Starkiller Wall Thermal Detonator Glitch

[Arcaneshield]

Hi, so I can't continue with this game due to a repeates glitch. When you get to the shield door and use the two grappling guns to turn off the shield, my chewie can't lock down on the door with his thermal detonator to blow it up. So I'm stuck here.

On some of those the positioning is unforgiving.... it's worth moving about a bit to see if the target K shows up. Worth a try before anything more drastic.

Hope this helps :)

I did, but maybe third time's the charm.

I have the same error and have tried in freeppay and story mode using different characters. At no time can I toss the thermal detonator....

I sent the company an email, no response yet.

I emailed WB and they asked for my Direct X logs... After I sent those they responded with the below email...I havent attemped this yet....

That stopping all microsoft services sounds like a really good way to screw up your computer. I reinstalled the game, haven't had a chance to play it but I'll let you know if it did anything.

If you have the Super Detonators red brick activated, try deactivating it. Worked for me, GL!

Had the same problem today, deactivating super detonators helped.

[tbell051]

I tried what they sent and it completely screwed up my system..took me 45 minutes to get through the level to try to destroy the wall and then it failed again!!!!
I reported that and they have now asked for my system info (msinfo).. Ill try the red brick solution next....

[Arcaneshield]

Yeah I warned it would do that.

[tbell051]

The disabling of the red brick worked!!!!!
thanks all!!!

[Arcaneshield]

Hmm... I don't know if I had the red brick on or off. I'll try it again soon.

Deactivating the brick worked for me too, thank you.

Been putting off finishing this game cause I felt like an idiot for not being able to figure out how to get past Starkiller Wall. Never would have thought to disable bricks.

Coincidentally, May the 4th be with you!
