Infinite hourglass in Verhoffin's Ruins 01/06/2009, 18:21:17

Christy writes: I am trying to do a minimum kill game. In the past, I've been able to do the mage quest part of Verhoffin's ruins only having to kill the two skeletons at the top of the ramp. I thought for this game I would try and see if I could avoid it by using Turn Undead. Well, the Turn Undead spell worked, except that when I go into turn-based mode to avoid the Terrors in the room with the key, I get an hourglass that won't go away. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Turn Undead spell (which I cast in real-time mode). Does anyone have any suggestions for how to avoid this? The party is not able to take a beating from two Terrors without fighting back.

(n/t) - Christy ( Tue 06-Jan-09 18:22:23 ) +1 You're in turn-based mode, right? - Peter2 ( Tue 06-Jan-09 19:08:43 ) +2 No, this uses a specific method (spoiler!) - Christy ( Tue 06-Jan-09 20:13:55 ) +1 The Infinite Hourglass is due to a certain glitch in the game.... - Bones ( Tue 06-Jan-09 20:47:45 ) +1 Actually, I haven't killed anything - Christy ( Wed 07-Jan-09 09:33:18 ) +1 It's possible but not especially likely. Something else that needs to be watched. (n/t) - Bones ( Thu 08-Jan-09 09:38:29 ) Well, I made it through the ruins, but now I have another problem - Christy ( Tue 06-Jan-09 20:33:57 ) +2 Well, my previous save won't let me into Sturmford City either - Christy ( Tue 06-Jan-09 20:42:48 ) IIRC, ... - Peter2 ( Wed 07-Jan-09 05:56:49 ) +1 A thought has just struck me. - Peter2 ( Wed 07-Jan-09 06:01:10 ) +1 Yes, I'm on a laptop - Christy ( Wed 07-Jan-09 09:25:17 ) +1 Well, I got to the end of the line - can't continue - Christy ( Wed 07-Jan-09 21:02:00 ) +1 I managed to solve the entire problem of getting no dialogue box to enter an area - Christy ( Thu 08-Jan-09 20:54:55 ) +1 Excellent - glad everything's now OK. Enjoy! (n/t) - Peter2 ( Fri 09-Jan-09 08:46:16 )
