If you need another key and the robots do not drop the second one, then open your savegame with a hexeditor and change the value at offset 0xa80 from '01' to '02'. It's cheating but it's better than doing the game from the start again.

G-2b,

I have merged the savefile thread into your FAQ, because there were too many stickies since the forum merger.

I also unstickied the 'Solution to killing the Last Boss' seeing as your FAQ has covered it.

Please can you check it's ok?

Thanks

Seems like, although it's AAAWFully long now...

Well you have been AAAWFully thorough no?



I think this FAQ really answers everything.

Well, thanks. But seeing the number of return questions, (some) people apparently don't read through it.

Maybe AAAWFully thorough, but I still don't know who has that game where Pey'j wearing long underwear on the moon rather than his jetboots (which are supposed to be in Jade's inventory) jeans and jacket(supposedly taken when he was captured). I've seen 2 different screenshots of that so far.

...In the patched game, you can use Rahly's Bug FIX to overcome this. There is no fix for the unpatched game. The only thing you can do there is to load an earlier savegame when you were still together....
...ONLY for the patched game:
Use the Bug FIX by Rahly or his unofficial patch for the patched game or his savegame editor...=[This message was edited by bitebug2003 on Thu April 01 2004 at 03:06 PM.]

Does anybody have a working link for Rahly's bug fix and savegame editor??? Sorry for english.

I have merged the G-2b's walkthrough Thread with this one to make room for another Stickie.



The links to the files appear to be down. I am currently sorting out some alternative arrangements.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Here is 90% of people's "unfixable" problems.

The copyprotection. . From what I can gleam from the company that does the copyprotection, instead of being a "wrapper" around the executable, the coder actually embeds checking code all over the place. The code actually checks for multiple things that different for each check. Unfortunately, a bug, "most likly" in the installation, causes problems by not setting all of the "variables" that it checks for, but only sometimes . Fortunately, the bugs never seem to include the actual disk checking method and so, it loads up just fine. But since it checks in OTHER areas, you end up with other unexpected bugs like, the Slaughter House no key fall, AND how your save games are saved. I'm not sure what else it affects. With the original disks, you have about a 5-10% chance to get either or both of these bugs. Upgrading with the patch, and this soars to 60-70% chance. This is why some people don't experience the slaughter house bug, and how other people when they reinstall, can't use their save games. The save game bug makes BGAE either save encrypted or not encrypted. Unfortunatly, you can have the slaughter house bug and your save games are encrypt, in which case my patch and my save game editor will not work. But you can also not have the slaughthouse bug and your save game is unencrypted. You can fix the slaughter house bug just by reinstalling until it works, unfortunately, this may make your save games unusable.

~wipes his hands from all this, and leaves it for someone else to fix~ :-D

I had problems getting the keycard from three robots at the Slaughter House. But thanks you're save states I could get forward in the game.

Hello guys.
I have an infuriating problem with BG&E. Namely, the game crashes after i first take off with the space ship and destroy the flying worm. It ALWAYS happens after I've killed it - a few seconds and *whoosh* - it kicks me out to windows without a word of explanation.
If anybody has got a clue what's up with that, I'll be thankful.

Hello, and thaks for this great thread

I'm currently having problems with the No-Key-Drop bug and "Central Hall Crash" bug. So I uinstalled the game, defraged my hdd, and then installed the game agian. I'm running the no patched version.
So I downloaded the savegames for the no patch version. Then I took savegame 3 and puttet it in the "Beyond good and evil" folder. My computer-> C-> Program files-> Ubisoft-Z Beyond good and evil.
But still after I did this the game won't start. Every time I go into the game and select load, five different savegames appear. Each one called "hangar 1", "hangar 2" etc. So when I chose "hangar 3" it says "load succesfull". But instaed of letting me into the game it takes me right back to the main menu. The menu where you choose which language you're playing in. Am I doing anything wrong with the save files, or do I have to start all over again?

Thanks for your replies

You requested we said which savegames for what version if we used these, so I thought I'd say I've downloaded savegame 3 for the patched version. I experienced both the no-key problem in the Slaughterhouse, and the game crashing in the same area~
Anyways, thanks for the savegame. (:

Hi there. I've been trying to enter my code in the Darkroom but it just goes to a black page and doesn't move from there. Is the Darkroom down now and I'm too late to get the code for my game?

Looks like we are too late. At least decode.php and admin_hyllian.php doesn't work properly. Table of results broken too (unable to change pages).
