Infinite Error Reports since update

#1 Post by Furey »

I've opened my previous saved file in the ruined dungeon and when I summon a fire drake and it meets an elder vampire it generates an infinite loop of errors (I can't click submit, as it continuously spams me)

It looks like the vampire is continuously stunning and the fire drake just sits there.

Not sure if this helps at all.

I also loaded my current lvl 28 Stone Warden which I was playing with in the previous version(1.1.3).
Since 1.1.4 I'm getting errors all over the place. Some skills I can use multiple times during a turn.
I'm not getting an infinite loop of errors, but it's still pretty much unplayable.

Bit of a pain in the ass since it's the first time I got this far and I only lost 1 live so far. I really don't feel like doing it again...

I am getting the same kind of LUA errors with my dwarf bulwark on level 3 of Dreadfell as well.It locked up the program and I had to kill it using program manger. I hope it did not hurt my save since she is my most successful character so far.

I don't think I can paste the images in here? I have to upload them somewhere right?
I did start to send the error reports to you in game.

My wife and I are having a similar issue. We've loaded up our 1.1.3 saved games (the game updated to 1.1.5 overnight) and get an error screen every time we swing and hit something. If we kill it, we don't get the error. If we miss, we don't get it either. If the monster hits us, and we damage it with our damage shield, we don't get it.

She made a new character and ran around, and is not getting the error message. So something seems to have broken with the damage calculator between versions. We both submitted bug reports. Hope that helps! Thanks for the awesome game by the way. Been a supporter for well over a year.

Transfering a character between versions is frequently dangerous.

It's not necessarly caused by the save game transfer.

In 1.1.4 i made a skeleton marauder that is going very well, and roughly starting at the time i cleared Daikara i get regularly error message popping up when i simply hit or use Rush or use Flurry on some enemies (oddly, not all but maybe 50% of them).

Errors that have all been reported by the online report thing (is that really usefull or should i report them on the forum instead ?) , but from the look at the expanded changelist for 1.1.5 it does not seem to be on the fixed part, so i'll continue running my 1.1.4 character in ToME4 1.1.4 for now

I have had this kind of problem many times, until I discovered that it was caused by addons (I had nulltweaks active, but not nullpack that defined resources that where used by nulltweaks).

There could be a similar reason for you if your char requires addon x, while this addon is not installed in the 1.1.5 directory...

Had a similiar issue, my level 47 arcane blade was exploring and grinding some farportals, and every time i attack something, i get a LUA error.

Arcane combat doesnt seem to proc ever, and sometimes i can use melee attack skills without them getting on cooldown.

Some enemies dont attack back, so it follows a pattern like: "my attack - LUA error - (no enemy attack)- my attack etc"

Using Displacement shield generates infinite errors and got me killed once (0 lives left, all prides completed, first time i ever got so far, so losing that one life hurt like a mofo)

I can create new characters and they will not get any errors, i dont run any addons (i have donated so i guess it lists item-vault and stone warden as addons but nothing beyond those)

I really really really hope there's some way to fix this haha

The issue here is Steam automatically updates the game. There is no choice when you go to load your game other than to play in the new version at that point. Kind of a nasty surprise when you've been working for many hours to get a high level character up only to have it killed by a game update.

We have no add-ons installed other the the two base ones that come with the Steam version (Stonewarden and Itemvault I believe).

You can tell Steam not to update.
