    Been playing for a little while now and now I can NO LONGER cast any spells.
    I have done ALL kinds of resting but still can't cast any spells anymore.
    I checked my spell book and there is NOTHING in the memorized side anymore.
    The only thing I have I added to the game was patch 2 and 3. Can anyone help me with this?

    I am still trying to figure out all the menu commands in game, so I might have missed something.

    Do you perhaps have some intelligence or other casting attribute damage? That might be the reason.

    Reclick the spells you want to memeorize, then rest. Maybe added the patches cleared your spells out.

    I believe no the casting or attribute damage, but will check that. I don't even believe I have run up against a caster foe yet.

    As for reclicking the spells and that didn't work..
    the memorized is TOTALLY blank.. no text of any kind in there.
    I believe the spells were working after I did the patches, but not 100% sure.

    Did you try to drag & drop the spells you want to cast from the 'available' list into the 'memorized' list?

    Did you check the manual?

    I can't drag anything onto the right side (memorized area), its totally blank there.
    There isn't even a box there anymore.
    I went back to a older save and I can now cast spells but can't change any, except when I level up and get a new spell, I can change it then.
    I am stuck with the spells I currently have till then.
    That right side is totally blank.

    Just another quick question.... when you cast a familar, aren't you suppose to see a familar near you? I see the monster when I summon one in a fight but no familar.

    When I summoned a familiar for my sorcerer, it stayed in the inventory. It doesn't leave the backpack, and it doesn't fight. It stays with the spellcaster for the purpose of improving skills a little. Mine is a raven, which seems to boost my Sorc's appraise skill. I just summoned it, so I'm not sure what else it does, but the different animals improve different skills.

    As far as your non-spell problem, I noticed that before I installed the patch (official version, 1,2 & 3) I was able to change spells by dragging something from the left side to the right and substituting . This was on a sorcerer. Apparently, this wasn't supposed to happen, and the patch put a stop to that. I can still cast, and get my spells back when I rest, but I have to keep what I chose, and only get new spells when I level. My cleric has spell memorization slots, and his work just fine.
    I just gave my rogue 1 wizard level (God knows why...) and everything seems to be progressing alright with her spells. But other weirdness has descended on my world, in the form of glitches of an altogether different nature.

    Yeah, not other effect but skill/feat modification. The raven's apraisal boost or the toad's +3HPs are the only one really worth it. Druid summon companion (Iassume ranger is same) does give you another fighter/meat shield. Wolf seems best to start, but I had a lot of fun with the chicken.

    I don't know if it has special powers, but mine must of had a bonus to hit and to save. I used him as meat shield to decoy enemies. He never really did more than 2 pt of damage, but he seemed to hit more often than my level 4 Paladin. And he would always save against area effect spells like web. Plus his cackle was entertaining!!

    Animal companions for druid and higher level rangers. One of the choices is chicken.
