I'm encountering a strange bug in the Haunted Cathedral level, or at least I'm pretty sure it's a bug. There's a house with two Haunts in it (the one where you find the key under the door mat), and one of the Haunts appears to be immune to damage in my game. I can kill the first Haunt easily enough, but nothing seems to affect the second one. I've tried backstabbing it, but my sword just passes right through it without causing damage. Arrows also pass through it without hitting it, and explosive mines don't go off even if it walks right over top of them.
Anyone ever seen this?

seen it in SS2, an extremely rare bug that causes AIs to lose physics. do you have a save? if you do, share it here.

I encountered something similar in Masks in T2. A human guard became invincible to all attacks. Was running in Newdark so no idea whether it is a Newdark specific bug.
Only happened once in the entire game.

The same happened to me in the Haunted Cathedral (and with the transparent ghosts, too) and also with one guard in Assassins, in the basement, after pickpocketing Ramirez. The guard was blind and the only way to put him to sleep was by means of the blackjack. All this after installing tfix v1.18d or v1.18e (don't remember the exact version)
Rolled back to version 1.18c, and everything was OK again.

this is an original bug, not specific to NewDark, or TFix (so rolling back TFix versions is useless), it's always been there, but as I've said, it's very rare. reload/restart usually fixes it. it would be really, really nice to have a save with such a broken AI - the chance this could be fixed via the editor are low, but hey, the Raven may still be watching..

How can I upload a save file here? I only see options to insert images or videos.
Reloading didn't work, although I only tried the most recent save because the previous one was the start of the level. I did eventually manage to kill the Haunt by using flash bombs though.

You can upload it somewhere else, MegaFile maybe, and post the link here.
Edit. :D Mediafire was what I was trying to think of!

or sendspace, mediafire.. include all the saves from that level, please.

That's not the same thing at all. That's, like, the opposite of this thing.
