0 BMac Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 We have a fix and it should be in 1.04. The issue doesn't affect the stronghold or any gameplay, it is essentially a display-only issue. It is caused by saving and loading the game. 2
0 Justinian Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 My journal years are all jumbled up. There is no consistency at all... 1

0 eRe4s3r Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 That's all very cute, but how about years going backward in the quest logs even though the quests happened after each other, and the quest with the higher year happened *first* ? 16933 (but day 42) http://imgur.com/EbsstBk 5645 (but day 63) http://imgur.com/37m9cYg I wonder what happens by day 90 ? 1
0 Pzyber Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 I just noticed this issue too. I had one entry that was ok in the journal. Then I did a quicksave and loaded it and every year in the journal got multiplied by 2.
0 Nukenin Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 There seem to be several issues to which the common factor seems to be "loaded a save game". I think Obsidian really needs to audit the code which handles the creation and loading of save games. 1 --/\/
0 Messier-31 Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 same issue is there fix for this.it affects late game heavily. So you are saying that this will mess up the gameplay at some point? Should we wait for a fix? It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air...
0 Nathanel Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 mainliy it effects stronghold time-releated things.
0 Messier-31 Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 I made no progress since yesterday due to lots of errands to run. Also I'm seriously thinking about waiting for a patch, because there seems to be a lot more problems further into the game, as many of you lads pointed out on forums. Anyway, because no progress was made, the year is still over 11.000 AI and I bet my golden pantaloons that if I make a new save-game today, the year will shift even more after load.

0 hayt Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I have this bug as well. I was bummed out because it takes me out of the immersion but to hear it might actually effect gameplay later on really makes me consider putting down the game until this patch comes out. Is this even the sort of thing that can be undone or will my game forever be in the year 10,000? Extremely disappointed if that's the case. Is there any way to edit an ini file or text somewhere wherever the journal is stored so I can fix this myself? I hope the devs can check if days >365 and set all instances in year in the journal to 2823 if it isn't. I'm no expert though.

0 alvin_the_elf Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Anyone knows what is causing this issue so I can avoid it?
0 LordCrash Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Anyone knows what is causing this issue so I can avoid it? No, but since the devs seem to have found the reason you can expect the bug to be fixed soon. Either in this week's update or the next. 1
0 Messier-31 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 Anyone knows what is causing this issue so I can avoid it? Probably this happens while loading a saved game. It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air...
0 hayt Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Any update on whether this has a fix? I know it's not a class A bug but I hope it goes out with the next patch No, but since the devs seem to have found the reason you can expect the bug to be fixed soon. Either in this week's update or the next. Is there a day for the patch? Guess or otherwise?
0 Smorensky Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 This isn't a bug at all!!! It's all those evil good for nothing "animancers" messing with your souls!!! 2 "We must all fear evil men. But there is a kind of evil we must fear most and that is the indifference of good men!"
0 alvin_the_elf Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Does it changes the 'Days passed' number in game, or just the year? If it's just the year, I guess I can keep playing. I used to write fake dates in my own journal as well just for screwing with anyone else trying to read my diary. Maybe my character does the same thing.
0 Nathanel Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 it doesn't change days passed number just journal dates.
