Fighting scrren bug?

gozpel · Post by **gozpel** » Thu Jun 07, 2001 4:29 am

Now and again when I fight, the screen just jumps to the north-west corner of the whole map...I survive this trick by pausing and click on map and go back....but it's very annoying when it happens 3-4 times in a row in the same fight.

Any one seen this before?

It seems to happen more frequently when it is "big" fights...and if it was posted before, I beg for forgiveness...I haven't reached that far in the archive just yet

This has happened many many times to myself, mainly when a critical hit screen shake occurs.

Yeah,this sometimes happens to me too.I think that when you score a critical hit and the screen shakes a bug causes your game screen to 'fly around' instead of just shaking,so you loose focus.Try starting BgConfig.exe and turning off the "Critical Screen Shake" on the Gameplay tab.

Ok thanks for the advise, however I do enjoy that shake. Especially when I score a citical hit against a Red dragon.

It seems like I'm a joyable char to hire. Every statement I make on this board, seems to be ridiculed aND still..."I do not know a soul onb here" !!!

ok ReignsOfPower: I believe aVENGER2k has a lot of knowledge in the game...

but me doing: BgConfig.exe and turning off the "Critical Screen ....it hurts

Do I have to?....or will it get worse?

Seen it alot.
Just a tip. Hit spacebar (pause) and dobleclick on one of the portraits, and u will return to scene very quickly.

Heh,tnx

but the true gurus are people like Kevin Dorner,Manveru and KensaiRyu who help us all,by actually fixing these annoying bugz Bioware overlooked.

...fix it, oh knowlegeble one I hate my screen go away in the first place!

I think that this one and many other bugs will be fixed when ToB finally comes out.

This happened to me in both BGI and BGII. I am not sure if it has anything to do with critical hit but it could be a contributing factor.

The reason I say this is because it did not always happen in battle. If I had my game paused then hit space to unpause it would jump to the corner of the map so I would have to pause again until I found my party. Invariably this was during battle as this is when I use pause the most, and it happened more in dungeons than it did outside (come to think of it I don't recall it happening outside).

Anyhow, I believe (certainly from my own experience) that it is related to pauses as opposed to critical hits. When I get a critical hit, the screen shakes but has never thrown me out.....
