Buildings etc not appearing
This bug is starting to get very frustrating for me. I'm constantly having to save-exit-load to get buildings and other objects to appear when I move into new areas.

Are there any tips, tricks, settings or whatnot I can use to try and mitigate this problem? Using Win8.1 x64 with 16g ram, so I don't think it's a memory issue.

disappeared buildings (includes storyline spoilers)
I'm not sure if this is a save/load one as I'm not certain whether I've save/loaded between the buildings being there and the buildings not but I don't think I have.

Specifically the Benneton Farmhouse and nearby residence have disappeared since the time of the fire and returning to it after I visited the Estate and spoke with the Guildmaster and Quartermaster.

There is empty land in both cases.

The tree with a hole at its roots is there, I'm assuming that's where the 'stash behind the house' is but I don't seem to be able to affect it at all.

This particular game is a couple of updates old at this point (although I'm pretty sure there has been no update on that time frame) so I'm going to restart and see if it turns up again next time I get to this point (which will be sooner, now that I know where the painting is)

These ones returned with a save and reloading after latest update.

Although I should probably restart anyway or I'll end up with artefact bugs from having old save :)

Guild University DISAPPEAREDED!!
What the title says. I returned to the Guild University immediately after the scene at the Benneton Farmhouse and discovered that nothing remained of the once-great institution of higher learning except for the walls and an empty field. Actually, one thing that did remain were the little crystals that I suppose powered the lamplights -- hovering in the air. And there's really nothing there; I can frolic around in my new walled meadow without bumping into invisible buildings or people. :)

Thanks for the log. This should be fixed in the next build.

Castle or town vanished + map wonky
Was exploring heavily earlier. Went back in game couple minutes ago ready to explore some kind of castle or town out in the sticks.


Saw couple NPC guards and the front of it for a second then it vanished.

And the map thinks I'm out in the ocean.

Glitch after finding hidden items in your backyard.
After you find the stash, you go back to the guild/school and EVERYONE is gone and all of the objects/items are gone. The floor in the classroom is gone and if you fall you are stuck forever.

I have the same problem with that. Very frustrating indeed.

It's not a memory issue. This is a bug in my streaming system. It's one of those things where it's working 99% of the time - stuff is streaming in/out of the game all around you - but then 1% of the time it barfs and it's a highly visible disaster like an entire city not showing up.

Anyway, you shouldn't have to put up with it. I'm working on it. If any brainy programmers out there care to help me spot bugs the bulk of the system is in WIBaseScripts.[github.com]

That is good to know. I was hoping it was not my machine cause I have everything set as low as possible so I can play it.

Alrighty. And I do want to say it's the bug I'm frustrated with, not you. I know you're pouring your heart and soul into making this game.

I just wasn't sure if there was something I could do in the meantime to maybe have the bug occur less often.

No buildings except my home and the university are showing up for me. I restarted my game twice with the same result :( Could this be a result of the last update??? Well i'm not upset i understand this is EA but would love to move forward in the 1st quest....TY

Usually I just save outside the missing building(s), exit the game, start the game back up and load that save and the buildings will appear. It's been a little tedious but it has allowed me to progress the game.

OK I will give that a try thank you

I understand. We can keep the two things separate. What I don't want is people feeling like they can't complain because they know I'm working hard. That just hurts the game in the long run. For everyone's benefit, if something's frustrating then complain loudly!

Buildings are showing up for me that time but interior is completley missing, even when exiting and reloading the game
