Had a quick look. BG2Fixpack fixed this bug.
You need to be either in Chapter 8 (in ToB part of the game), or need to drop both Imoen and Keldorn from your party, if you want to finish the quest. There is a dialogue scripting issue from vanilla BG2:ToB.

Cool beans. Thanks for the info though, as GemRB users won't be able to install the current BGT-WeiDU version properly.

There is an error in the setup that is trying to tell you that it can't patch bgmain.exe (or Baldur's Gate II for Mac users). However, it only goes there if bgmain.exe (or Baldur's Gate II for Mac users) isn't even in your directory!

No, to my knowledge BGT doesn't include anything from UB.

Probably better to find the TobEx.dll in the archive and copy it over the one installed in your game directory. Note there still is a bug with the saving throw fix at the moment where the Save Vs Spell message will display too many times, but the saves actually work correctly now.

Big Picture
Likely a spawn point creature reference in AR1900 is missing a reference in SPAWNGRP.2DA or the creature spawn itself is missing.
One of these:

Looks fine in vanilla BGT. A mod may have shifted things around a bit.

TobEx beta 0026 released! This is a bug fix release only.
-Class/structure updates
-Cast Spell On Condition Mod: Fixed wrong target text in the contingency info screen
-Expanded Triggers: Fixed certain 0x0XXX triggers like Heard() not working correctly
-Poison Resistance Mod: Added temporary workaround for invalid nParam2 messages caused by BG2Fixpack, until BG2Fixpack is updated
-Remove all race-class restrictions: Disabled dwarven paladins because dwarves do not meet the charisma requirement to be paladins, which caused an infinite loop
-Saving Throw Fix: Fixed a bug where abilities with multiple effects with the save type would only allow a saving throw against the first effect (fixes issues such as saving against an effect but still showing the portrait icon or visual effect)
-Use EFF File Fix: Fixed a bug where the parent effect parameters were used to determine whether the child effect was applied or not (fixes issues such as not getting experience for items that instantly kill undead)

Hey, some mods use resources and variable names all over the shop.
Certainly using your prefix will significantly minimise risk of variable overlap.

Found an issue during my testing of a mod. The dialog fileSpoilerWhen selecting either option in game the first action triggers (ends with DestroySelf). Renaming the TobEx.dll and running bgmain.exe resolved the issue (DestroySelf for "Advance" and just Move for "Retreat").
I cannot reproduce this on a test game in BGT where I gave this script to Gorion! Do you still get the problem?

I can't actually reproduce this problem on my SoA + TobEx only install. Strange, although it may have been from those TobEx builds where SetGlobal and such actions were made instant.

Is it really causing you that much nuisance? We can make a mod that shoots the guy that makes the warning.

Yes, specifics help.
The basic ones from the top of my head are:
-Register a prefix as mentioned above for new game files as well as variable names
-When altering existing files, always code the changes and leave the smallest mark possible (e.g. if you want to change one value in an effect, don't scrub the whole effect). Never overwrite.
-Be aware of possible compatibility issues. This one is tricky because it requires some experience and knowledge about existing mods. I wouldn't worry about this too much if you are just starting out.

Added Polish translation, thanks to Alvarez and "Children of Bhaal" Polish BG Clan. Get it at http://www.shsforums...ads&showfile=74. Don't forget you need the appropriate language pack to get the right sounds for your language.

Probably some global variable didn't get set.
Can you attach your saved game?

If the game crashes when loading Beregost for the very first time, usually it means something is wrong with the Beregost files themselves, rather than a saved game problem.
You can ignore Beregost, shouldn't be a problem with that.

Took yonks for me to look at this.
BALDUR.GAM had a corrupt section in Aerie's entry - don't know what happened, since you are using BGT 1.15.
Fixed BALDUR.GAM (remove the .txt extension) attached which you can put back in your save - that is, if you are still interested after three months.

There is another, although a very small issue concerning familiars which is bugging me in the vanilla BG2 game. Although a savegame can mark a familiar as selected, it isn't when you load the game. This is annoying, for example if you forget to re-select it and want to leave an area, and you see or listen to the dreaded line 'You must gather your party before venturing forth'.
The saved game would need to save the selected state of the familiar, which I don't think there currently is a field for that.
Don't know if this is possible or already mentioned (didn't find anything through search), but would it be possible to remove the (un)pause delay in multiplayer?
That sounds like trying to understand the weather. Bit too hard, I think.

Apologies for late reply. TobEx relies on the highest numbered stat in STATS.IDS to determine how much memory to assign for stats for the game session.

That's a possibility. People who make mods for familiars would have to adjust for that as well though, wouldn't be good for backwards compatibility.
Is there another way you can do companions?

It seems a bit haphazard, because if you use your additional companion with a familiar, the familiar loses all the StrRefs as well.

Do you mean suppress the StrRefs only, or actually allow the familiars to transition areas, enter stores, and pick up items?
