Quest: The Hermit of Hadret: Game freezes after assasination of aevar

[Frrritz]

Hey Guys,

 

I'm playing 1.05 on a mac, german version. The game crashes after the assassination of aevar scene. It fails to go back in normal playing mode just saying "game paused" (see attached picture). I had that one before in another quest after an animated scene - don't remember which - but managed to get it going by reloading. This does not work with the assassination of aevar scene though.

 

Please help since I can't go on with the storyline.

Since I can't find the save games or log file (yes, I've read the post about where to find them) I guess that's it for me. I bought the game on macgamestore. For what it's worth here are my system specs (I know, its old but it worked well with PoE until now):

I found my saved games at last! The library folder was invisible. Don't know why. I will make a new post with the save game and log file.

I merged your topics, Frrritz, but please give more time for responses.  I understand the frustration, but you simply have to give this time.  I did a quick search for your issue and was surprised to see you already had a thread out there.  Don't take a lack of response as people ignoring you.  Folks just don't have an answer.  I'm going to do another search with your topics merged and hopefully I can find something.  In the meantime, please don't bump your thread.  You can also contact support directly.  Support@obsidian.net

 

EDIT:  Here's a link to someone with the same problem.  I see there's a developer response in there, so maybe you can find some good information rather than speculation about the issue.  http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/79672-105-main-quest-bugged-at-end-of-act-ii/?p=1693699

Ok, thanks! Seems like they are working on it.

This issue is caused by the "Auto-Pause: Spell Cast" option in the auto-pause menu. A workaround until we resolve this issue is to click away from the game window and then back which will unpause the game, or simply turn off that auto-pause option before going into the cutscene. I hope that helps!
