Possible bug with Thief Quest?

[Slater]

So I'm at the part in the Thief quest where I have to steal a jar but whenever I talk to Levir to start the "heist" it loads me into the marketplace zone but I have nothing to do there. I can run around but that's about it, the guards don't move and i can't interact with them, same with the giant door of the temple. Is there a way to fix this?

Also when trying to dive down into the well in the slums it loads me into a black area where i can't move or do anything other than basically reload a previous save, not sure what's causing that bug either...

I'd suggest to verify your files' integrity first. Usually such bugs that don't affect most people (I think it's the first report of this nature in years) mean that your installation is missing some files and the game can't load them when moving to a new area.

In the meantime email us a save and we'll take a look, see if we can replicate the problem.

I've had something similar happen to me in the tower cellar area of Teron, where you find the jellyfish artifact. I spawned into the map, and the conversation that usually immediately happens with one of the squatters didn't happen -- the squatter was thrown down on the map, but didn't initiate conversation with me. I couldn't interact with any object. It was fixed easily by just shutting down and re-starting the game, so it might be an issue with game uptime somehow messing up scene/event/conversation (however you guys call it) scripts.

@Slater, sounds like you're having the same problem with scripts that activate when you enter a map not firing up properly. Re-booting the game should fix it.

@the legendary neuts Thanks for the reply and it was indeed fixed with a simple restart of the game! Guess something just bugged out the game just needed a reboot to fix :)
