Bug while fighting Earth Elementals?

    Have the game - patch installed - Vicks & something other patch installed.

    Almost finished the game - last level of the Temple - doing the nodes. In the Earth labyrinth I met the small earth elementals and that's where my troubles started. 5 out of 8 of my characters cannot do anything during combat - no initiative - not even in the red. They're sitting ducks that can't do anything until combat is resolved.. or they're dead. Anybody has seen this ? Is this a bug or some sort of curse ? I really don't want to start another game just to discover - towards the end - that it's indeed a bug.

    Thanks

    Sounds like a bug, definitely. Let me ask - of the five of your eight party members that can't move, are they your characters? I mean, are the three that can move hired NPCs?

    There's probably some way to get around this by restoring from an earlier savegame. But that's not anything you didn't already know - sorta like advising someone with a computer crash to restart Windows. It works most of the time, even if we don't know why...

    [​IMG] 4 were my PCs and 1 an NPC *shrug* nevermind that the game stoped working altogether. Thinking I might improve things I went and uninstalled the game, then reinstalled it and patched it with 1.1 and the Circle of 8 patch - now it wont launch anymore. Upon double-clicking it just spins and spins and then it ends. I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times - same results. And yes the cdrom CAN read the CD content in WinExplorer - just won't run. So I uninstalled definiately. Next game !
