Entering Beregost causes crash

Post by Deathviper1959 »

Hey guys.

I just did a vanila install of bg/tosc and bg/tob with both patchs.

then I installed bgt Ascension64-BGT-WeiDU-1.15

then aurora-v5, bg2_tweaks-v9, DungeonBeGoneV16, BG2_lvl50

everything was working fine, I have most of the begining maps open, but when I try to enter beregost the whole game crashes and comes up with end process button.

I have a backup of both Bg1 & b2 folders unpatched to go back to if just delete the curent folders.

I am hoping this is a known issue and that there is a fix rather than starting over from scratch.

any help please. thank you.

Yes, it's a known bug. Go [url='http://www.shsforums.net/topic/24121-release-beregost-crash-fixer/']here[/url].
The problem is that the people with the most ridiculous ideas are always the people who are most certain of them.

I installed this one from the list of available jdk-7u7-windows-x64 but it did not fix the crashing trying to enter Brergost.

I have a Samsung laptop core i7 with ATI graphics running Win 7 home premium.

jdk-7u7-windows-x64 isnt the fixer itself (jre is better), its the program which allows the fixer to run, which would be BeregostCrashFixer.jar. I would have thought this bug was fixed with bgt-1.15 already. Is this a fresh started game?

I uninstalled the above Java and installed this one in its place jre-7u7-windows-x64 once done I ran the BeregostCrashFixer.jar then pointed it to my current baldur.sav. it ran the process but did not find any errors.

I tried to enter Beregost again and it crashed same as before. did I do something wrong?

yes its a fresh game.

while not being able to get into Beregost is not a game breaker, it is a loss of some xp and free items, such as a +1 ring of protection, a bastard sword in a chest in the smithy, the items got from doing Gareks little quest. the cloak of algernon. and revenge for Branwen plus other minor items. its also a mid world map place to sell items.
