I've only leveled Christa's Gift's damage up once and haven't gotten the increased range upgrades, so maybe those make it start functioning again.

I've got the same problem!

However, if I load an older save (where I'm not in demonis) they work fine. has there been a recent update (its hard to tell from steam)

thanks

Same problem, not only in Demonis but in Hades as well...
Should you by chance be close enough to a travel zone, you may go out and in again, and the bug disappears...

I noticed it's still possible to fight / talk / enter a castle... but even after a fight the camera is still "locked" at the old position.... Unfortunately my last 4 hours of game were in Demonis

Hope some urgent fix is on the run....

EDIT: reloaded a "quite old but not so" save game located in Demonis, my viking being close to the portal, went out and in again, could move, but every time I try to fight, the game crashes (in the lava arena) after 2 or 3 min (tried 4 or 5 times with the same savegame)...

Very weird, tried an older savegame (4 days ago), went to demonis and could fight without a crash...

Tried another recent savegame, located in demonis, with camera bug... game crashed during next fight... looks like the savegame is really corrupted....

Cool, new update here.

I don't have time to start updating the bugs thread right now, but I can work on it soon. Meanwhile, if anybody has new bugs to report or olds ones to help point out that should be removed from my list feel free to post them here.

Don't forget to post your build if you're reporting bugs - you can find it on the title page of the game.

PS - My game still says build 6250. Maybe Steam isn't really updated yet?

Updated. A lot of the new bugs that were fixed weren't on the original list, so I only had to change a few things. Let me know if I missed anything.

I wasn't sure how crafting has changed (sounds ominous!) so I don't know whether they still require levels of artificer and if so, whether or not the scrolls tell you what level you need (they didn't before and it was on our list).

I am very curious if any of the many hang-ups introduced in patched savegames are fixed. Let me know if you guys see anything clear up. Going to test Poison Cloud right now and report back with an edit.

Edit: I have fixed the Poison Cloud issue. Apparently I had downloaded and installed "mod_wn131_interface.kfs" a while back so I could see previews of the spell upgrades. Well, inside that folder are a bunch of other .lua files have that since been modded and caused conflicts. If you have that mod I suggest you delete it until there is an update. So, if you are getting hangups with spells (Poison Cloud, Rune Chain, possibly others) hunt to see if you have this in your sessions or sessions/mods folder.

Spell: Pain Mirror - Damage done is a fraction of what it should be
Spell: Magic Missle - Does not do 150% damage to Soothsayers
Rage: Christa's Gift - Enemy units show being under the effect of Greed's Curse, but walk right by gold pile as if it's not there (previously reported)
Item: Game of Bones - Activating the game does not work (previously reported)

Latest patch through Steam

I have played the game twice. The first play through I had no problems with Christa's Gift, the second play through, I have not as of yet, had a problem with Pain Mirror, but Christa's Gift does not work.

Thanks. I'll add Christa's Gift and Magic Missile in a moment. I'm not sure about Pain Mirror though... are you saying it was broken but now it's not?

Yea; damn it I have this bug. THe first time I played I did not run into the paper bug but this game I had an ink in my inventory; I get the paper from rezo but now the stupid quest won't advance and I cannot give the paper to Drotar. Sigh. Lame ass bug; this is build 6250. This sounds different than what you said below since you were actually able to complete the quest but I cannot.

Regarding this bug:

Paper for the Professor: Build 6250. Bought the paper from Rezo but the quest log wasn't updated and it can't be completed. Additional information: "I accepted the quest with 2 ink bottles in my inventory but "get some ink" was greyed out in the quest log. I may have initially refused the paper item from Rezo and/or did another quest first in the same conversation."

It was a bit different for me. I am running 6249/6250. What happened was the following:

When Rezo tell me that the paper costs 2000 gold I only get this alternative to choose from:
"By Odin's beard! That would buy a very fine axe! Enough, I think I will keep the money!"
I take this as a rejection to the purchase, but what happens is that I lose 2000 gold and get the item called "Sheaf of Paper".

The first bug here is that the option I can select does not match the action that happens. Either change the text or add a second option where one is to buy the paper and the other is to bail out.

The second bug at this stage is that the quest log does not update. The entry "Find some paper for Professor Drotar. Ask Archmage Rezo if he has any paper" should have been grayed out.

The third bug is that the house of Drotar the Scientist does not light up as is normal when you should visit a building to advance a quest.

When talking to Drotar I got an option to deliver the paper and finish the quest. So I was able to complete it, but it was confusing for a while.

Re: Pain Mirror - To clarify I haven't encountered the spell in my second play through yet, so I can't report whether or not it is still happening with the latest patch. Thanks.

I am not 100% sure this is a bug, but: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=38155

I have no idea how to proceed, and I think I tried everything.
