chukaluk: I have been playing CB Undying for very many years, and its one of my favorite games. But I have always hit a bug that I have never seen mentioned in any forum. I've just always been too lazy to register to any forum, and I can usually eventually get passed the bug, although it takes many tries and is very very frustrating and time-consuming.

Here's what happens: I finish the first cut scene with Jeremiah and hear the sound of the hounds. I go down and pick up the health pack in one room and shells/cartridges in another, then head on out to the big open room with the high glass ceiling that I think is an "Atrium." I kill some hounds there and go into another small room that leads to another big open room with staircases. (the entry hall?)

At that point, I always die for no reason. Even if I have killed all of the hounds, it suddenly shows a cut-scene of hounds killing me and running away. I have tried any number of things such as running back into the atrium or other rooms behind the atrium and just sitting there waiting. But after a brief while, and seeing absolutely no hounds, I suddenly die.

I even tried the "Flight" cheat to get up to the balcony where the amp is, but I still die up there, even though there are no hounds there.

I have installed and played the game on three different machines ... my current is a very fast Win 7 64bit gaming machine. But I die at the same place in the game on all machines. It seems to be a combination of place (the area around the Atrium) and time ... i.e. even if I just sit somewhere eventually I die.

As mentioned, saving, reloading and playing over and over (and over and over...) again, I will eventually get past this section and the rest of the game plays fine. Its just this one place that I keep getting killed off.

Any ideas why this is happening and how to avoid it? I don't see any patches/bug fixes that deal with this.

Thanks!

shaboo_de: I've never heard about a bug like this. If you've used the same saves on all three machines, then it's perhaps just a corrupted save.
