Why can't I save or rest?

Post by orion »

This is my second time through the game and I can't save or rest my party. I'm a Sorcerer and I've blown my spell wad. I need rest. I'm playing core rules. It's only day two. I rested once in the first dungeon to juice up my spells. Am I trying to rest too often? Can't save either. And no I'm not trying to save during combat. What gives?

I have this sometimes in the Temple district, try changing the sector, or reloading...

its a fighting-bug. Before i beat irenicus (first time), I casted time-stop when he died. (i missed the whole movie, cause time was "frozen").

anyway, all through hell I couldnt save nor rest. i figured it was normal. But then it autosaved, i died vs irenicus and after i loaded i could sleep again.

so just a bug. you need to autosave it one way and then reload

Are any combat spells you cast stil in operation? I know the game refuses to let my party rest if a cloudkill I cast is still operative. Another time, it seemed to get a combat variable stuck. The combat music continued playing though I'd long since left combat, and I couldn't rest at an inn. I moved into a new loading area, then back again, and everything was fine.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

I got you all beat on this one. I was doing the planar sphere mission and I summoned a fire elemental in that place where you get the demon heart using Jaheira. I let the fire elemental live because I had the heart and why kill him. So I left went back to Amn and I couldn't save or rest. I thought maybe if I waist some time it will let me save again so I left and went to Umar Hills. Fire Elemental never went away and I was stuck =(. Had to restart Planer Sphere.
