I'll put this in a spoiler tag because it's new :P
well, I got into the glass house where I supposed to move the walls... to get to emmet, but I can't click ANYTHING, the mouse thing isn't even glowing and I tried hovering over everything... I can
t even click the door to get out!


MOD EDIT: Working savegame attached to this post.

    I dunno, I've not tried the Windows version. I'm on a mac.
    I don't even know if anyone managed to run the Windows version yet, it asks for a serial.

    I'm at this problem too. I have a PC, so this glitch isn't exclusive to Mac users.

    Telltale what is this.

    It's a good thing I wasn't alone on this. Just about to reinstall, hopefully that will fix it.

    dxdy, can you use the spoiler text and tell us what it is supposed to be done in the glass house?

    Is it any pixel-sized hot spot, or what? I dont get any clickable area.

    Is this fixed on the newer version? I'm using the "German installer" version and I have this problem.
  • Ban88Ban88
    edited June 2011
    Problem seems to be fixed with the new installer. I had originally the German one, and it didn't work. Recommended you reinstall the game, should fix the problem!

    No, mines the english installed version and I'm still getting it.

    Um, I don't know where the save button is. I see a "Return to Game" button and a "New Game" button, but no save button.

    WHAT IS THIS

    Those with the problem fixed, did you have to restart your game or could you carry on from the save point?

    Yup stuck there too. PC version with proper installer. Nothing to click on or anything. I'm just stuck.

    I've talked to the lead tester for BttF Ep. 5, and it sounds like this is due to a very intermittent bug that was believed to be fixed. The bug seems to be linked to skipping dialog during the "glass house" puzzle, which causes certain elements of the puzzle to not appear when they should. We're looking into it, but in the meantime, you should be able to avoid it by NOT skipping any dialog during the "glass house" puzzle sequence.

    Apologies to those getting stuck here. If you get stuck without skipping any dialog, please let us know in this thread. Any other specific information you can provide about the bug would be useful as well. Thanks!

    I didn't think I skipped dialog... I'll give it another check.

    Edit: Game autosaved as soon as I went into the glass house. Great...

    I'm pretty sure I didn't skip any dialogue - why would I want to on the first run through?

    I skipped dialogue on the phone some and once when I accidentally talked to Det. Parker, but never inside the Atlas Glass House.

    If you're playing on a Mac, did you open it through the Applications folder link for a previous episode? If you're on a PC, what shortcut did you use to launch the episode?

    Yup. Same here. I know I didn't skip any dialog.

    I restarted the game without re-installing it, and it seems I can progress normally now.

    Still can't find a save button though.

    I launched the game on Steam, BTW. Not the Steam version, just the Telltale version launched on Steam.

    Same issue with the glass house, and didn't skip any dialogue in that sequence so far as I am aware. I skipped dialogue a bunch of times when using the private phone helmet.

    On Mac: Never skipped any glass house dialog - but the bug persists. I opened the game through its own link in the applications folder. :confused:

    Just out of curiosity... those who didn't have an issue with this, did you do the stuff with the phone first?

    I just re started the game and I went straight to the house of glass part and I'm able to continue.

    The problem stays the same.

    I've installed the new version, used my old save game though (however it's a savegame from before entering the glass house... at least with Doc and Emmett in it, as I've entered it before when they weren't there).

    So obviously it doesn't have to do with skipping dialogue in the glass house scene, but something that was done earlier in the game... right?

    Re-tried without skipping dialog... still doesn't work. The specific information is that you can't select ANYTHING in the room.

    ok, I re-installed it on a PC and it works (brand new save file, no previous eps). I also didnt do anything in the options.
    I can click stuff in the glass house now

    So the only solution is to REPLAY THE WHOLE GAME FROM THE BEGINNING AND DO THE GLASS HOUSE THING FIRST? Aww.... guys you should really hire new beta testers
