Crashing at the Camp Ambush (DAO)

This seems to be a very rare glitch as I could only find two web pages on google about it and none were helpful.

So here's the jist of it. Whenever I try to directly travel between two points on the world map I get the Archdemon cutscene that immediately means I'm about to get ambushed by the Darkspawn in the Party Camp. Only problem is I never make it there. Straight after the cutscene I get an instant freeze and crash in the classic "Dragon Age has stooped working" kind of way. I have tried various solutions for this already...

- Lowered graphics to the lowest setting.

- Set affinity to 1 CPU

- Alt+Tab during the cutscene (Why did the guy who told me this think it would work?)

- Skipping the Cutscene

None of these have worked.

As for mods yes I have some installed and am aware they could be the problem. But the bigger problem there is that if I uninstall them(some of them at least) I will not be able to reload my save game. It has unfortunately happened before forcing me to restart over with a new game.

The mods I have installed are the following.

- Deathblows

- DA Redesigned

- JB Textures

- JB Armor Textures

- Devout Armor

- Leliana Sacred Ashes Armor

- Warden Armors

- No Helmet Hack

- Skip The Fade

- Of Noble Cast

These mods I should mention have not casued any problems before this if they are indeed to blame.

My computers specs also more than meet the games settings.

Now this problem is skipable by going to the Camp before you travel each time you go the map and I'll continue this way if I have to reach the games end, but I really like this scene in the game and don't want to miss it if at all possible.

Help really appriacted guys and gals 🙂

  • This issue is caused by JB's textures. Uninstall that particular mod and load an EARLIER save.

    Try unistall the mods and play the game. If then the game work  the mods is that corrupt the game. Try that. Now if that can't help you then try to unistall the game -just remember to backup your save data-. 

    That can help you. Tell me if you had success. 🙂

    The problem seems to be in the game and no one else.
