Beginning of Telos Academy, black screen


Parmenides

Recommended Posts

When I first go into the Telos Academy, and am told to yield my weapons, I get a black screen immediately after. I can move the mouse, run around, and click the menu, but nothing happens. If I save the game and load, I can see, but Atton is in her place with the door open and won't talk. Maybe I can ignore that whole line of dialogue?

 

Is there some console command to engage it?

 

I have:

ATI video card, new drivers, Windows XP, and latest TSL patch.

This is a well-known bug that is actually caused by the patch, of all things. :roleyess:

 

The simplest way to get past it is to go back to an earlier save from before you enter the academy. Then choose any dialog option other than the first one (the one that says "We mean no harm") when confronted by the Handmaiden. You can still surrender your weapons in a later dialog option without earning any DS points.

 

There is also a fix for this somewhere on Filefront in the form of a handmaiden.dlg file that you place in your override folder.
