showstopper: stuck in Cannot Save At This Time
Version: TW2 Enhanced, GOG version, Mac OSX
I'm in the Dungeons of the La Valettes, and I get to the point where Oesterlen goes out and tells the guards that the Witcher has escaped - go get him.
At that point, a message appears saying that the game is being autosaved. Fine so far.
But from then on, I cannot save. Any time I press F5, it says "YOU CANNOT SAVE AT THIS TIME." (See screen shot.) And if I bring up the game menu, the LOAD option is there but no SAVE. It's as if I'm stuck in combat mode, but I'm not in combat.
Even when I play through the rest of the dungeon, go outside and talk to Newboy, the ability to save doesn't come back.
I've tried restoring from earlier saves, back to the final dragon chase scene at the end of Blood of His Blood. But whenever I get to where Oesterlen calls the guards, saving gets disabled again - permanently.
I could keep playing, but I know I'll die eventually, and having to redo hours of gameplay does not appeal to me.
What can I do?
