Game crashes whenever I win the first swoop race

Recommended Posts

I've installed TSLRCM 1.8.3 + M4-78EP + "small patch" on the Steam version of KOTOR2 and have just reached the first swoop race on Telos. Whenever I finish either a practice or real race with a winning time, the game will crash with the loading bar almost full just after the swoop race ends.

 

Any idea what the deal is or what I may be able to do about it (other than skipping the swoop racing of course)?

No, I decided not to go that route because it involves downgrading the game .exe version, so I'm using the stock Steam kotor2.exe. Given that nobody else seems to have this problem, though, maybe it will actually help.

Here's my quicksave if anyone is interested. Just talk to the Twi'lek and ask for a practice or real race, and get a winning time.

 

Update: Happens with 2.1.0.0 nocd as well (as opposed to 2.2.0.0 Steam), and I get a bonus bug of being stuck in the air sometimes.

 

I did find something, however: it seems that I was using Atton to start the race instead of hte player character. When I used the PC instead, there was no crash. Could it be that simple? I know it at least makes a difference for the persuasion check to skip the entry fee.

It could be, I never really tried that... should be easy to test (and if indeed the cause, change).

I think I made it pretty clear that I was only trying that out of desperation, and that my main intent is to stick with the stock .exe, so please don't get hung up on that.

I myself, haven't experienced any crashes with the swoop racing and I'm using the default .exe that comes with the Steam version... so I'm not sure what's wrong with your game.

I'm convinced it was a bug resulting from having Atton talk to the race NPC instead of having the player character do it.

 

Mods: May as well lock the thread since I think the problem is solved. Thanks.

Edited my post in accordance with the rules (silly me for not properly reading them in-depth).

Glad you got your problem solved though... or at least you think it is  :D
