I tried to reinstall the game and to restart from the begining of the chapter and I've deleted the props file, I've still the same error.

Can you post dxdiags to help us locate the error?

Windows XP: Go to your start menu and click on run. Type in "dxdiag" and hit enter
Windows Vista / 7: Press the windows key on your keyboard or click on the start menu. Type in "dxdiag" and hit enter.

Now click on the button that says "save all information". It will prompt you to save a file. You then need to zip that file to post it here.

[Choucas]

This is the same problem that has been reported here :

[Machin]

I have the same issue.

I sent you my dxdiags by email, the 30th October, as required (issue 53623).
You didn't reply yet. Please provide us a fix of this bug, or at least reply to this message!

Thanks in advance.

[Machin]

Up!
Still no fix for that bug?

[NyxH]

C'est incroyable que le problème ne soit toujours pas fixé au bout de 6 mois pour un bug bloquant. On se fout un peu de la gueule du monde là.

[Darkmeteor]

C'est clairement pas cool.

[The Psychowizard]

What a pity.... Was about to offer the game to someone who doesn't speak one english word. I will definitely not... lost a sale.

A crash, as any blocking bug, should be fixed faster than in 6 months



Vraiment dommage, j'étais sur le point d'offrir le jeu a quelqu'un qui ne parle pas un mot d'anglais... Je ne le ferai pas... une vente de perdue.

Un crash, comme n'importe quel bug bloquant, devrait être réglé en moins de 6 mois

Hi,

This is currently being investigated here, but we don't have a patch ready at the moment. The bug can be bypassed by changing the language to English for long enough to get past that section, and then you can change it back to your chosen language. I definitely apologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
Michael

[Machin]

Thanks for your reply, but your bypassing solution doesn't work : on the game, I don't think that it is possible to change the language (it is a full French version), so I can not turn it to English in order to pass this section.
We still wait for a fix...

Hello Michael Parks !

I don't know if you are an actor between us and the TOMI developpers but Monkey Island's fans are not very glad about your assistance.

You look the first post of this thread ? 6 months in order to get any answer, and 6 others months for a patch maybe ? I follow the Monkey Island serie since the beginning. I enjoy each game. More particulary the last one. Really excellent ! But not the assistance for this game.

Now, i will know if i want get a great game, a great life or a great mentality, i must be Eng or something like that.

Seriously, just tell me why TellTale is waiting 2 years to develop a patch with 4 or 6 lines with java code or something like that ?

It's a great shame, you don't think?

An angry Fan !

And forgive my poor eng language, i'm a bad fr who wasted my time in order to get a answer who will inc in 6 others months.

[_Wario_]

up !
And don't let your fans without any answers, please !
THANKS !

[The Psychowizard]

Hi Michael,


Thanks for your answer (it took some time...but thanks even...)

Your solution doesn't work.
If you change the language, you can't load your saved game.

sorry.

hi
I buy the complete pack of Monkey island to my girlfriend who is a big fan of Guybrush in july 2011 and i can't finish the game i am stoped at chapter 4 because THE BUG IS STEEL HERE. YEAH I'm French why did you ignore your customers during 8 month? No response?
Because the game is finished and it stop to make money? Monkey Island don't merit to be played in FRANCE?

I'm angry because you are a great studios and you let the gamers with a bad feelings.
I hope you read my post and you can assign a developers or internship developpers to fix this

Thank you

The revenche of captain CHUCK

[Choucas]

I really don't understand that you can sell a game that is not completable.
It's an episodic game and 2 of the 5 parts can't be finished because an annoying bug.

As I guess we will never have a fix (8 months without a correct answer), I'm very disappointed of Telltale. I think I will never buy again a game from you or advice my friends on your games.

You've lost at least a customer.

[Choucas]

up :confused:

[The Psychowizard]

Still nothing?

[Blacki]

Hi folks... i have a solution for all steam version users that may help all of you and telltale is not able to figure out.

