is this a bug?

Post by reptakos »

Hi,

After long time I started again to play with MW, this time , using the OpenMW.
Just I noticed that the whole Raven Rock does not exist anymore.... I mean the place is empty from buildings, I m pretty sure that the Bloodmooon is loaded. Is this a known issue?

thx

It is not supposed to be there from the beginning. It will be built as you progress in the East Empire Company quest line.

This may sound dumb, but have you gotten ahead in the questline of building up Raven Rock?

Just I found a weird bug, there is a cave, location : Solstheim, Solvjord , that upon entering the screen goes black, then after a while the colours are changing to random...

You should be sure about that, if you are actually on Solstheim. :lol:

unfortunately the game is unplayable , at least under ubuntu 16.10 , I played it till last month under OpenSUSE,, was fine, now , after managed to port back my saves from the old system, is totally unplayable, random change of colours (everything becomes darker, even the menus can't be recognised anymore) when I enter into caves/buildings etc, but is fine on places outside :-(

I just found the reason of that 'bug', this happens all the time when I run the openmw that installed via the ubuntu ppa, but I just downloaded the 0.41(64bit) from the github, and the game runs just fine.

yes, even on starting a new game, seems to me something is broken on the ubuntu's ppa files, I will stick with the binaries from github
