Same thing Happens to me whenever I try to leave Raedric's hold after killing the king, Screen goes dark then Crashes.

Attempting to use the "To Siege Platform" door crashes my game. Even worse, when I tried to try it again after verifying Steam files when I Ctrl + Alt + Deleted the program it deleted all 3 of my save slots (Ctrl + Alt + Delete worked the first time without issue). 

So I saved before trying the "To Siege Platform" door again and quit out of the program completely before attempting it again. When I relaunched the program there's no saves to load. Unsure what exactly is causing the issue, but I hope it gets addressed soon.

My game crashes when I tried to enter the main floor. A work around was to bypass the main floor and exit through the dungeon sewers. You can enter the dungeons from the sanctuary using the stairs to the far east end.

Same issue here. Using Steam version with Windows 8.1. Everything went smoothly until this point. Cannot re-enter the Raedrics Hold keep part.

Did someone find any fix of some sort ?

 

And this, folks, is why you never play Ironman on your first game.

 

Not helpful. Also, this isn't an issue with ironman, all three of my saves do this.

 

 

Yeah but at least you can decide to avoid the place until fixed if you have a backup save somewhere.

Same boat, no exits working.

Same here, just when i was thinking "not too much bug finaly" he.

A temporary fix: open your save file and delete the roderic keep AR files, it will reset the areas, the game works ok if you talk to roderic. 

I can't seem to take the rusted cell key out of my stash. Has anyone else here experienced this problem?

Am pretty sure quest items don't leave the stash. They although are automatically stored in it when you get 'em.

I too am having same issues and it would appear my output log is looking much the same as everyone else's - damned annoying

Where is the save game file i can't seem to locate mine 

So after taking care of the main part of Raedric's Hold, I was exploring for extra loot and took an entrance down to the "dungeon laboratory". One room, no way out because the secret entrance is opened from the other side. So I turned around and went back up the stairs--and crash, black screen, etc. Every time. I can't leave the room without it crashing, and my last save is *directly* before the big fight.

****.

After 1 hours running around in the castle, i managed to get outside without the game crashing ! I just get caugh stealing and after some killing the game didn't crash when i tried to step outside.

 

Go try it, good luck.

I am having the same problem.

Note: Cheats will be disabled when you load/reload a save.

 

 

Temporary Fix:

 

Open Pillars of Eternity

Hit ~ Key to open console

Type "iroll20s" to enable cheats

 

The two commands you can copy/paste are:

 

AreaTransition AR_0707_Raedrics_Hold_Ext North1

AreaTransition AR_0708_Raedrics_Hold_Int_01 North1

 

The first command gets you outside of the keep.  I suggest doing this first and hard saving.  This will allow you to have a clear file outside.  (My issue was I only had a save two hours prior and the bugged autosave in the Seige area).

 

The second command is the front door of the keep.  There will be a lot of enemies, but it leads to Raedric which thus allows you to complete the quest.

 

I sided against Raedric and killed him.  Upon killing him I was able to use the front door, however I am unable to zone into any other area.  Just take the quest complete and boogie.

I'm having a very similar issue, but for me I can't return to the chapel level, using any entrance.  Other areas of the keep seem to load ok, but when I try to transit back to the chapel the load screen appears, then a black screen with cursor and the game never comes unstuck.

Wait, I am an idiot. I was trying to use the key on the wrong door. Hahahahah.

Same problem here. Managed to do the castle itself without problem, but left because party wasn't strong enough. Now i can't return without the game crashing.

How do you attach something in this forum, i can't really find the option.

Well done that man.

 

I have used the first one to skip out of the castle and will come back to it when it's fixed.

Given the fact it's a common issue, I think I'll wait for a bug fix. Meanwhile, I'll read all those fancy books I've stashed. Muh lore~ <3

I also got this crash. This is my log file. I think similar
