Ice Wall - Bug?

Post by Tyrael »

Hi!
While exploring the ice wall area I have encountered some problem: my party cannot open the door that leads to the Remoraz queen (although I have the symbol of Auril and all other doors can be opened). Thus, I am kind of stuck in this area. Can somebody help me and give some advise, if this is a known bug and patching would help. Thanks

I don't think it's neccessary to proceed, but did you kill the Crystal Golem? In general: serch behind every door!

Are you sure you mean the Queen Rhemoraz? The one marked with "5" on the map of the walkthrough? B/c if you mean the one that's keeping Zack captive, you can approach it only from the other way around.

Yes, I killed the crystal golem and yes, I mean passage "5" leading to the Queen and not the door, behind which Zack is whining.

Not necessary to proceed? What does that mean?

I mean killing the Golem is not a requirement to open that door (as far as I know). No help in the walkthrough?

I think I'd try to reaload a previous saved game and see what happens, first of all.

I have done so - loaded a previous game - but the entry into the "5" area is still blocked. Moreover, the Alt-key does highlight all other doors, but not the one leading to the 5-passage. Perhaps I have to restart from the crash site...

Wow.

I have never heard of this bug, but have a look at weidu.org - you can find several mods there along with their descriptions, maybe one of them mentions this problem.

If not, save your game wherever you are now and try re-installing the game.

Or, get a saved game from someone else and load it with your characters! I can try to find one if you're interested, but I'll be able to send it to you only in the evening.

Yes i know that some of you might think that using chaets is not an option. BUT in this case would it be just easier to use one? You would only need to teleprt your party to the other side of the door. Then you should be able to continue playing.

How can you say no to this face? :D

But seriusly.. Party without Bard is not party...

I can understand that SYM forum.. mentally 6 year old people is just running around with scissors on their hand.

Not sure if it's a requirement or not, but did you pick up the two notes back at the beginning of the area? One of them talks about the queen R. I wouldn't think you would need it to open the door, but just curious.

I have managed to overcome this bug by reloading a save game in Targos and starting over with the crash site...

That same thing happened to me too. Thank god I had saved just before and when I reloaded I got the door open. The thing was that there was a common door there and when I tried to open it the door disappeared and there was like a wall there with nothing to open and the door was closed. Weird bug. Is my game overly bugged because I had problems with Nickademus too.. I have the newest patch and ease of use bugfixes on.. so I don't know what is the problem. I hope I won't run into any other problems on the way.
