the file).

This is a big one. Patch 1.05 features hundreds of bug fixes, balance changes, and new UI features. There are many minor fixes that are not listed in these notes. Please Note: Save games in 1.05 are not compatible with 1.04 or earlier versions. The game will automatically back up your save games in a special folder in the save game directory after converting the saves to the new format. New Features You can now rename save games. You can now change the portrait and sound set of characters from the character sheet. Click on the gear icon to open the c

Thanks everyone, I've passed these along to get fixed up in an upcoming patch (hopefully 1.05). I'm a stickler for grammar and spelling bugs myself, so I'd like to see them fixed too.

I can confirm this bug and it's considered a very high priority fix for 1.05. 1.05 won't be available until next week sometime however, but we'll keep you posted!

As always, thank you Baladas for compiling this! I can confirm all of these are in our bug database. For #3, we're having trouble reproducing, but our QA folks are reaching out to people to see if we can find out what's going on there. #4 and #5 are currently marked fixed internally for 1.05. We won't have a beta until early next week unfortunately because of some missing staff this week, but the team is working on open issues!

It's the same as Windows 7 using bcdedit: 1) Right-click Command Prompt in the Accessories group in your Start Menu. Click Run as Administrator. 2) At the command prompt, enter "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072" 3) Restart the computer. To disable this later, replace step 2 with: bcedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa ...and reboot your computer.

Hi guys, I've forwarded this along both to our IT department to make sure we have one of those monitors and also to QA to make sure it gets tested and tracked. No ETA on a fix yet, but thought at least a confirmation of the issue would be helpful.

Update by Brandon Adler, Patch Wrangler Hey, everyone. The Pillars of Eternity team is still hard at work in stomping out bugs, balancing gameplay, and adding in some additional polish where needed. Patch 1.04, our latest patch that dropped earlier today, has a good amount of these fixes. You can find the patch notes at the end of this update. For patch 1.05, which we are targeting for a May release, will continue adding these fixes along with some additional new features. For example, we are adding in the ability to change your player's portrait and voice set any time during the game a

Hi PF, please check your account again too. It should now be available. Cheers, Darren

Done, thanks!

Hi Flow, yep, we're testing installable versions of this shortly to send off for duplication.

Hi Scott, please check your account again - it should be available now. Thanks! Darren

It depends on the tier that a backer selected. For the $65 tier for example, it comes with a physical version of the game, and part of its tier on Kickstarter was to also come with a digital copy. Since we delayed delivery of the final discs, we gave all physical folks an extra Hero key so they could play on release. A number of people had already decided to give their extra key to a friend when they backed the game, so we wanted to make sure they themselves could play too on launch. If for some reason you don't see an extra key on your account and think you should, please contact us at su
