Biiiiig problem, epsilon - Stuck in endless computer-turn

M

Mad Max beyond Junk City

First time out of the vault
Alright, remember the old continues combat watch problems in fallout 1&2
man that thing was annoying

well, i was hoping they fixed that problem for tactics, and i was over joyed when i saw no there was no lil stop watch for combat, instead it was replaced by a lil meter, showed some promise, but its still the same type of programming, so i thought it was inevitable that the problem would surface eventually


problem- just finished the scott robot mission, headed back to the bunker, and once inside i get a continues combat problem, the meter pops up and it continually ends and restarts combat with no enemies around

cant move, cant interact, and it sucks
ive got a few save games, none before entering the scott mission though, and once completin the mission i tried running around to other places and seeing if the problems there too, and its only in the scott mission

now, is this a new problem? (doubts it)
can it be solved with the patch? (hopes so)
and if so, whats the minimum version of the patch that would solve it?
im bumping a 20k internet connection and dont want to spend 5 hours downloading a 17MB patch
 
aaaaanyone got any answers?
any body?

i put so much time into that file and it makes my brain hurt now that i hve to just sit here and stare at the icon and say 'why do you hate me?'
 
seems it freezed ...happened to me sometimes too...stop game...load savegame...sorry can't give you any other advice
 
Get a better connection and d/l the patch. Should fix most of the problems. Or just go to a netcafe, d/l from there and burn it into a CD. Or some game magazines might have that update on some of the cover CD's. But the game is quite old so...
 
Are you playing in one of the TB modes? There's a bug where if you leave a map while in combat mode when you return to the map it'll be in endless combat and your turn will never come up.

Only thing you can do is go back to an earlier save game.

Sometimes it's set off in the bunkers if you crash a vehicle just as you move on to the exit grid.
 
cool, thanks for the lil tid-bit

ill give it a whirl and see what can be done

if it doesnt work i guess ill just try and find an old old version of the patch somewhere
 
Can't you fix it by clicking the selector over to CTB, go back to the map you have the problem on, and then kick normal TB back on?
 
Stuck in endless computer-turn

Hey,

playing fot for 1 day i finally got a big problem:

- I finished the mission at quincy and wanted to go back to bunker beta

- If i enter bunker beta the sign for Turn: computer on the right comes up an does not go away. I can not move.
Changing the TB-modes does not help.

- Same problem occurs at quincy.

- All other locations i discoverd there is no problem. For example i can go to bunker alpha and trade, recute ...

Anyone has a clue how to get out of this troubles.
Also I have only one save-game... :-(

Thanks for your help, anyway.

This normally happens because you clip the hummer against a wall, object or person just as you drive onto the exit grids. There's no known fix, if you haven't any earlier saves you'll have to start over or give up.

Merged.
 
Thanks for the quick reply.

Even it does not make me happy.
I think I will replay. And save more...

please help with this bug i found

Hi there, i just finished the PREORIA mission, and i go back to bunker beta and when i get in it, i cant move, i have no action points, and where it would normally say end turn, it just says computers turn but never does anything, im stuck. i also noticed that i cant go back to some of the previous missions as the same thing happens, i re installed the game to no avail, im very sad as i really love this game and i am writing this as i cant find any help on the internet at all.

Please help

Gameplay error bunker alpha Please help.

I'm not that far in but I wanted to find out how to solve this issue before I went further. I just saved the elder and went back to the bunker alpha, when I enter I am stuck standing and all the characters in my vision range are talking at a high rate and It says turn computer as if Im in combat mode and you can do nothing else. Thanks please if anyone knows give me an idea. Im patched to 1.27 . I can however enter random encounters outside. or go back into towns Ive been like brahminwood etc. :crazy:
 
in the bunker try pressing the enter key to enter combat mode then choosing "end combat mode" and see if that helps.
