Can't Proceed Due To Character Not Moving

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 2:58 am

I bought this game a while ago but my computer, at the time, couldn't run it. I installed it on my new Windows 7 machine and am having a weird problem. It's pretty early in the game and I'm in Innsmouth. I'm in the room with the printing press and I open the door on the right and turn to face the woman who has hanged herself. The focus switches to her but then I can't move. I can sneak, crouch, and access the game menu but I can't move or proceed. It's like there's a narrative piece wanting to start but it doesn't. Anyone else encounter this and (hopefully) have a workaround?

Anyone have a solution for this?

Same issue here. Really started getting into the game, and then... this.
Don't have a previous save to go back to either. Would have to play the intro over again, and that's assuming this doesn't happen repeatedly. Halp!

Windows 7 32-bit
Intel Quad Core Processor
EVGA graphics card (Nvidia GTX 260)
4 Gigs of Gskill DDR3 ram
Asus RoG motherboard. Forget the model number, can get if necessary.

Thanks for the attempt/sarcasm, but it seems to be a forced cutscene upon traveling through the door; no matter where I look, my camera pans and focuses in a bit to her left. If it's an issue loading the cutscene, is there a patch or something? Perhaps an issue running it through Steam? I could always extract it to elsewhere on my C:/, I guess.

are you going into that room first? because if I remember right that's the second room you want to enter after getting into the room with the printing press. Let me know if that helps any.
