Crashing while looting, UIMouse

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 2:53 pm

I keep getting a crash to the desktop, with no error, when looting. It happens when doing the quest for the dragonclaw that the theives took from the first town. I haven't played enough to see if it happens elsewhere, but with these particular enemies it happens every time (5 times and counting).

Also, has anyone had an issue with the sliders during character creation? It seems like the "hit box" is off a little or too small. Seems very "consolized".

Also, the UI itself seems completely meant to work with a gamepad and not the mouse, menu items are hit or miss when clicking with the mouse. Seems to be tied to the above problem of sliders. The method of browsing the skills is horrible in my opinion, but my friend seems to like it. I think it needs a scroll bar or buttons, having to click in blank space and hold to simply scroll is not intuitive for me.

Equiping things to your hands, whether it be magic or weapons, seems clunky. When I try and put something in my left hand I click and it goes in the right, I click again and it goes left and right, then I click again and it goes right, a fourth click will unequip it. I have to left click, right click, left click sometimes to get it in the left hand. Other times I can just right click and it works. It is hit or miss.

Textures look amazing, but the different between high and low is very... lacking, I am hoping for some ultra or hi-res textures.

Hopefully the mod community can fix the UI hehe.

Even with these few minor problems I still love the game, it is pretty breath-taking, even if I can't loot.

Just an update. it is happening randomly (it seems) when looting anything, not just the mobs on the quest.

Yeah. I save before I loot anything haha.

Seems like it happens most often when the top item on the corpse is a multiple of something (coins, cabbage, lockpicks, ect) and when I hit "loot all" it ask me how many and when I hit "yes" to all of them it crashes.

Has happened on not multiple items, but I just replicated the problem about 10 times on the same corpse that had only coins on him.

I am getting the issue too but, seems to be happening when looting a number of things like more than 1 coin with a slider box with the amount. I figure if I just hit enter is a work arounf but, dont use right click lol. I hope this gets fixed soon.
