There is a cutscene which will fail if you have Althon in your party. This is actually a scene between Icar and Kessa (you meet them both later).

If you are getting a cutscene with just a man in platemail, then you have the bad cutscene. Place this BCS file in your override folder. This will fix the scene for you.

I added this .bcs file to my override folder. Instead of the cutscene with the single figure I now get a cutscene with two figures. It still locks up my game with no dialogs in the cutscene. I tried dropping Althon prior to this cutscene. No effect, it still locks up in this cutscene. I suspect that the triggers must be on aesdale and/or blush. Previous playthroughs without aesdale and blush in my party did not encounter this bug.

I have not tested this file in my game but I had the cutscene error too. It also locked my game (with one NPC in the screen) and it happened having Aesdale and Blush with me and not having them. When it finally worked (in a new game from the start) I had them in my party but the cutscene error did not happen, in fact no cutscene appeared at all and I could continue the game.

A new game shouldn't "fix" the problem. I guess my issue here is that I still don't know which cutscene is the problem. We have several based on Althon. There is one if he is added to the party and Paraway is in it (this should be Kessa and Icar in the cutscene which is the above fix). There is a cutscene if you didn't add Althon because Paraway said not to (this is a scene of Althon and Icar). There should also be several scenes of Althon and Blush together if you have Aesdale and Blush in the party (Althon doesn't need to be in the party for these).

So far, I haven't been able to duplicate this. But that may be because I have the party jump around alot to test and fix other areas. So I may have avoided the trigger that causes the scene. I'll keep trying combinations to see if I can duplicate the problem. The above fix is for the only scene that I know I changed character names and therefore broke a cutscene.
