KotOR: Crash after leviathan

[TheReaperWaits]

Hey folks,

 

Keep getting a crash here after you leave the Leviathan and do the random space fighting minigame.... The cutscence that follows crashes every time.

 

I have all the usual fixes to get this game running... This is the only problem I can't solve.

 

Only threads I can find are people giving their saved games to others to get past it for them. There must be another way?

 

Thanks.

Try using the game's configuration utility to post your system specs:

Post your system specs

Sometimes we're just not going to be able to help you if we don't know what kind of hardware you have on your machine. If you don't know what you have on your machine, then follow these steps below:

• Bring up the launcher menu for Kotor 1 or 2.
  
• Click on "Configure".
  
• Click the "Scan Hardware" button on the lower center of the window.
  
• Click "Yes" to continue.
  
• Click "Details" to view your system specs.
  
• Click "Save Report" and save the file to your desktop.
  
• Whenever you post your problem, open the file you just saved and copy and paste the contents to your post.

You can leave out the keymapping and everything after that. Also, please specify which version of Windows you are using because the game can't ID anything newer than XP.

Hope that is all you need...

[Q]

1) Did you install the game according to the large-print instructions at the top of the second post in this thread?

 

2) Are you using any mods?

[TheReaperWaits]

Afraid not.... I followed other guides to get this working....

 

Would you suggest I re-instal following that guide?

 

No MODs...

 

Thanks,

[Q]

Would you suggest I re-instal following that guide?

Yes, I would. Swconfig is reading your OS as Win9x, which means that the game was not installed, nor is it being run in XP SP2 compatibility mode, which is necessary for the game to run correctly. It's very likely that not running the game in XP SP2 compatibility mode resulted in a corrupted save.

 

Keep your saves and reinstall. If you still have the problem, try going back to an earlier save.
