    Re: Game dies when trying to go to the drow 2nd time - any help?

    I'm not too sure about this being a bug or not, but I have had experiences about the game crashing whenever I tried visiting that forest the 2nd time through reading the Witch's note, be it in Normal or Ironman mode, with various combinations of characters. Is there supposed to be any secrets in visitng that forest twice??? It always worked fine for the 1st visit though. :p

    By the way, I did disabled Autosave, and did installed the most up-to-date cummulative 5.04 mods.

    Just moved you to a separate thread to give you a better chance of being picked up by someone who is familiar with the mod/ Krunch the mod designer.

    Just a quick question, as someone will probably need to know, have you installed the latest Cumulative Mod Fixpack? I'm guessing yes, but no harm in checking to be certain.

    I thought the note was removed in 5.0.4, in favor of just marking the area on your world map in the list of locations on the right (no icon; it's just on the list).

    Maybe if you already had a save game with the note, but then updated, that might be causing the problem?

    fyi - There are no drow in my mod. A combination of the drow and a forest would be ShiningTed's MOD, the Moathouse Respawn.

    Do you have a saved game that is from the Co8 5.0.4 CMF with Autosave disabled that is also before you went to the Gnarley Forest the first time?
    If yes, use that save, go to and leave the Gnarley Forest and return after that.

    I had already tried that. The game simply crash whenever I try accessing the forest twice, either by reading the note or through the world map.

    That should be indicative of a bad installation or saved data [not corrupted, just not right]...uninstall MOD and game, delete remaining game folders and files, reboot computer, and new install.

    How do you get this quest? I know I've done it before but I have no recollection of how I got it ...

    :confused: :blush:

    It is the culmination of the Moathouse Respawn. After you clear the moathouse, wait a while and some new monsters will move in.

    The definitive statement on the 'return to Gnarley Woods' crash is here.
