Bug Collecting Thread

[Dr. Permixtus]

I was thinking, maybe it would be easier for the devs if there is a thread where People can write down the Bugs they discover, so PB has an easier time finding the bugs and doesn't need to go through 600 different Threads. Maybe someone could even pin this?

Anyway, worth a try, put your found Bugs in here, maybe even solutions if known. I will try to update this Thread with what people post.

No Signal on my monitor every now and then when playing the game... It works for 30 seconds then no signal. Few seconds more and no signal again. Doesn't happen with any other games. Have a GTX 1080TI, and a I7 6800k so it shouldn't be my hardware thats causing the issue.

Try restarting your computer. It seemed to have worked for me. Played for 3 hours now without the screen issues.

[PiX.lR]

strangely wiggling booby's when talking to characters (female ofc, seems hilarious do), audio buggs (audio suddenly stops and starts playing for example near water an the shrine (bezerkers), random black screen and auto tabb-out when picking up mana at the bezerkers in the hotel), Would love to have a minimap of some sorts (not nessesary)
(Also using the RX570 graphics card, amd FX 8350 16gig ram win7 64 bit all latest drivers updated (yesturday no issues with black screen and game running in background)

[TerraGelida]

Level 2/3 freeze bug
How to reproduce:
1. When leveling up game stops and you get message to open your adjutor using bound key.
2. When no key is bound for that action (in settings menu) then there is no way to get rid of this message.

Solution:
1. Bind all keys ;)

Apparently when you get a tutorial message and have no key bound for that particular action you can't dismiss this popup message.

When crash every 3 min that I think help. It help me no crash 1h play.
Had the same problem, i did the following steps and now its stable (cant pinpoint which step did it but i think the directX part):
Install DirectX (2010, June) runtime package http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=3b170b25-abab-4bc3-ae91-50ceb6d8fa8d and then
Run DirectX Web Installer http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35
Updated Graphic Card Driver
Added Elex to AMD Game Settings, in the Settings reset everything to default (You can also do that with the global settings)

If you choose a dialogoption thats not available because your abillity is to low and choose another one right after that while it displays the impossibility to use the other option, it may goes into a delay of some seconds before the dialoge continues (after the popup fades the dialog continues without issues)

[[Juicy] Steak]

Characters walking / spawing (?) in NPCs you speak to / are in a dialogue at the moment.

Swords / Bows sticking through body(parts)

if you use a ladder and some NPCs uses it too you "climb" through each other. Ofc its a solution but still its really destroying realistic game experience.

if you enter an aera that is poisened the green poison smoke may pop up when entering or leaving the area

[Bulanskovich]

Sounds when climbing stairs, a bit too loud and sometimes don't match the material. Same with some other surfaces, like clothes lying around.

[Dr. Permixtus]

I've updated the startpost to include all the Bugs now!

[DwarfVader]

When ülaying with controller the map is bugged.
Sometimes you cant move the cursor over the map at all because it seems to center somewhere.
Other times you just can´t scroll to the edge.
Zooming in and out is buggy sometimes too.

Afaik issues only occur when playing with gamepad. (360 controller).

[Power_Bert]

I personally find it odd that vendors get new goods as soon as you speak to them. Probably a bug.
Despite buying all the arrows a merchant has available, he will have new arrows in stock as soon as i talk to him.
