Greetings, all!

Tonight I played an Elf Fighter/Mage as a solo character on insane difficulty.

Before leaving for Hrothgar's expedition, I cast [i]find familiar[/i] and left my familiar in Easthaven. I went about my merry way, but when I got to the past before Kuldabar, I was met with the gathering message. I also could not cast [i]find familiar[/i] again to get my familiar back. I reloaded (ugh - but thanks for story mode to expedite things!) and determined that - yep! - it was my familiar's absense that caused this bug.

Pweath fix this!

(I was on a Windows machine.)

    How did you leave the familiar behind - I've tried a few options and it always gets transported.
    Thanks

    I went back to the far left side of the screen pre-Kuldahar after resting for many days - long enough for loot to disappear - and found no familiar. Upon reloading, my familiar did travel with me from Easthaven, but seemingly disappeared in the shuffle. My familiar didn't die since my HP didn't decrease and, based on testing, my familiar's death would have permitted me to leave the area.

    Maybe it was resting away objects that also removed my familiar.

    Can you zip up and upload a savegame where you have lost your familiar? Preferably one soon after you did.

    This is the file I have where I first noticed my familiar was missing, probably many, many in-game days after he disappeared. (Poor kitty!)

    Your cat is sitting on the bridge to the east.

    If you click the Select All button on the bottom right, it will select your familiar as well.

    Ah. DId not notice that.

    What's the default key command to select all?
  • Gate70Gate70 Member, Developer Posts: 3,883
    Numeric 0 key should select the entire party.

    How do I rebind that?

    Nevermind. I got it.

    (It was under Quick Slots options near the bottom.)
