Transition Errors

[Silverfish]

I'm getting transition errors while trying to move towards any of the eastern caverns of the Southern Gate community. Also scripted door opening sequences aren't opening either, such as the gambling hall or Blaine's location. Is there a quick fix or some files I need to extract to file a report?

[Silverfish]

So I restarted the game and the scripted door unlocks started working again in both the locations I mentioned. The transition errors persist though so I'll send over my save to Styg. Thanks for the help.

Same error here. Started happening after around 15 hours.

From error files in save directory - always the same error.

Attached the save game. Loading and trying to go to "Commons and Cantina" results in Transition error.

Also Blaine's door wasn't opening (after dialog says "Unlocked") - but does so after restarting the game.

Did you happen to play for several hours at a stretch?

[jagged-jim]

Well yes, but not more than 3-4 hours.

Maybe the problem is with overwriting saves? Or maybe it's some wierd HDD issue. Or it's a unreliable zip library (GZipDecoder?) used to unzip the save.

It could have gotten corrupted if the process ran out of memory during compression. You can apply what epeli told you RPGCodex thread to StationAlpha-Level3 map, that will fix it, though there might be other maps that got corrupted.

RAM issue very well might be responsible. I am playing on win7 32bit - so only 3GB RAM. Seems kind of harsch though. 2GB should probably be enough. I would not fix with priority though - if it's RAM, i will be fine playing on other machine.

It's not the issue of your physical RAM, it's the app running out of its address space, so adding more RAM won't help. It's a complicated issue, so it'll have to wait until we get into the polish/optimize development phase.
