Aife in Mac Taidg must die quest

[geoffvh]

I am busy with the Mac Taidg must die quest. Aife has just asked me to follow her. I do this, but once she gets to the place where we are supposed to meet the woman nothing happens. No interations options shwo, cannnot click on Aife, nothing, nada. Anybody else experience this?

I've deleted your duplicate thread, since this is the more appropriate place for it. Please send us your savegame to [e-mail]. The savegames are located in the /documents/my games/expeditions viking/savegames/ and we'll need both the ".sav" and the folder with the same name.

Just sent you the mail with the attachments

Hello Geoff, I've loaded up your savegame and it appears to be incredibly broken. Every single thing in the scene is active - including all the battle objects, some of which is blocking Aife from moving.

First off, is this your first playthrough? I see some save data in here from the mountain cave level, which is a much later scene that you should not yet have been able to access at this point in the game - which makes me think perhaps your save has been corrupted by an earlier playthrough. If this is indeed your second or later playthrough, do you remember if you began this one before or after we released version 1.0.7?

It is my second playthrough. First playthirough was over the past two weeks. I only bought and installed the game about two weeks ago.

Hmm... well, it seems like your savegame has been corrupted. Do you have a save from before you entered Perth? If so, you can fix the problem by opening the folder for that savegame and deleting the following files:

LevelDataBritainChester.leveldata
LevelDataBritainDunPhris.leveldata
LevelDataBritainHadriansWall.leveldata
LevelDataBritainMountainCave.leveldata
LevelDataBritainMountainCaveEntrance.leveldata
LevelDataBritainPerth.leveldata
LevelDataBritainPerthKingsHall.leveldata
LevelDataBritainPlains.leveldata
LevelDataBritainRoadsideCamp.leveldata
LevelDataBritainSwamp.leveldata
LevelDataBritainYorkDungeon.leveldata

You may also want to delete the corresponding Map PNG files.

Very sorry this happened to you. We believe we fixed it in 1.0.7 but it's possible the problem occurred for you before the patch was released.

Thanks, I might have a saved one from a while before. Will give it a try and let you know.

Unfortunately did not save as far back as I thought, so all of the saves are corrupted. Have to start again. Wish there was a way to start after the three initial preparation quests.

Sorry to hear that. This bug really has us stumped, especially because we haven't ever been able to reproduce it on our own machines, and nobody can tell us exactly how it came to pass (usually you don't notice something is wrong until well into the game). It's quite frustrating :S

Probably the same bug that resulted in me getting two “Mischief” axes. One I found next to the tower in Orkney in the boxes and then I bought it back from Skeiner. Killed him in my previous game, but paid him to join me in this one.
