[Known 7050] Where did Neera go? BG2:EE

Sed

I kind of let her go on her own in the magical forest, and now I can't enter the camp without her, so where do I find her again?
She was supposed to meet me there...

zupsky

I had the same problem. I used cheat codes to get inside the camp, and she was standing there (and you can't talk to her, or anybody else inside). I guess it's a bug.

Illydth

Can you produce a Saved Game and upload it here along with some steps that caused the issue? We'll get a bug report filed on it.

Sed

@Illydth
I'm not the only one with this issue.

Same thing, you meet her, you go to the forest, you tell her you want to find your own way in and she disappears.

Sorry for the lack of clarity in my post:

I'm not arguing that this is a bug or that it's not happening. I'm asking if you can produce something by which I can throw into a bug report so that we can get this bug in front of the Developers for being looked at.

The fact that you've seen the bug and have it happening right now means (hopefully?) you can re-produce the bug with one of the games you are currently playing on...and thus if you have that game and can tell us what you did to get this, we can make a re-producable test case that the devs can look at and throw a fix out for in a patch.

Maybe I should be even clearer: I'm a beta tester, I have access to the bug reporting database. I'd like to report this as a bug and need reproduction steps and a saved game to do so.

Loserhunter

I confirm this bug, but sadly i haven't a save game before the wild forest.
To reproduce this just dont hire neera at the beginning of wild forest and she permanently disapears.

I had the same thing, I alt-Jed into the camp. Alt-Qed Neera and then jumped back start of the map. And everything worked from then.

I didn't initially accept Neera because when I did she constantly kept overriding into conversation, cycling through her dialogue. Once you are out of the Forest - all seems fine however.

@Sed, @DetectiveMittens, @Loserhunter

So what i'm hearing:

* You meet neera in the bridge district and interact with the Child being Kidnapped.
* You meet Neera again in a transition zone the next time you zone over to somewhere else. She tells you to meet her at the Wild Forest and puts it on your map.
* You go to the wild forest and meet Neera but tell her to buzz off and not join your party?

Are those the basic reproduction steps to get this to happen?

Loserhunter

Yes that's it. After you can't meet her anymore.

Sed

@Illydth
Exactly that, but the noteworthy thing is that you tell her that you will find your own way there, and she replies that she will meet you there, so you kind o expect everything to work out fine.
You're not really telling her to buzz off, but more a "I'll see you there"

@Illydth

here is a saved file just before you interact with her in the wild forrest. when it comes to accepting or declining her into the party use the 3rd option. then she will just vanish.

Illydth

Thanks guys, will bug report this momentarly.

Illydth

@Siiggee My Virus Program pinged that RAR download as having a virus in it. No matters, I can produce this with one of my own saves.

Yep, confirming this one and reporting. Looks like Neera should post up at the bridge to the Hidden Refuge and not in the hidden refuge zone.

Illydth

Bug 7050 has been filed for this.

Siiggee

thx mate!! hope it will be resolved soon

Sed

@Illydth
Need to take a look at her conversation options as well, since you couldn't talk to her if you Ctrl+J'd into the hidden camp.

Theogrimmmm

Go inside the camp and target Neera then Press Ctrl+Q that should make her join your party or any NPC at all. then teleport yourself outside with Ctrl+J and that should start the sequence. I hope i've been of some help.

Hi, could you specify what cheats did you use to get into that area? I can't access the forest at all due to a bug although I have Neera in my party.

Sed

you can use the console to "MoveToAre" .. don't know what it's callled though.
if you've found the map you can teleport by using Ctrl+J
