Solution to the "module/map transition" bug!


Recommended Posts

I call this bug the "back to menu" or "module/map transition" bug. There may be more situtations where this solution might do the trick so try it!

I found the solution to this problem after the game skipped to main menu after many hours of playing(when trying to leave the EH). This bug drove me nuts so i decided to find a way to get around it!

 

 

!Caution!

Before attempting this fix, make a backup of your savefiles in a safe place!

 

If that is ok with u..proceed! :)

 

Here is what u have to do to resolve this problem:

 

1. Start the game and load your favourite saved game (note the save number).

2. Press Alt+Tab to switch to desktop

3. Find the "gameinprogress" and "currentgame" folders.

4. Remove the .sav files that are the source of your headache, i.e. the .sav that has a name similar to the module(map) that fails to load. For example if you cant get to Dantooine u should look for xxxDAN.sav and remove it.

5. Now also remove the files "savenfo.res" & "SAVEGAME.sav" from the folder that contains the savegame you're currently running.

6. Press Alt+Tab to go back in game.

7. Go to save menu and save this game on the savegame now called "Old Save Game"

with the designation 0.

8. Once the game is saved u choose to exit, quiting the game.

9. Start it up again and load the "Old save Game" save.

10. Good luck and have fun!

 

This is an "AS IS" guide, dunno if it will really help u but it has helped me and

others!

Any feedback on however it worked (and what type of issue it solved) is greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers!
