Kua-toa dungeon refuses to load

    The Kuo-Toa area in the underdark (BG2) refuses to load, the loading screen displays, it beeps and the game freezes. I have no idea why, this is the first time I've had problems with it, and i havent installed any new mods. The only thing I can think of is that the area file is stuffed, so if someone could send me a (working) version of the file (AR2402) I would very much appreciate it, or if anyone knows of a solution to this problem...
    Normally I would just skip the place, but unfortunately its the only way out of the underdark that I know of.

    Please help its extreamly frustrating.

    I had a similiar problem, though I had a lot of mods. My game crashed each and every time I tried to enter Kuo Toa lair.

    Try to enable error logging in: Open your baldur.ini file in BG2 folder via notepad and add "Logging On=1" under [Program Options], save the file, load your game, try to enter the lair again. When crashed, check a file named baldur.err created in your BG2 folder. This file lists the buggy, broken files needed to be fixed, such as area, creature, or maybe items. Post the contents here. It may help. I took this advice from another poster in a different forum. It worked for me then. Hope it can help you!

    My Baldur.err file said:

    He he he see the resemblence? You have the very same problem as I did!

    OK the file UDPRINCE is corrupted you need to remove it here is the quick solution:Open your override folder, find the file UDPRINCE and CUT it and paste it to a different location, say, to your desktop. Reload your game and try again and tell me the results!

    I am so happy for you! It is rather a rare occasion that such a nasty game-stopper bug can be fixed so easily!

    Well go and have fun then! Good luck! :)

    I had this exact same bug happen to me, and my game is very lightly modded. I dug up the answer from the SCS2 forums just a little while back. Silverstar's bug saved my game too!
