Endless loading on the payback quest with Teresa

When I’m done taking Teresa for a walk, the game just stuck on loading screen. But birds are singing in the background somehow.

P.S. This is frustrating. I mean losing hours of progression because of bugs is absolutely unacceptable.
Yea, very entertaining save system, schnapps-screwaps and etc, but make some kind of shadow-saving that is unreachable for player but saves a game every 5 mins to backup in case of crash or stuck.

Thought it would be safe to rush back and take her out before noon. Just a little walk… cost me a nights thieving.

Exactly the same problem here. Finished conversation at the river then started the last conversation again front of the mill. After that loading screen stacked with sounds in the background.

btw: all the drivers are up to date

The same happened to me. Luckily I had saved just before starting the quest so just reloaded and missed this quest altogether. Shame.

Same here.

It’s the only ‘black screen of death’ I ran into after patch 1.4.1.

I’m having the same issue as well. After responding to her after the run, we appear at the mill and she gives me the same dialog. I’m forced to repeat it and then it gives me the “loading” screen with sounds in the background. No way to get out of it.

Same here double conversation + B(lack loading)SOD after walk-by-the-river-date.
does anyone have a workaround or somethin? i think ill just try taking her on another date for now but at some stage ill have to do the walk at the river if i want to finish the quest right?
i love this game by the way. please keep fixing those bugs warhorse, its one of the greatest rpgs of all times; haters gonna hate
cheers

Same here, still present in 1.4.3

As soon as the loading screen ends and you appear back at the mill with Theresa, just take a few steps away from her to prevent the repeated dialogue. You only have a brief moment to do this, so it’s best to just hold down the key/joystick before the loading screen finishes. If done right, she’ll start playing her correct dialogue.

If this doesn’t work, just skip all the cutscenes (you will still have to make your dialogue choices) when they’re sitting down together. This is reported to also fix the issue.
