Hello, started playing Arcanum again and have downloaded Chris Beddoes' Car Arcanum mod. The problem is that Virgil moves painfully slowly at the crash site and don't know what causes it. Tried the Search facility and got loads of topics but all seem to be about how slow the computers are rather than just Virgil. I've recruited Althea (part of the mod I think) at the crash site and she's fine. Is it the mod or something else that's causing it? Thanks in advance.
Have you checked that Virgil is not weighed down? He may have picked up lots of junk from the ground. Do you have any other hacks or modules installed? They have a tendency to screw each other up. This question should probably have been posted in module discussion. EDIT: I see the powers that be have moved the post thus making my comment look like the deranged ravings of a madman. (Somewhat like when the FBI reprogram your family and destroy all records of your existence).
Tongs I'm so embarrassed, that's what it was, too much encumbrance (blush). My apologies. Got another general question for anyone, I've collected some keys and there's a section in the journal for keys. I last played this game about 2-3 years ago and dimly remember I got a keyring from somewhere. None of the merchants in Shrouded Hills sell one, is it just a case of getting one from another town or just keep refreshing their stock until it appears? Thanks.
I don't remember that there are any in Shrouded Hills, but you can buy it off a general trade merchant in Tarant (I'm sure that he has it - his store is just pass the bridge leading into town ... and first or second building on your left)
