Infinite Loading Loop... *CHAPTER TWO SPOILER*
   

I'm in the Valley of Mines, having just gotten the letter for Lord Hagen, but everytime I try to leave (either through the pass or the mine) the loading-indicator goes up to about 90%... and freezes. Gothic continues to run, still using 90-100% of my available CPU-power, and the red light that indicated harddisk activity on my computer is still flashing.

But nothing happens

Is there any way to fix this, or use a cheat-code to teleport to the other side of those baneful loading zones

Oh, and I have tried waiting for 10 minutes, before rebooting (Gothic used so much CPU power that I couldn't get Windows to minimize it), and I've also re-installed... that didn't help

Please help me, I'd HATE to have to start all over

I found out that a file in my save directory is corrupt... namely newworld.sav (or whatever the extension is...)

I have tried replacing it with another newworld.sav, that I got by starting a new game and then saving, and taking the file... but that result in a lot of errors including dialogues with no [END] option (encountered at Lord Andres) and the inability to sleep (I can lie down alright, but no sleep dialogue )

Does anyone know if it is possible to fix the file?

Help in this would REALLY be appreciated

To fix the missing object dialogs:
- B, "marvin", B
- F2, "hero export bug", ENTER, "hero import bug", ENTER, F2
- B, "42", B

Do you have an more recent version of the NewWorld.sav in any other savegame?
Please delete the content (not the folder) of [G2]\Saves\current\ and try loading again.

No, unfortunately I dont have a newer newworld.sav... guess that I once again learned the folly of only using one save slot

Well, if that trick there can fix my dialogue errors, I dont think that there's any left (beds function through dialogue AFAIK).

Well, there is one more thing, but I don't know if its a bug...

When I have replaced the bogus newworld.sav with a older, but functional one, and go back to Khorinis, I get to Chapter Three. Now, when I try to pray at a roadside shrine, I'll get fancy effects on-screen (red tinge) like when I'm talking to those seekers... is that strange effect meant to come and not go away (ran around with it for half an hour ) ?

Thanks for the help by the way
