Been having an issue during the sidequest where the VI has taken over Jarrahe station.  In the section where you rotate reflective armor plates to direct a beam, every time I correctly direct the beam to the generator, the sound stutters a little and the game immediately crashes.  This is on the physical disc version.

Heh, this has got to be one of the weirdest bugs I've seen in a game.

So, I figured out a way to keep the game from crashing at this point.  I get all the armor plates into position except the first one, then I hit the panel to put the first one into position and then LOOK AWAY, and the game doesn't crash.  I think this bug must have something to do with the electricity effect or something, because every time I tried to watch the generator get blown up, the game crashes, but if I turn the camera the opposite way, it works.

So, if I might quote the Simpsons here, to avoid this issue if you run into it, "Just don't look, just don't look..."

I had this same bug as well. Crashed 5 or 6 times in a row until I came looking for answers. I turned my camera away and I was able to get through it. Thanks

Lol. interesting bug indeed, gonna try the looking away solution, its been crashing on me everytime i get the plates into place.

Ok, the looking away method is tested and working

[lady_dei]

Thanks for the heads-up. I only wish this worked for me lol My game keeps crashing during this mission when I try to enter the living quarters (ironically had no trouble with the mirrors -.-) I'm guessing the entire mission is buggy... sad panda.

[FithNick]

I had the same issue. Thanks for the advice

[Zinras]

I had the same problem, so it's definitely confirmed on my end

[Count Blackwing]

Same problem here I'll try the "look-away-solution"

[TurianRenegade]

I just encountered this issue tonight, and I'll also try the look away solution. :-P

It's not working
The game doesn't crash, but nothing happens if I don't look at the electric charge

interesting idea, there have been multiple posts on this issue, i think its a case of code looking for sprites and/or effects that are supposed to happen when the beam reaches its destination....and it doesnt know what to do so it just freezes and crashes. hopefully there will be a patch....we will see since EA is involved -.- could take a while.

I turned down the resolution - windowed the game and looked away. 5 trys later I am on my way. Thanks for posting.

[PlacidDark]

Thanks a lot of the look away tip, I can now finish my game =D

[Count Blackwing]

Still not working. When I'm not looking at the beam absolutely nothing happens. When I look at it--> CTD

[Rheia]

Same problem. Took about 6 tries to get through it, carefully, carefully trying not to catch the fricking beam on camera, gr.



It seems the lightening effect problem isn't only this quest related. I crash a lot during combat when using biotics like warp and singularity and shooting over them. IFF mission was also hell to get through, kept crashing while looking at the core.

[FithNick]

I only had the issue when the beam hits the far right wall. If I made sure that the first plate was positioned correctly, I had no problems.

[allesiri]

Crashed alot on this area too. I then crashed on the next ground based location that is part of this string of assignments.

[blackzero200]

i can say the look away fix worked for me an i was having this crash problem on the steam ver so i guess this effects both of them

[LokiHades]

As I said in the "Odd crashes" Thread:

"Same issue, during the abandoned ship, the last mirror crashed my game... I pray hope this issue is fixed soon, as this is my latest save, and a lot of my progress would be lost if it doesn't get fixed.

Edit:

Should rename this to Electrical effects causing crashes (Electric beam on abandoned space station, and [SPOILER] the derelict reaper ship core [SPOILER END]).



And the current temp solution is to play in windowed mode from what most people are saying."

[Jayjun]

This is so frustrating. Mine crashes no matter what I try. Must...get...through....this...

[Aidunno]

Seems to be a problem with NVIDIA cards only or am I wrong. Has been mentioned several times before, the station, IFF mission and praetorians all use lightning effects which can cause a crash. If anyone has the problem on something other than NVidia card can they say which card they are using.

[McHump]

so what is the right order to put the mirrors in the first time. so i can then look away and not crash
