Crash when entering areas from airship

[Guest]

I got the airship and did a number of sidequests, but I haven't done any of the virtue dungeons yet. When I try to enter any of them (aside from the dwarf one, I haven't tried there yet because it seems like you have to go through a dungeon just to reach it), the screen turns black like a normal transition, then an error message ("subscript out of range (-1)") pops up. When I close the error message, the game closes as well.

This happens at any area you need to enter directly from the airship - Sepulcrum Profundus, Dreaming Forest, Silentium Tumulus, Triangle Island, Phoenix Cave. I'm running v3.25, patched to .26 before I started playing. It happens whether I'm running in fullscreen or windowed. Running as administrator has no effect. I tried reinstalling and repatching the game with newly downloaded files and transferring over one of my saves, but the error persists.

The game's been pretty fun so far, so a solution that that lets me finish it would be appreciated. It's especially odd since I was able to access Triangle Island earlier today - I ran through the dungeon section.

Ah, I found a solution. All of my saves were on the airship. Saving on land, loading that file, and heading to one of the airship-entry areas works.

I wonder how that glitch happened, though. Why does it matter where the save is made from?

This is a known bug, but I've never figured out the cause. It might be a fault in the game engine, which is beyond my power to fix. It can always be bypassed by simply changing where you save and reload. Sorry for the inconvenience, errors that entirely halt game play are a serious issue.
