    Anyone know anything about a bug which causes the game to hang after you kill Ravel (basically waiting for the shadows-appearing cutscene to start)?

    I'm running a full-install of the 4cd version, patched.

    The bug only happens if I kill Ravel too quickly (i.e., with two quick backstabs, before she casts heal).

    Well, since you know how to avoid the bug... don't kill her too quickly :p

    It might be you killed her before all of her scripts could properly initialize (I remember this happening on a few occasions in BG2)

    Well, killing her quickly is the point, since it was part of planning a speed run through PS:T...

    Alright, I see your point now.

    There's nothing I can think of really. You could time it and see exactly how long you should wait so as to avoid the bug, but if it's indeed a script-related issue there's nothing that will solve it. Since there's no console in PST you can't even set the variables yourself (short of using Near Infinity, but task-switching to it in mid-game will not look very good on a speed run video!)
