Major BUG? duchal palace

Post by Bombadil »

I hope someone can help me out:
Right now, I am in front of the Duchal palace in BG. I've killed Slythe and took the invitation and letter off her body. I also retreived Sarevok's Diary @ the Iron Throne Top floor.
The last thing I did was saving Duke Eltan by taking him to the harbor Master: In short: ready to defend the two other dukes from being killed.
BUT:
every time my party enters the palace, the "entering palace"movie is played a million time's.. it is just "looped"
between the movie's, I can walk 10 feet, so I walked on.. but Sarevok and the dukes aren't there ??? :mad:

/earlier
When I first entered the palace, The problem with the movie didn't occure. But, when I killed the dopplegangers, Sarevok didn't become hostile, and the 2 dukes refused to talk to me. So I thought I forgot the diary..(also a bug??) so I loaded a previous game, and headed for the diary. When I came back @ palace, the problem with the looping movie was born :(

A friend of mine had exactly the same problem. The only thing we'd cheated with, was the lvl50 XP cap remover... I hope someone can attend me to a solve, because this is really annoying.. I just can't finish the game...

It is a known bug. You can disable the movies in your BG.ini file, this will stop this problem and will not affect the plot :)
