I apologize if this has been covered before.
I've started encountering this odd bug since chapter 4 (now on chapter 5). When in the newworld areas and trying to manipulate an object that would bring up a dialogue (bed, alchemist's bench, anvil etc etc), the character goes into the animation for that object, but the dialogue never appears. I've checked and I certainly have all the items necessary to use these things (smith's hammer, hot metal, lab flasks), but even if I didn't, that wouldn't explain why it wouldn't let me use the beds.
Anyone else experienced this? |

I never had any problems with the beds. The things like sawing wood, picking ore with a pickaxe, or sweeping aren't supposed to display any kind of results. Once or twice though, when trying to approach an alchemist's bench to make potions, or even a book stand to read a book, I've gotten stuck and had to force-quit (Ctrl+Delete) out. It rarely happened, so it was easily overlooked. If your experiencing this problem while attempting to sleep in a bed, then I would agree you've got some kind of problem happening there. Unfortunately, I have no idea how one would go about solving that problem. I'm sure others will respond with more suggestions...
You could also try posting or E-mailing support on the official site...

It's certainly a bug. The things I'm trying to do should definitely be popping up a selection box (sleeping for example, and no, I'm not possesed). Everytime I want to forge, sleep or make a potion now I have to travel to oldworld. Most annoying. I've made a post on the JoWood forums and emailed them, hopefully the bug is at least one they're aware of. |

This is the first I've heard of it... Being that it works fine in the valley of mines but not in the new areas... I bet they'll probably just tell you to re-install the game from scratch. It seems there would be a lot more fuss about it if it were a common issue...

It didn't hinder me too much, as I managed to complete the game with the bug present (could still work forges and the like in oldworld and on the final island). No big deal  |

Enter 'hero export foo' and 'hero import foo' in the devmode's console.
(this should only happen if you played around with marvin)

Yes, a wise choice. I used hero export to readminister points I'd put into bow when I decided I'd rather use xbows. That's probably the source of the bug I experienced. |
