darksilence 53 Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 This is a bug I run into often. When reading a book with multiple pages, sometimes the pages become blank, and the book cannot be closed anymore. It looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/kAahZZe. 1 Quote The Dark Mod Database: https://tdmdb.com Link to post Share on other sites
stgatilov 1224 Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 Can you reproduce it reliably? Or at reproduce once in a few runs? Maybe you have a savegame which is already "stuck"? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you have a savegame which is already "stuck"? I cannot reproduce it reliably, I just tried and was unable to do so. I will save the next time I run into the bug though, with the book "stuck", and update this thread. Quote The Dark Mod Database: https://tdmdb.com Link to post Share on other sites
darksilence 53 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) I ran into this issue again, while playing Quinn Co., and saved the game. You can download the .save file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5v2rxcuzh0wk3hl/Quicksave_0.save?dl=0. Just load it and you'll notice the blank pages and the fact that you cannot close the readable.

VanishedOne 546 Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 It sounds like https://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=5256 apart from the problems reproducing it. Quote Some things I'm repeatedly thinking about... - louder scream when you're dying Link to post Share on other sites
stgatilov 1224 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 I'm afraid I need a savegame before the problem happens. The attached savegame demonstrates that the problem can happen, but does not show how the game can get into such bad state. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just giving you what you asked for, 'a savegame which is already "stuck"': If I have additional information in the future I'll post it here. 1 Quote The Dark Mod Database: https://tdmdb.com Link to post Share on other sites
stgatilov 1224 Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Yes, you are right. I guess I thought I would catch something suspicious by looking at it. Well, I will inspect it --- maybe I'll have some clues about how it happens. Thank you! Speaking of savegame before getting stuck, I won't be surprised if the issue is not reproducible Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Speaking of savegame before getting stuck, I won't be surprised if the issue is not reproducible Yeah, hope it helps! And regarding a savegame before getting stuck, as you mentioned, it's likely that it's not reproducible: somehow I think that the bug occurs while reading, and might not be related to the global state of the game, but I could be wrong. It also seems to happen after scrolling the mouse wheel to read a next or previous page, sometimes half-way through a book. I wonder if sometimes the next/previous page action can make a readable go to a non-existent page that then breaks the frob ability due to invalid xdata? But anyways, if I run into this again, hopefully I have a savegame before the problem or more information about this. Thanks!

stgatilov 1224 Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 I think I have just got into the same problem on Volta 1. The readable_percys_note 1) cannot be picked up, and 2) has some empty pages if I hit "next page" key while reading. And I think once I got the empty page which was stuck like reported here. But I cannot reproduce it from quickload Perhaps @kingsal can confirm whether the two points are intended. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm the extra page on that readable is just a bug, but I am able to pick it up and read it. No reports of not being able to be pick readables in this mission, so that's weird.

I could not pick it, and saw a console warning about it. But I could read it just like a typical non-pickable paper. What's the difference between pickable and non-pickable readables?...
