The first level Temple of Eothas spirit at the pools has a buggy dialogue that won't exit.

 

Directions: enter the pool room and let the spirit memory cut scene trigger. Dialogue is stuck and game can only be exited through alt-f4.

I would say i have been playing the game for about 5-6 hours now. Noticed i skipped a lower level dungeon so i decided to come back and do it. Got about 5m into the dungeon and i came across a spirit that appears, It says a few things and then vanishes as usual.

 

The issue i'm having tho, Is when the spirit vanishes the text box will not go away. I cannot click Continue, I have tried loading previous saves and doing it again. This is my first real issue with the game and there's no way around it. Anyone know what might be causing this? Is there a fix for it? Is it a know issue, or is it just me.

Anyone? I am sort of in a spot here, I cant keep playing at this point until this is possibly solved. Its game breaking for me.

Hello wbc889,

 

I created a new game to see if I could reproduce the problem but I was unable to do so. However, loading your save I saw the error. Try verifying your game cache and see if that fixes your issue. In your steam library, right-click Pillars of Eternity > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Cache. 

 

Thank you for your support

This is literally the same thing i just posed about the other day. Same spot, Same NPC. If anyone finds a solution to this issue let me know. i am like 10 hours into the game, i would hate to start over.

Hi Aarik, if I recall the bug happened when my party solved the bells riddle first before clearing that room.

 

When I reloaded the level and cleared the pool room first before I solved the bells riddle, the error did not occur.

Hello Zeaig,

 

I have merge your thread with this one. Could you please upload a save file and an output log via dropbox so I can add it to our bug report? 

 

Thank you 

Here's the stuff you asked for,  I have actually included two save files tho. The auto-save is right when i entered the temple in-case you wanted a little time before the error. and the other save is right before the spirit triggered the speech event. So it should error out moments after loading that save.

I think these are the correct files tho.

Thanks for uploading those files. What build did you guys start your games? Was it 2.0, 2.01, 2.02? 

 

I have entered a bug into you the database and forwarded it to the proper department. 

 

Thanks!
