[Spoiler] help. my game crashes in the end(?) sequence (SPOILERS)

Post by Baseballheadboy »

Spoiler
help. my game crashes in the end(?) sequence

I've got this problem. I beat Malak, than I ran out of the room where Carth & Bastila are waiting, they talk a little, than run to the ebon hawk. than a movie starts, than a cut-scene of the republic ship with the admiral and the Yoda-lookalike jedi (forgot name) saying something about the ebon hawk. than another movie begins showing the star forge starting to collapse and than the game always crashing. can you imagine how hard this sucks?

I've tried the following

game is updated

updated the latest patch for my Radeon card (ATI Radeon 9600 128 Pro)

changed resolution to 800 instead of 1024

disabled movies, then Instead of the movie, it goes to a loading screen and it crashes

nothing helped though.

I've had other crashes in the game, but they where solved by restarting the game or updating

Baseballheadboy, welcome to the forum. Please read the sticky thread marked (cleverly enough) PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING. It's by the site owner, who requires people that give away game spoilers to put that fact in their thread titles. I've changed this one. Please take care of it on your own, in future threads. Thanks.

Does someone know the answer to this problem?

Because I have exactly the same problem with exactly the same graphics card, I've also tried everything. Skipping doesn't work.

The only difference is that I'm a light side player,

I appreciate all the spoiler alerts but would be nice if someone could solve this,

just read for hours through the official bioware forums, encounted the same problem several times but no solutions were offered and nobody from bioware said anything about it.

Seems to me this forum is my last hope :-)

I hope someone can help before coming tuesday, If I haven't fixed it by then I'm still within my 2 weeks and I can return it to the store and get a refund.

Frustrating though since I loved the game and I didn't have any other crashes/problems so far (except the ocasional "where should I go?" which this site always gave me the answers)

Please, someone help,

alright!

I fixed it :-)

Baseballheadboy, I hope it works for you as well and if anyone here has an acount on the bioware forums (I'm too lazy to register there as well) (s)he can put it there also.

My character was almost dead, didn't have much health in his health bar left (you could barely see the red line) and still had some stimulants on him. Apparently somewhere in the cutscenes he died because of the simulants thus letting the game crash.

My solution (I had saved just before getting malak on his knees) was to pause and use my inventory screen to get my health to 100%, then the end movie played as it should..

I didn't get the bastile romance end thing I somewhere read about though, but at least I'll be able to go for the dark side version no :-)

Would be nice if you'd let the other people know whether it works now :-)

Though I take you not responding is a good sign :-)

err
I've been busy so I haven't really tried yet
also because beating Malak was a pain in the *** because I don't have many life support packs and such anymore :s
