Only solution i find is when i went through old forums you need to go ahead before this caravan complete their conversation for moral point. I tried and went through but didn't find any other fix for this. This bug is fixed in redux version but not on this one sadly.

Happened me too at the very end of Bandits when i finally open the gatedoor.

Solution which worked for me was changing r_api to 1 in user.cfg and made the file readonly.

C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\4A Games\Metro LL\xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\user.cfg

2=DX12
1=DX11
0=DX9

Did you set to 1? Also did you reload whole chapter Bandits instead of using savegame? Also set ingame SSAA to auto?

Also someone else wrote anoiher solution, immediality run away from the caravan and keep running so you wont hear the conversation (and miss a moral point) but then you can do what you need to do and eventually return back to Regina and play further.

If all above doesnt work, then the latest suggestion is to unlock all chapters and start the next chapter and leave bandits for what it is.

Then i have 1 last solution. Download a completed savegame and copy over to your savegames location the missing chapters since you didnt unlock them. When start game you will see all chapters are unlocked now. Play the chapter after Bandits. This way it was a solution for another user.

I dont think they did expect so many problems because the latest time they looked at the code there wasnt the hardware available like now. They need to invent time to solve this but why? The game is EOL and also was free.

Even the newest Dead Space and Callisto Protocol is causing stutter with new pcbuilds and they still arent fixed.

However, i have 62/70 achievements. And also have a bit old PC i7 6700K + 1070GTX which suits the game.

sadly i tried r_api 0 to 2 nothing works, even reload the chapter few times, put SSAA to auto. in the end it still freezes in caravan areas. only thing works to run away before they complete the conversation.

Sad to hear. But if you run away, and doesnt hear the conversation, you still can play further, right? Even get back for Regina (your ride)?

If this is not the case, then use my latest suggestion so you can move over to next chapter to play further.
