killap patch "application error" crash in San Fran

I have a game saved in the 4th-or-so unarmed battle which leads up to the melee with Dragon in San Francisco (the opponent is Jobe).

Every time I click to end my turn, displaying the "You Win!" text as usual, I get an Application Error. Kind of totally blew the savegame.

So... yeah. Latest killap patch; haven't run into any other application errors up until here.
 
I'm looking at http://user.tninet.se/~jyg699a/fallout2.html#gecko

I don't seem to have triggered the "Get 3-step plasma transformer for Skeeter" quest despite trading him the Super Tool Kit for the car part. I have exhausted all the dialog possibilities and even talked to his assitant.

Also, am I supposed to have received a Talisman? The first time I talked to The Brain was after I repaired the plant (but not optimized). The Brain didn't give me one even after optimizing the power plant.

Umm.. Any chance you can load up an older save and try to reproduce this?

God I get this question so much. (Not mad at you at all, just mad at the devs for setting it up this way...maybe I should just change how this quest is handled.)

From a post of mine several pages back:

killap once said:
You must have any or all of the following: magnum, desert eagle, hunting rifle, assault rifle, fn fal, or cattle prod in your inventory at the right moment in dialog to get that quest. Seems odd on the part of the programmers but then again those are the only guns he can upgrade and that is how he repays you in the end for doing the quest.

Brain gives it to you if you initially talk with him about working with the plant. He will send you to talk to Gordon. I take it you talked with him before speaking with Brain.
 
In the quest to save the farmer's brahmin in Modoc, my party members started intentionally killing the Brahmin. They also seem to have ignored attacking any of the dogs that didn't actually attack me.

EDIT: I also couldn't end combat when Sulik decided to attack one with no dogs left, provoking it to attack him. After I killed this Brahmin, I could end the battle.

So much for the reward.

Yeah, this has happened to me before. Usually it begins when a party member accidently hits one of the brahmin instead of the dogs. In your case, I suggest just trying again.
 
Well I did load up a previous save and I think my character got corrupted during those unarmed battles. For some reason I had Hip Kick (and I only have 5 str without my adv power armor on). It worked fine this time, though the battles were noticeably more difficult with only snap kick.

Someone knows something about Aplication Error bugs in the West side of The Den and how to fix the problem? I'm using the Killap patch. The newest one.

Please be more specific. What are you doing to cause this crash? What version of my patch are you running? Is this a fresh install of Fallout 2 with my patch? Is this issue reproducible?

I'm just walking into The West side of the Den. I'm running the newest version. It's a fresh install with your patch. Yes, It's reproducible, because East Side is ok. I'll can upload a savegame on rapidshare and post the link here. Just a moment.

EDIT: Here it is:

Hmmm...yes I too get this crash. Can you give me more detail when you first noticed this? Obviously it didn't crash when you first go there. What all have you done at the Den. Please be specific.

Edit: You don't have the car yet, correct? I saw the quest open in the Den.

Well... let me see all I did:


Brought Psycho from Tubby. Lots of it.
Talked with the BOS guy just to receive a ridiculous response as usual. I hate this guy.
Killed Joel and his friends for Anna's locket. With my bare hands. I rock, YAY!!
Helped Anna.
Gave the money to Fred.
Some stuff of mine (fruits, xander roots and that kind of stuff) is inside the car.
Conviced Franky to buy hootch from becky.
Fought two addicts. Killed one, and the other fleed.
Left a dynamite on all childs before going away. Kidding.
 
So, this
Fought two addicts. Killed one, and the other fleed.

was the last thing you did before going back to the West End?

Something seems broken in your DENBUS1.SAV file. I switched it with another and I did not experience any crash. Hmmm...

I cannot really do any magic here and somehow figure out what has happened. If you can somehow reproduce this error then I can actually do something about it. Any chance you can start up a save game and do everything you did at the Den again exactly (or as close to) as you did before.
 
So, you said that using another DENBUS1.SAV save file, your game did not crash. The character and the things I did (like killing Joel) stayed the same?

If so, I've found another DENBUS1.SAV file that a friend sent to me, and I'm going to test it and see what happens tomorrow, because I'm not on my PC.

Thanks for the help! In these dark times of abortions of games, Fallout 2 can shredd some light into our Fallout fans' hearts!
 
Interesting bug.

At the New rebuplic city(name right?), when you have to help stop the guy from blowing himself and the reactor up.

You fail to stop him, and Dorothy fails to stop the core from exploding, the client crashes after the explosions.

Have to check.

Can't remember if i have any saves anymore of it, not keeping them much since i'm not vigorously bughunting.

EDIT:

Have a savefile just before it now, but can't reproduce. Tried about 4-5 times in a similar fashion i did last time.
 
Sounds like a random issue. Explosion (ie dynamite, etc) are known to cause the game to randomly crash at times.