Take a look at this. But it´s in german.

Blacki! Ce type est un genie! Merci a toi!
Il suffit sonc de renommer le fichier: \Steam\SteamApps\common\tales of monkey island - chapter 4\Pack\env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg en \Steam\SteamApps\common\tales of monkey island - chapter 4\Pack\env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg.old.
Et le tour est joué. Ca fonctionne au poil! des mois et des mois que j'attends ca.

Blacki! This guy is a genius! Thank you very much!
We just have to remane that: \Steam\SteamApps\common\tales of monkey island - chapter 4\Pack\env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg in that \Steam\SteamApps\common\tales of monkey island - chapter 4\Pack\env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg.old.
And that's all. It work!!! so many month and finally it work!

[Blacki]

Yes, but finaly it was my last Telltale Game forever ;)

[The Psychowizard]

Merci à tous les deux, pour la solution et pour la synthèse, cela fonctionne pour moi aussi !

PS : Un grand merci au support Telltale qui a su traiter avec efficacité un problème bloquant transmis il y a presque un an

Thanks to both, for the solution and the synthesis, that works for me too !

PS : Many thanks to the Telltale Support that managed with efficiency a blocking bug opened nearly a year ago

[The Psychowizard]

Et hummmm... Je ne sais pas si cela a un lien mais je ne peux de toute facon pas terminer l'épisode 4 à cause de ce que je suppose être un nouveau bug : impossible de parler à De Singe pour le distraire pendant son combat contre Elaine... Dites moi si cela vient de ma partie ou si c'est pour tout le monde pareil :( Je vais regarder la fin de l'épisode sur une video youtube pour suivre l'histoire :(

Well ... don't know if it's linked but I can't finish the fourth episode (new bug?) I just can't talk to De Singe to distract him while he's fighting Elaine... Please tell me if you have the same problem or if i'm the only one :( gonna watch the end on a youtube video only to know the story :(

Après quelques essais, il s'avère qu'on peut bien finir le jeu en vf, en renommant 3 fichiers qui posent problème. Il faut juste pousser un peu plus loin la méthode citée ci-dessus par benkenobi (que la force soit avec toi:D) (chez moi ça marche impeccablement).

On commence par aller dans common/monkey island chapter4/Pack, puis on neutralise ces fichiers en ajoutant .old à la fin de leur nom, ce qui donne :
env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg.old
env_flotsamjunglenight_cs_deSingeRunsOff_e1_8.chor e.old
flotsamJungleNight_guybrush_desinge.dlg.old

à la place de :
env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg
env_flotsamjunglenight_cs_deSingeRunsOff_e1_8.chor e
flotsamJungleNight_guybrush_desinge.dlg

Ça prend moins de 2 minutes, et on peut enfin profiter de la fin du jeu ;)

Encore bravo à Telltale pour ne pas être capable de corriger un problème qui aurait surement monopolisé un stagiaire le temps de boire un café.

Et quant aux joueurs, profitez bien de la fin de ce jeu somme toute sympa :)

After a few tests, it appears that we may well finish this game in french version, renaming 3 files that are problematic. You just have to push a little further the method mentioned above by benkenobi (may the force be with you:D) (at home it works flawlessly).

We start by going into common / chapter4/Pack monkey island, then we neutralize these files by adding .old at the end of their name, which gives:
env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg.old
env_flotsamjunglenight_cs_deSingeRunsOff_e1_8.chor e.old
flotsamJungleNight_guybrush_desinge.dlg.old

instead of:
env_flotsamJungleNight.dlg
env_flotsamjunglenight_cs_deSingeRunsOff_e1_8.chor e
flotsamJungleNight_guybrush_desinge.dlg

It takes less than 2 minutes, and we can finally enjoy the end of the game ;)

Again, congratulations to Telltale for not being able to correct a problem that would probably monopolized an intern time to drink a coffee.

And for the players, enjoy the end of this quite nice game (after all) :)
