Anyone ever had their gold disappear? I had over 100,000, maybe close to 200,000, maybe it rolled over back to 0 after reaching 200,000? a bug?

I'm playing solo as a monk, so sell a lot of cool stuff I can't use..
already back up to 100,000 again, but don't know how/when i lost the original amount..

Maybe it was Enron gold and not real gold.
(sorry for the spam, but I couldn't pass it up)

Did you donate any to a temple and add an extra zero to your donation? You haven't bought anything, right?

I've never heard of this bug; I had about half a million gold at one point in ToB, so I don't think it rolls over.

Evil people give to charity; Hitler continued to tithe even after being excommunicated from the Roman Catholic Church.

If you're missing the gold (which it sounds like you're not), I'd CLUAConsole it in, and check with Bioware to see if it's a known problem. Otherwise, I'd just wait around and see if someone else has had this problem.

You didn't sample the magical deck, did you? As I recall, one of its cards will remove all the party's gold.

Have you recently been affected by a wild surge (eg in the third level of Watcher's Keep)? There is one result that causes the destruction of all money on the caster.

Voila!!!

I did only one wild surge from the machine, but KNOW I did not save that...I did the ability raises from the scribbled notes..
but I did play around with the deck and think I saved after the experience gain..I may have lost money from one of the cards and didn't realize it when I was playing for the sword...

Thanks...I think that is what happened...

I'm still in the same shape and not hurting for it playing solo...but I hate unsolved mysteries..

ohhh, I just realized what you meant by Wild Surge... some of the rooms, spells didn't work right? Yes that happened a time or two, it may have happened there...

Thanks for the posts guys..
