Crashing After Respec
I made a few bad decisions with my skill points and wanted to reset them. Every time I use the Respec Amulet on my Inquisitor, the game freezes up. I've tried this in multiple areas too. Hinterla...
Yep, same thing happened to me twice now. Human Mage too.
Going to try and save immediately after respeccing then load the game and see if that can bypass it, will respond here to notify if this helps fix the issue.
edit: It seems saving immediately after respeccing can save you from a crash. I experienced a black screen crash when trying to load the save right after. But once you shut it down, enter the game again and reload the save it should work as normal.
Here's hoping there isn't any "taint" on my file now that is going to make me crash later down the track.... First major issue I've had playing this game, not bad considering I'm 65 hours in.
I had this happen once on my human mage, but have since respecc'd a few times without issue. Not sure what I'm doing differently, but here's how I'm running my game:
--Not running as administrator, but my user account is an admin
--Online features are disabled (they were enabled the first time I respecc'd and had a freeze)
--Running the game outside of the Origin client as I have to use the switches to force 60fps or the dialogue/cutscene feezing issue makes the game unplayable
--Full screen windowed
Hope any of this helps.
