I just defeated a random encounter in a mountain pass. Traveling from the dock district i landed in this random encounter. After defeating the mobs i went to look for the little world portal out of there. There was only one in this mod. Guess what!!!! The world port doesnt freaking work. Thats right i am stuck in a random encounter area with no mobs to fight and no place to go. I tried to restart from earlier saved games but i am still stuck. I tried to restart the game but no help. Everything else was working fine up to this point. Now i cant even continue to play because my party is trapped in NWN2 HELL. Anyone have any advise or HELP it would be appreciated.

How can beta testers not have found that? Maybe there's something you're not seeing? I'll get back to this if I notice anything, still need to get my copy today.

Had my first encounter, "bandit toll booth", no problems there.

Maybe there are specific encounters that have it, if so... try making screen shots and getting them to the right people so the problem can be fixed?

The bug appears after the Orc caves that leads on to the dwarf scouts. Before you reach the dwarf scouts, there is an encounter with some orcs.

After killing all these orcs, the screen go black for a while. When the world reappears again, the one that I have for leader is separated by a long distance from his/her group, and group members have stopped following (some at least, but its always someone).

You can issue command and make them follow you again, but when going to the one world transition that exist in this encounter, it fails to bring you back to the world map.

Hope that will help little further.

There's just some orcs near a broken wagon/cart there?
If so there should be a cutscene that shows more orcs comming and [shuts up to avoid spoiling too much].

So I think it doesn't allow you to leave cause your "job" isn't done in the encounter.

[edit]
I advice making sure you have the dwarf (Khelgar - fighter) and tiefling (Neeshka - rogue) with you. Wait, I advice that everywhere. They're the best two companions (RP-wise) I've seen so far.

This is by far the nastiest bug, it happens because you are not controlling your character when a cutscene is started, and thus it bugs out.

To work around these situations, go back to a previous save and make sure you are only controlling your main character when the last creature dies.

The good news is that this doesn't seem to be an issue once act 2 gets going. Act 2 is a real stormer as well.

By all means, guys, if you get things like that feel free to report the bug to us with as many details as possible (screen grabs are great too). You all well know how to report a bug, please give us details and we'll send them across.

That happened to me too, it's because a part way earlier on which was part of the main quest never advanced for you. Same exact thing happened to me. I deleted all my saves and started over 100% and the main part that didn't advance before did this time.

Also I got rid of the Dwarf Fighter as my character whips much more butt than he did and yet his name still crops up in my NPC reply list.

I understand that this problem is being addressed in the 1.02 hotfix. This patch was released yesterday but taken down again for a little more tweaking. Should be available again real soon.
