When I try to load any of my regular saved games the game loads up just fine BUT I always find myself without my other party members with me (so I need to go back to the ebon hawk each time), also I lose all of my unnequiped inventory items, ALL OF THEM (unused crystals, weapons, medpacs, etc.. everything).

 

Did anyone else run into this bug ? Is there any solution ?

 

Obsidian please correct this sort of bug really fast as it completely breaks the game, for example I just lost my special crystal from the dantooine cavern because it was unused (did not have time to get to the ebon hawk to put it in my lightsaber).

I just made some more tests and it seems the inventory and party loss bug only happens when you load a regular save (menu --> savegame), not with quicksaves

Send a mail to Lucas Arts documenting what you've found. This is 'self-help', while some of the dev's do read these forums. Their hands ARE tied until they get a go-ahead from LA to make the patch.
